Good quality cable!

You usually can't go wrong with StarTech.com products, and this cable is no exception. It's a lot thicker than the Sausung OEM cable that came with my Galaxy S8. Hopefully this is due to better shielding and/or thicker conductors. When you coil the cable it tends to bend into nice wide bends as opposed to the tight, twisted bends that an OEM cable is capable of. And because this cable is thicker than the OEM cable, it cannot be coiled up as tightly. Both are positive in my opinion. If you're looking for a cable for a semi-permanent connection to something like an external hard drive, then this would be a good choice for that purpose. My Galaxy S8 confirms that the cable supports fast charging. However, this is a locked corporate phone that doesn't allow data transfer, so I can't say if this cable actually supports data and at what speed. FWIW, it is described as "USB 3.1 Gen 2 - 10 Gbps" on StarTech.com.

Pros
  • Computers and Accessories
