Reddit reviews AmazonBasics USB Type-C to USB Type-C 2.0 Charger Cable - 6 Feet (1.8 Meters) - White

I use this C to C cable and it's worked fine for me. I think it has to be the USB 2.0 version and no fast charging.

I haven't tried transferring files with it though because I use the one provided in the box and leave it plugged into my PC. I could try when I get home from work in the evening.

this one I have been using it for months and it is GREAT. absolutely no problems.

This is Benson Leungs Review on it he is that Google engineer who tests the usb c cables.

Imo its the best cable for the money right now hands down. No contest.

I carry this

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01GGKZ2SC for usb C. there's a 3' version too that works fine when I know I won't need the extra cable length.

Lastly there's a USB C to lightning cable if you carry an iPhone that supports fast charging.

I travel a lot and I'm OCD about efficiency on planes - I keep it pretty minimal cable wise.

I wouldn't trust anyone who doesn't get their USB-C cable certified by USB-IF.

Is there any reason you don't want the AmazonBasics cable of the same kind?

$7.56 today. Not Baseus cheap, but you can have the confidence it is done right.

Plus a USB-c wall charger like this one

And you'll be good to go. The charger you have is never going to give you rapid charging.

(of the products I listed, I can vouch for the cable because I bought the same one. Can't say on the wall charger though but that one seems like a decent one)

I just bought this wall charger and this usb C to C charging cable but I ran into an issue where it won't charge. If I use a standard usb A to C with the same charger it works, it's just super slow. Any one have this charger and a working cable or any usb C to C charger/cable combo that works? I'm looking for something to use next to my bed.

The cables and the wall charger definitely work but I haven't had the chance to test the car charger yet. It came bundled with a C-C cable.

Edit: whoops, hyperlinks didn't work on mobile I see

I have the 6ft Amazon Basics cable and it fast charges.

Best replacement for wall charger I bought. You will need the USB C cable you can get AmazonBasics works perfectly together. Total $27.50

This is what my USB-C cord looks like on each end. I see tongues on both sides, and my macbook has a female slot on it.

I was talking to the other guy about making it smaller.

So I need another USBC Cable for my OG pixel, and I was looking through the options and was planning on getting the amazon basics USBC-USBC cable (Benson Leung approved), but then I saw the updated USB 3.1 cable and wasn't sure if there was actually any benefit to it. Is this something worth shelling out double/triple the price for when I'm just using it as a charging cable?

The AmazonBasics cable supports power delivery and is nine feet for $10.

I just use these. Works great for me. Seem to be good quality.

Exclusively for the iPad Pro 2018. Note that it is USB 2.0 limited, but fine for charging and reasonable speed data transfer.

> A USB C cable costs about 12$ if you want any kind of quality.

A USB C cable sells for about $7. It probably costs less than a dollar.

None of this stuff is as expensive as you make it out to be. It's purely a matter of what Nintendo thinks they can get us to pay.

If you have an older MacBook Air/Pro: https://www.amazon.com/AmazonBasics-Type-C-USB-Male-Cable/dp/B01GGKYN0A/ref=sr_1_3_acs_sk_pb_1_sl_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1542134206&sr=8-3-acs&keywords=usb+c+cable

If you have a recent MacBook (the really thin one): https://www.amazon.com/AmazonBasics-USB-Type-C-2-0-Cable/dp/B01GGKZ2SC/ref=sr_1_3_acs_sk_pb_1_sl_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1542134206&sr=8-3-acs&keywords=usb+c+cable

However, keep in mind, these are large files and recorded in a really highly compressed format, so if your Macbook is any less than a MacBook Pro with a good graphics card and a powerful processor, you're not going to have a fun time because rendering h.264 is a resource intensive task.
