Review on Rankie USB-C to USB-A 3.0 Cable - Type C Charging and Data Transfer - 3 Pack, 3 ft by Melissa Warren

Revainrating 4 out of 5

The USB-C connector end is too bulky and difficult to insert.

The cables are good and of good quality, except for the soft plastic connector at the end of the USB-C cable where it fits snugly on the smartphone with a protective case (in my case it's Nexus 5X). Bumper housing (non-OEM). ) is that it's too bulky to fit inside. Low tech solution - I took a sharp knife (a precision blade will do) and carefully cut the excess material off the side of the modified plug material at an angle, which took about 3 minutes with a little trial and error. It now sits firmly and securely in the case without loosening or, worse, not being able to plug in. The prices paid are great - recommend Ranky to change the design of his future USB-C cable to a thinner connector/softer plastic material that fits better in many smartphone cases. It's not a problem if you connect without using a case, but most of us do so in case the case is accidentally dropped. A simple design change will solve this small problem. Otherwise, I'm satisfied - the cable worked with different chargers to power the smartphone.
