Good point, but at least if the issue is with the camera not charging the battery you could use an external battery charger.

I've had problems with the USB on my NX500, both with file transfers and charging. I dug out an old phone charger with a fixed cable and that seems to work consistently, compared to some chargers with removable cables that are flakier.
