There is no click when connecting, making it less secure. Update: 1 year later and it no longer works

I've had this cable for a few months now. The price was right and it served its purpose. This is the only USB-C cable I have that doesn't click slightly when plugged into an outlet. Seems trivial enough, but it's a pretty nice click, and most importantly, it helps keep the cable in place. I use this for my Macbook 16" mostly on my lap and if I move a bit the cable slips out easily. Enough to finish charging. I have to keep checking if it's still connected which is quite annoying .If your laptop is mainly on a desk it doesn't really matter but unfortunately it poses a problem for me when using this cable.Other than that detail which may be few people it works as expected. .Update: Bought this cable on 12/16/19. Today is 12/6/20. It has not been abused in any way. Just normal use, especially around USB ports. My MacBook stopped charging a few days ago. I had 3 Stars but now down to 1. Apart from very early iPhone chargers I don't think I've ever had a cable completely fail in a year I'm in the process of buying a new cable but it won't be this brand again.
