Review on πŸ”Œ Anker Powerline III Flow USB-C to USB-C Cable, 100W 3ft, Fast Charging USB 2.0 Type C Cable for MacBook Pro 2020, iPad Pro 2020, iPad Air, Galaxy S20, Pixel, Switch, LG - Cloud White by Steve French

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Charges, but obviously at a slow data rate... and not suitable for connecting an external display

The cable is rated for at least 60W of charging power. However - and this is a big warning! - It can't be used to connect my MacBook Pro to my monitor via USB-C... So if you need a nice soft cable just for charging and charging, this will do. However, if you need it for something more data intensive, don't waste your money! To be honest, I feel a little cheated as this shortcoming should have been explicitly mentioned in the product description, but the description is rather evasive in this regard and avoids addressing the possibilities of the data. It is absolutely essential these days that baud rate information is included in USB-C cables. Surprised and disappointed, anchor. In short: If you only need one cable for fast charging, then that's it. But if you're using a USB-C cable for data transfer, don't waste your money --> look elsewhere.

Pros
  • Robust design
Cons
  • Only available in black
