Great cables! in Computers & Accessories

I bought these because I wanted extra USB-C chargers and wanted to connect my phone to my computer. Anker makes some pretty good products. These cables are good and thick. They definitely feel a lot more durable than the cables that come with your phone. It was a two pack so they were well wrapped with velcro that says anchor. Velcro closure comes in handy when I put the cords in my backpack. The USB-C side sits firmly and securely on my phone (note 8). I used them to charge my phone and my…

High Performance USB 3.0 to USB-C Cable

These high-quality cables offer efficient and fast charging and fast data transfer. The description mentions a data transfer rate of 5 Gbps and USB 3.0. I recently read that the new name for this speed is USB 3.1 Gen 1. In any case, only USB 3.1 Gen 2 is faster at 10 Gbps. The only thing I don't really like is that the cable is quite thick and a bit stiff, but I'm sure this also directly accounts for the high performance mentioned above. You also get Anker's outstanding customer service. Keep…

  • Easy to use

Good charging cable.

I bought these to use with my USB-C fast chargers. Don't really use them for data transfer, so I can't rate them in that department. You are quite significant. I will say one of them didn't work for me but Anker replaced it and just asked me to do some troubleshooting steps and send them a picture. A return was not necessary. I've had good luck with Anker in the past, their products seem to be well made, they back them up and replace them when they fail without undue burden on the customer…

"BEND LIFE " FALSE

The advertised "5000+x lifespan" is complete and utter nonsense. Both cables in my 2-pack are separated by a connector, exposing the cores and rendering them unusable. This happened with minimal use of the table, only "flexing" the cord a few times. Their durability is just terrible.

Pros
  • I'm holding my fists
Cons
  • Out of fashion

Not the anchor I liked.

Failed in 1 week. Didn't keep in touch and slipped out of the port. Anker told me to show the serial number. Couldn't find it anywhere. Did I miss something? Too much hassle with warranty service. Anker used to be a great company. It's obvious that they got lost somewhere in their development. Too bad. I have bought so many of their products from speakers to chargers and batteries. I will not buy from them again. Called Amazon and got a refund. too much of. I hope not.

  • Special offer

Good cables are worth it

I did a bit of research when I got my new phone (Samsung Galaxy S8 is a great phone) as this is the first time I needed USB-C cables. It looks like Anker has applied the same quality to their USB-C cables as they do to their MicroUSB cables. Here's what I really liked: 1. Good solid construction. Neither USB-A nor USB-C cable ends hang out of the connector at all. There are also no gaps between the cable and the plastic connector for dirt to collect.2. Powerful stress reliever. Very few cables…

Pros
  • Wait
Cons
  • The list is getting long.

Quality cable with a slight minus

Bought this cable (set of two 6ft cables) for two different purposes: 1. I needed a long (5ft minimum) high speed data cable to and from my Galaxy Note 8.2. I also needed a long cable (6ft was enough) to charge the same smartphone. The good news is that the cable does a great job in either case, charging the Note 8 quickly and transferring files much, much faster than OEM Samsung. USB-C cable It also feels solid. I have to say that while this is quite a thick cable, it is not rigid and bends…

Pros
  • Elegant design
Cons
  • Long delivery time

Cables don't work, won't charge

I thought these cables would work well, I have bought other Anker products in the past. but these cables don't work at all. Not sure if they transfer data because when I tried to use them to charge while driving they didn't work. one doesn't load at all, the other doesn't load at full speed. I have tested this with other cables which work great and charge at full speed for a Samsung S8 phone.

Pros
  • Delivery was very quick
Cons
  • Very expensive

GREAT CABLE! Tried different brands. I'll stay with Anchor.

I used to work in an electronics store. I've tried almost most of the popular Type-C cables. Yes, there are cheaper options. And then there are quirky basket options. But in my experience, rigid braided cables would not provide enough power. And the cheaper ones have often switched off. I knew Anker was a good brand, but the extra $2 for basic clothing didn't sell me. I finally decided to give it a try and stop fumbling with cheap cables. These anchor cables have been so good for me. A solid…

  • Cool
Cons
  • This makes me angry
