Review on πŸ”Œ Anker Premium Nylon USB-C to USB-A Fast Charging Type C Cable 2-Pack - Silver, 3ft, for Samsung Galaxy S10/S9/S8/Note 8, LG V20/G5/G6 & More by Christopher Todd

Good cable great for iPad Pro 2018

This is a beautifully made cable, love the quality and feel. This is only made better by how accessible it is. My only concern is that it only charges my iPad Pro 11 2018 model at around 7W from the Apple iPad charger, USB-A. I have several of these old stones lying around from previous purchases. I also have a USB-A charging cabinet, so I was happy to find this USB-C to USB-A cable. If it were possible to get the full 12 watts out of an Apple charger, that would be about 50% more. I sent a similar message to Anker and am awaiting their response. Conclusions for the iPad Pro 11 inch 2018 - Charging speed still good enough for overnight charging - High quality cable optics - Good price - Great brand photos. (using a Drok USB tester and wall tester along with an Apple 12w box) - One photo shows 8.5w when plugged in and 7.19w after powering - Another photo shows 5, 06V and 1.42A. - Some users report 12W charger. It takes about 4.5 hours to charge a 10.5 inch iPad. Just a guess, with this cable the 11" should be fully charged after a full night of 8 hour charging. (Not tested) **Both the product title and description led me to believe it would work well* * Anker USB-C Cables [2 Pack 6ft] High Quality USB-C to USB-A Nylon Cable for Type-C Fast Charging for Samsung Galaxy S9/ S8/ Note 8 iPad Pro 2018 LG V20/ G5/ G6, Pixel 2 XL, etc. - Universal Compatibility: Designed to work seamlessly with any device that uses a USB-C port.
