Review on ๐Ÿ”Œ Amazon Basics High Speed USB 3.0 Cable - 9 Feet (2.7 Meters) - A-Male to B-Male: Buy Now! by Jess Gunderson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

but it looks like the usb cable should last much longer than .

Bought four of them. One of them stopped working after two years. How does a USB cable stop working? There was a slight (and I mean slight) tug on one connector due to the tight fit, but it wasn't anywhere near the abuse I've put other cables through. I guess for $4 I can't complain too much, but it seems like the USB cable should last a lot longer than the protocol version it was designed for. On the plus side, I didn't have to change the scanner. I was about to give up and the last thing on my mind when troubleshooting was the cable. Very strange.

Pros
  • 10X MORE TRANSMISSION SPEED: USB 3.0 consumes less power but has a higher output power of up to 4.8 Gbit/s. Compared to the transfer speed of USB 2.0, USB 3.0 is 10 times faster
Cons
  • Weight
