Review on Fasgear USB C to USB C Cable 1.6ft: Fast Charge, 10Gbps USB 3.1 Gen 2 Type C Cord with E-Marker Chip - Compatible for MacBook, Matembook, i-Pad Air, Galaxy S21, SSD, Pixel 5/4/XL (Red) by David Edwards

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Superior and reliable Gen2 10Gbps data transfer (1.6ft cable)

C Gen2 10Gbps cable in terms of throughput. I did not test the charging performance. This 1.6ft mid-length cable is excellent and with a durable USB-C Gen2 adapter/chassis and a high-performance NVMe SSD, you'll get around 990Gb/s read and 960Gb/s write. I have not tried other lengths of this cable. This cable fits snugly when plugged into multiple USB-C jacks. Anything more solid creates tension during connection/disconnection. Some cables are very loose, which can be a problem. Most USB C Gen2 10Gb/s cables are terrible, the longer (>3ft) the worse. Many short and medium cables also perform poorly, but this cable performs well based on my 5-10 tests. Buying a Gen2 10Gb/s cable longer than 3 feet is a risky gamble. See attached image for details.

Pros
  • 10Gbps data transfer
Cons
  • Cable shorter than other options
