does crimping really increase power output of micro usb?

I have no fucking clue dude.

Kek. Are you serious?

Semi related, any way to fix the locks on these?

Yeah, the one hook seems to be stuck in a bit and just falls out of my phone

The spring is loose. You probably need to take it apart and increase spring tension.
Or maybe grab it gently with some pliers and pull out a little.

i guess you could try to bend it out with a small pliers.

next time dont buy meme braided cables and just get a 5 pack from monoprice for the same price and throw them out when they get fucked up

Am I the only one seeing the connector not coming out of the body straight?
Paying more for a cable when the ends aren't even done well is retarded.

a-at least until the internal clips break, which is hopefully never

Yes. In fact, you should crimp it to the point the metal contacts scratch each other so you get more surface contact. The more contact, the more power.
