Review on πŸ”Œ Cable Matters 3-Pack Black 3ft Micro USB 2.0 Cables by Brendan Thorpe

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Well made and at a good price.

These cables are excellent. Solid build quality, solid phone connectivity, and I don't have to remove my phone case to charge it. I have one for the car charger, one for the wall charger and one for connecting the phone to the computer in USB mass storage mode. Less than a year later, all three fell apart. One of them stays connected to no device, the other two stay, but all three suffer from the same issues. The USB Type A side is disassembled. Nothing protects the metal shell, so in many cases the shell remains in the device to which it is connected when the USB connector is removed. It took me a heck of a lot of time to get the case out of one of my chargers as it was recessed and difficult to reach. Meanwhile, the Micro B-side flexes very easily, simply due to the weight of the thinnest cable dangling from the edge. Surfaces when connected to a phone.

Pros
  • Stable test results
Cons
  • Could have chosen a newer model
