Review on πŸ”Œ Certified Cable Matters 10 Gbps Gen 2 USB C to USB C Cable - 8K Video & 100W Power Delivery (Black, 3.3 Feet, 1m) by Joshua Garris

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Excellent for external SSDs with USB 3.1 performance

Works as intended. I bought an enclosure for my SSD (850 evo) that uses a USB-C 3 connection (one end like this, the other end USB 3. Both are classified as USB-C in terms of performance and, like me, have have researched, the same speeds through this or another cable). However, I wanted both ends to be like this as my laptop has limited USB ports. The case model I'm using is Orico 2.5" USB-C (also bought here) and I had to buy this cable separately but they said it would work. I'm happy with its performance, length and quality. I Didn't test it but the apps I've used via desktop now load noticeably faster on my laptop Accompany purchases with thank you emails etc so I'm glad I paid more for it than, say, a competitor that owns an entire website that we all know *cough-cough* reviews speak for themselves.

Pros
  • 10G data and 8K video with this high-performance USB-C to USB-C cable; USB 3.1 The USBC to USBC cable offers twice the transfer speed of USB 3.0 when connecting a USB-C 3.1 portable external hard drive enclosure; The USB CC cable fully supports 8K video resolution at 60Hz; Power and video from your computer to a USBC monitor such as the MB169C Type-C/ZenScreen MB16AC Portable Monitor and the AOC i1601fwux Portable Monitor with USB-C Power Delivery
Cons
  • Available in black only
