Type of review

. Please note that the cable works. However I am only giving it 1 star because the cable is poor quality and cheap and to make sure my review is in the negative column and not the positive column where I think it has more impact as I personally read reviews I use to determine if a product is worth buying, ignoring the positive reviews and reading the negative reviews, which I find more helpful and informative. So the reason I gave this cable a bad rating is that it is rock solid and bendableโ€ฆ

Pros
  • . Cables and Connections
Cons
  • Could have opted for a newer model

No complaints best at Computer Accessories & Peripherals

I ordered this cable because I couldn't tell which of the supposedly legitimate Samsung chargers weren't fake because they each had reviews saying they they were fake and others said they weren't, on the same product. Since I already had 2 power supplies, I didn't need them anymore. So when I saw the Amazon branded version I jumped at it because I trust them and figured returning it wouldn't be a problem, at least if it sucked. It's a bit thicker and less flexible than Samsung's but that's just

Pros
  • Computers & Accessories
Cons
  • Makes me angry

Surprisingly not for heavy daily use.

This cable failed after a year so why am I giving it 5 stars? I used this cable as my everyday phone charger cable, which should tell you it took a lot of twists and turns to make. As an engineering student, I was curious about what's inside. After the failure I did a disassembly to find the point of failure and how well made the cable was. Overall, this cable is ridiculously well designed. The breaking point was the negative power cable and this was due to excessive bending. Thick tinnedโ€ฆ

Pros
  • USB Cable
Cons
  • Vulgarity
