Review on πŸ”Œ YCS Basics Black 3ft USB 2.0 Mini B Male to Mini B Female Cable: High-Quality Connector for Data Transfers by Antonio Curry

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Connected well but just broke when disconnected

***Update*** I have to apologize for the bad rating at first. I have a PapaGo 760 car DVR with a backup camera. It turns out that the manufacturer of the cable for PapaGo made a "proprietary" cable. I tried several extensions from other brands, none of them worked properly. For now, I'm retracting my original review and will be contacting Papago about false reports. I was told any extension would work. The cable they provide is too short and their rep told me to buy a mini USB extender and I'll be fine. The reason this cable broke was because the cable Papago supplied had a too small connector inside. I've tried several mini ISB cables with the PapaGo camera and the pugs on the devices are standard. I believe the cable was designed to fit snugly given the nature of the device and provide a solid connection. Maybe this extension will fit perfectly, even if it's tight like most new cables and devices. However, I believe this update should reflect that the issue was NOT the quality of the YCS cable, although I am wondering why it connected the fin but broke when disconnected. I strongly recommend PapaGo dashcams, I do NOT recommend using an extension cord. Too bad that YCSBroke effortlessly extends when connecting the cable. Very badly done. There is no CC at all. Now I have to swap both cables. The cable I extended had no connection issues before, it was a very standard fit when connected. The plastic center of this extension (which holds the pins) broke in my cable. Connected normally, but when disconnected it just broke.

Pros
  • That's done
Cons
  • too stupid
