Is My Port Loose & Volta Questions

I'm considering buying one of those 6ft Magnetic Volta Charging Cables for my Galaxy S7 but am concerned about my non-reversable Micro USB ports condition. It's definitely not as tight as the first month of ownership although the included USB charging cord can still suspend the phone.

 

1: Should I try seeing if my manufactures or 1 year extended accidental damage warranty will replace it or is it still plenty tight enough?

 

2: Will I be able to use that Volta cable with my included USB to wall adapter?

 

3: Will that be able to charge at the full wall amperage/voltage?

 

*EDIT: I've owned the phone for just under a year & unplug/plug it in to charge about twice a day.

  1. The port usually gets loose over time. You can see what they say about replacing it under warranty, but they'll probably just tell you that's normal and not covered.
  2. Yes.
  3. 5V@2.4Amps max according to the specs on their site, however I see numerous reviews saying it works fine for fast charging so YMMV (Your Mileage May Vary).

Thanks, I'll try contacting them this week & regardless of their answer I'll probably buy the cord soon anyway.
