Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons
The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Well made cable with durable coating and end covers. It feels durable, thick, and sturdy. It's well coated and works just how it should.

The amazonbasics usb-c 3. Charger is one of the best. It works well for charging and data. It has a fast data rate and works for high-speed charging.

Don't get suckered into paying markup for your cables at big box stores. Compares favorably to the anker powerline 2 series.

Gen2 to usb-a cable - 3-foot, white b085sbgz7g)✅ truly a gen 2 cable. Gen2, usb 3. Gen 1) cables. Allows a direct connection to ausb-a port without the use of a separate adapter.

Usb 3. Gen2 (10 gbps) tested using wd sn750 nvme in ssk enclosure (b07mnfh1px) via usb 3, gen2. Support for 5gbps, 10gbps and 20gbps. My phone specs to the highest. There's nothing to really indicate that this cable is faster than my older usb3.



Cons

It's like the cable shielding is off-gassing. Wont maintain a connection, regardless of if its in a car or just a basic charger.

I have a small collection of amazonbasics cables that i've gathered over the past few years, and they've all been very reliable for me.


I bought it mainly for my nintendo switch pro controller and it works great as well for my samsung phone, these amazonbasics ca...  Read More
