I bought this primarily to use my Xbox One controller on my PC while sitting across the room with my PC connected to my TV screen. He does his job well and without problems. The long cord was more than adequate. for what I need it for and both ends of the cable are firmly connected. The end of the USB feels like it will slide out with vigorous movement, but the micro-USB end is secure. The cable itself feels remarkably thin and light. Time will tell, but it's still a solid product for the price. It also works on my Galaxy S7 and supports fast charging if I ever need it. Conclusion: A good buy and serves its purpose.
