The one of mine that looks like this is the one that I always carry around and use mid day when I kill the battery after leaving Ingress running.
The rest stay in the house all the time or in my PC bag and only get used nightly. Those show no wear like this.
The interesting thing about the photo is that one of them is even a 3rd party cable.

In Japan it is the chocolate sales. Women buy men chocolate (mostly giri / obligation).
Men then have to reciprocate on White Day a month later.

For anyone curious, the white day article sums it up pretty good.
In Japan, Valentine's Day is typically observed by girls and women presenting chocolate gifts (either store-bought or handmade), usually to boys or men, as an expression of love, courtesy, or social obligation. Handmade chocolate is usually preferred by the recipient because of the perception of sincerity, effort, and emotion put into a home-made confection.[4] On White Day, the reverse happens: men who received a honmei-choco (本命チョコ?, 'chocolate of love') or giri-choco (義理チョコ?, 'courtesy chocolate')[5] on Valentine's Day are expected to return the favor by giving gifts.[6] Traditionally, popular White Day gifts are cookies, jewelry, white chocolate, white lingerie, and marshmallows.[7] Sometimes the term literally, sanbai gaeshi (三倍返し?, 'triple the return') is used to describe the generally recited rule that the return gift should be two to three times the worth of the Valentine's gift.[8]

Do Japanese men like chocolate a lot more than American men? Seems an odd thing to universally buy for men.
