Highlights

Quality


It has high quality connections and makes a tight connection.


The simple fact is this, the cable is extremely well engineered and appears solidly built.


Thick, braided shielding - none of the flimsy plastic you get on your standard iphone charger.


Personal opinion:honestly this thing is incredibly rugged and wraps up easily once you are done using it.

Price


Which brings me to the only drawback of this cable: the price.


00 on a new caldigit hub with thunderbolt 4 ports.


Currently december of 2022 it is on sale for $129 which is how much i spent, and that's still pushing it.


The $159 sticker price is really high and i'd wait for a sale.

Shipping


X, usb 4, displayport, power delivery up to 100 watts, etc.

Competitiveness


It’s a rather versatile cable that feels snug once you plug the cable in, which compared to other brands that feel meh.


The cable i replaced was a $70 name brand competitor and supposedly tb4 certified, but apple clearly has some secret sauce in this unit.

    Technical standpointapple went all out on the interior design of this cable between the chipset and drivers for the signal from endtoend

    Cheaper brands aren’t going to get you the same signal or quality for the transmission speeds of 40gbps so i would keep that in mind if that ends up being your reasoning for this cable


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Also it’s rated for 100 watts so this might be good for people with devices like the steam deck asus rog ally or the legion go which all require somewhere in that ballpark of charge rate
