Review on πŸ”Œ White USB Type-C to USB Type-C 2.0 Charging Cable - 3 Feet (0.9 Meters) by Amazon Basics by Michael Patilla

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Cable out of spec, avoid

I checked the Bensen review before ordering but I assume the product has been changed afterwards. I've tested both the 6" and 9" versions and neither work properly with a variety of devices. For example, the Nexus 5X reports that it charges slowly for a few seconds and then stops charging completely shortly after. Other cables report fast charging, which matches the 5V/3A profile at the end of the USB-C specification. It's the same behavior with different chargers/power adapters. I don't have such a good view with other devices, but I had problems charging the power bank. It all works great with other cables, such as B. the standard cable that comes with the Nexus 5X.

Pros
  • Absolute legend
Cons
  • Communication with seller
