my phone doesn’t have ir or 3.5mm, and when I charge it laying flat at night on my bed side table the cord floats free off the edge so I can see the screen and turn off the alarm in the morning. With the cord on the other side it would be supported, not stressing the port on the motherboard and be closer to where my cable come up from behind the table.
I’m the same way but on my end table or night stand or whatever, I just scoot my phone towards the top enough so several inches of cord are supported.
Charge it before bed or while you get ready in the morning. It’s not good to leave it sit on charge all night anyway. My phone down to maybe 20% in the morning, and the hour I get ready and 20 minute commute, I can get to 70-80% NP.
I always feel if the cord goes over the top when you wake up to grab it and pull down you end up pulling the cord out of the phone anyway because the cord has resistance hanging off the end. Though, the cord I use is a heavier duty one I’ve had for years with a braided sheath to protect it, that might also add weight making it difficult and drag more.
