Review on Anker USB C Cable: Powerline USB 3.0 to USB C Charger Cable (10ft) for Samsung Galaxy, Sony XZ, LG V20 G5 G6, HTC 10, and More by Katie Chisholm

This isn't the best cable for the Oculus Quest.

This is not the best cable for Oculus Quest. Sometimes you may experience glitches when the framerate/bitrate actually increases during gameplay. It works great 99% of the time, but black screen failures and frame drops only ruin the full immersion you've come to expect from VR. This cable also had a disconnection problem. I wouldn't say I run like crazy, but every once in a while I make a move that knocks that cable over. It's just not comfortable enough to stay there 100% of the time. Worst of all, SteamVR crashes when not plugged in. Also remember that this is a USB Gen 3.0 cable. Data transfer over this cable is severely limited compared to USB 3.1 Gen 2 cables which have twice the maximum transfer rate. The best cable I found on Amazon is the WiRoTech USB C 3.1 Gen2 cable. He's been fine with me for 2 weeks. I hope this helps anyone who wants to have a flawless virtual reality experience.
