Difficult conditions! Untenable!

UPDATE: The cable has failed after less than 1.5 years of light use. The cable has never been moved. It stayed plugged into the phone's charger and connected to the phone on a daily basis. So yes, it was used; but no, it hasn't been abused, twisted/unwrapped, secured, moved, etc. I expected this cable to last MUCH longer. Also, I don't see any warranty information for this item. So buyers beware. -------------- This is the heaviest and strongest phone cord I have ever seen. I bet it will last a long time with no problems. In short: Pros: β€’ Very durable and likely to last a long time β€’ USB-C connector fits snugly into phone jack β€’ Cable strain relief is well made and should prevent the cable from snagging. Damage/wear where it enters the charging head housing β€’ Charges faster on the Galaxy Note10+ (most aftermarket cables don't!) β€’ Looks great! Disadvantages: β€’ None yet; but I'd like more size options - the only other cable like this is 1.5". Long Bit: The USB-C connector fits snugly into my phone's port - no hesitation. The body of the charging head is housed in a solid aluminum casing , and the cable strain relief at its base is rigid with a slight bend to prevent undue stress at the point where the braided cable connects to the case. Seems very well done! My Galaxy Note10+ charges fast and so do I soon found that non-original cables I had charged slower even when plugged into the Samsung charger that came with the phone.I compared charging speeds between all my cables and the one that came with my phone and none of them literally hit the speed, so I looked through a lot of cables trying to find one that charged faster and asked the manufacturers if their cable would work with my phone. Everyone said no or called me names. The only one who said yes was QCEs for this cable. And it works! It charges at the same speed as my Samsung OEM cable (only 1m long). There can be no greater happiness! Note: I have yet to try this with a Samsung 45W (custom) charger. If this cable doesn't charge faster I will post an update.

Pros
  • Easy setup
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.
