Inside, you’ll find a 23AWG wire core that’s encased in a premium aluminum housing and is 56k Ohm resistor-contained to ensure your charging or data-transferring experience is safe and effective. The cable also features gold-plated conducts to improve conductivity and you can use the cable with both USB-C and USB 2.0 connections. The cable is compatible with any USB-C device and with help from a 24-month warranty, you can get a new cable anytime in the first two years you have it if something goes awry. BrexLink ships its cables in a two-pack, bringing its already-affordable price down to an even more wallet-friendly level. Anker has a great track record when it comes to producing iPhone accessories — and its USB-C to lightning cable is no exception. Anker says it’ll last 12 times longer than other cables, and can withstand up to 12,000 bends. That’s a big deal for anyone who has used Apple’s cables, which can often fray or break easily. Durability is one of the most important features to consider when looking for cables, and you can typically count on Anker to provide it. An added bonus: you’ll get a lifetime warranty. Additionally, when transferring data between your phone and laptop (and vice versa) you’ll get a speedy 480 Mbps. That gives syncing and charging your iOS device an extra boost. You can also choose from two colors: black or white. The only downside is that it is only available in a three-foot length. The cable, which is universal and works with any USB-C you throw at it, has a 56k Ohm resistor that prevents its damage and keeps your devices safe and sound. It has gold-plated contacts to ensure solid conductivity and a molded strain relief under the heads ensure they won’t come off even after continued plugging and unplugging. On the data transfer side, you’ll be able to take advantage of its 480Mbps transfer speeds and at 3.3 feet, the cable should allow for connections to a variety of devices without you needing to move too many things around. The cable jacket is made of TPE, which Cable Matters says, will offer tangle-free functionality. All of that for an affordable price makes the Cable Matters Ultra Slim Series one of the best buys on the market. Be aware, however, that a single cable comes in each pack. The cable jacket is capable of withstanding more than 5,000 bends before there are any signs of problems and the USB heads have been reinforced, so you can insert and remove them more than 10,000 times before you’ll have any trouble. AUKEY tested its cable’s data transfer speeds with a 30GB file. Over USB-C, the company’s cable was able to transfer the entire file in just 5.5 minutes. Over USB 2.0, the file transferred in a still-respectable 18 minutes. The cable comes with a high-quality nylon jacket that can withstand more than 10,000 bends without ever fraying or causing problems. Additionally, the cable comes with aluminum alloy heads that make them hard to break. Add that to their oxidation-resistance and it’s clear the OULUOQI cables will withstand a punishment. The cable comes in a three-pack with each featuring a six-foot cord. According to the company, the cable can allow for 480Mbps transfer speeds and support quick charging. They’re also universal, so you can use them with the device of your choosing.
