If the cord wiggles I lose my connection. Any fix besides new iPhone? iPhone 6s.

Are you sure it's the charging port that's loose and not a bad cable? You can always go to www.ifixit.com and see if they have a routine to correct a loose charging port if it's really the port. New iPhones are expensive but Apple is now selling refurbished iPhones in their on line refurbished store. The phones all come with a one year warranty and have been placed in a new outer case and have a new battery. Essentially they are like new and you save at least 15%.

Yes, it's the charging port. Multiple cables, new and old, do the same thing. Wondering what Apple would charge to replace headphone lightning cable dock assembly.

I don't believe they would change it out but rather would sell you a refurbished replacement instead. That's why you should consider taking a look at the phones they have for sale in their on line refurbished store. Most of them are 6s and 6s+ models.

If you're handy at doing repairs, you might want to take a look at the repair for your phone at www.ifixit.com. They sell parts in addition to repair instructions.
