Anker Cable, Powerline 3.0 USB A to USB C Charger Cord with 56k Ohm Pull-up Resistor for Samsung Galaxy Note S8/S9 and More(3FT,Black)

I discovered Anker chargers and cables about a year ago on Amazon. I bought a couple of their IQ multi-port chargers for the car and the house. I’ve been really impressed with the quality for the price factor since day one of owning many other Anker products. Here’s my review of “[3 Pack] Anker PowerLine USB-C to USB 3.0 Cable (3ft) with 56k Ohm Pull-up Resistor for USB Type-C Devices Including the new MacBook, ChromeBook Pixel, Nexus, OnePlus 2 and More”: Here’s what I like: This 3 pack of USB cables like all of their products is packaged in Anker’s simple frustration free packaging which mean you do not have to worry about using an industrial pair of scissors to open the package, plus the packaging waste is easy to recycle. The cables are really well built and from my experience the Anker cables last a long time, I personally have not had one go bad yet and a few have been in use for over a year. I absolutely love that Anker supplies their cables with a Velcro strap. I usually add one to my cables because I like to keep things tidy, so this eliminates me from buying extras. Very nice touch! Both ends of the cable have plenty of room for your fingers to grasp which makes it easier to insert and remove the cables from the ports, which should also make the cable hold up longer. I also bench tested this cable using a Drok USB monitor which was being supplied power from an Anker IQ USB charging hub. I used the Anker cables to charge my only USC-C device which is a Moto Z Force Droid. The cable delivered the exact same output as 2 other name brand cables which is 5.1 Volts at 1.47 Amps. I find this to be normal delivery with this charger which is one of my best performers when paired with a quality cable. I use this meter so I can toss out under performing cables and chargers, and I've found plenty of cables to toss out since using it (mostly Apple Lighting cables). To sum this up, these cables are really nice and from past experiences Anker cables hold up. I paid $20 at the store for the same type of cable from another manufacturer and you get 3 cables for $22 in this pack. If you have a USB-C device and you want a few cables for the home and car, then this is a great value. I believe the same Anker cable is $11 if yo buy it individually, so this is a great value if you want 3 cables. Update (2/21/2017): I've been using the cables now for several months and the cables are still performing as new.

Absolutely The Best Cable Around. First of all My 3 year old phone wasn't charging correctly. It was plugged in with a basic USB-C cable but wasn't even charging ( it was losing power even while charging!). So, when I put this Anker Cable into the Anker Charger and attached it to the phone....Boom! It was charging up with a fury!. This phone port was most likely filled with lint too. While the other no name brand cable had been twisted and held tightly with painters tape (you know just to get it to not slip out of the phone's charging port.) No matter, for the moment I inserted the Anker Cable this instantly "Boom!' a perfect match had been found and it has a tight fit too. It didn't even slip out on a 3 year old phone with most likely a port filled with lint. I want to also add that the cable is well cared for it's not exposed to outside rough conditions yet, I think it could easily go out on daily usage in outside environments without anything fishy happening tobit. It still it works like nothing else out there. It stays put even with a few random moves on my part and it charges like the phone was brand new! Anker Cable Powerline 4.0 USB A to USB C Charging cable is the best I've Ever had. Anker is the bottom line only company to use when it comes to modern consumer electronics, especially anything even remotely concerning Mobile Phones and charging. That includes Power Banks, cable's and other things related to Cell Phones. Thank you Anker for being such an exemplary company. I recommend this charging cable and salute Anker as the epitome of the manufacturer & Go To company in today's modern Mobile Phone Accessories Marketplace. Final Score: 5 outta 5 Stars !

I have been using Anker cables for over 5 years, great cables, incredible quality, really fair price! To insure I got exactly what I needed, I sent an email off to Anker Customer Service. A very polite and helpful Celine answered my email in less than 12 hours. I sent it late at night, and 8AM the next morning I had a response! UNBELIEVABLE customer service! The email had links that I clicked and then simply added items to my cart, easy as easy goes! Since my email had specific requirements (I.E. - length, connection end types, charging needs) I didn't even look at the cables, just paid for them and waited for delivery. This review is for the 10ft, USB-A to USB-C Powerline + black cable for my Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ (To be installed in my car to connect phone to cars smart center main display). The other cable was exactly what I needed and had asked for and above and beyond, great job Anker! This cable arrived in the traditional Anker box/packaging, which is very nice and better then most retail cable packaging. This cable is a beast! I have had HDMI cables thinner than this! But at the same time, it was pliable enough to be routed through my center console to where phone plugs in. It is thick and heavy feeling, which is what you want in a high quality cable. The ends are perfect, tight and fit nice and secure into USB plug and phone! The plug heads are very securely attached/sealed to the cable. And I have never had an issue with Anker cables. I have some over 5 years old that still look and work like new! I did not get to hook it up to a high speed wall charger, but my phone is 3 to 4 times faster connecting to my car, and the response times from when I voice command thru stereo and the phone responds is also much faster. The cars built in USB-A plug is not 3.0/3.1, so no fast charge, but I run GPS, phone calls and voice to text messaging while driving and phone has no problem charging on top of all that! This is just another incredible, better than expected, high quality, fantastic value product from a company I trust. And that trust was earned for over 5 yeats and still counting! I would highly recommend Anker cables to anybody who wants high quality, reasonably and fairly priced cables that you buy once and never worry about again! I did not receive any products or discounts for this review.

Anker has several different cables: Powerline Economy Cable, charges well, low price, rubber coated cable, cheap connectors. Powerline II Entry-Level Cable, charges well, low price, rubber coated cable, upgraded connectors. Powerline+ Mid-level Cable, charges well, average price, more durable cable with nylon over the rubber coat, more durable connectors. Powerline+ II High-End Cable, charges fast, high price, Extremely Durable, Best Connectors at both ends of the cables. I only use Anker Cables. The Powerline cables I have all over my house, the cheaper cables are great for areas you'll just put your device down and let it charge. I use the Powerline+ in areas where we actually like to play on the phone while it charges. The neck on the powerline+ is more durable so if you're moving the phone a lot it should handle a lot of bending at the neck of the cable (I have had some of these cable fray at the neck so they are not impervious to bend/break like Apple cables) Finally the powerline+ II I only have a couple of the cables, I use them with my powerbanks beccause not only do they seem to charge faster, but they are more durable and when I'm charging with my powerbank I'm constantly moving, bending, pulling on the cable, have not had a problem with the Powerline+ II, just can't afford to upgrade all the cables in my house with this expensive line. Love Anker Products. Anker stands by their products and replaces anything for free as long as it's under warranty (usualy 12-18 months depending on the product). There is 1 thing I hate about Anker customer support, they are completely impersonal. You'll read this grievance in my most of my recent reviews, I'll explain and let you decide for yourself if Anker Support could have, should have, treated me better. Just bought multiple items as Christmas gifts for 16 family members (16 power banks, 16 lightning cables, 8 micro USB cables, 8 Wall Chargers, 5 Car Chargers) Not only did I spend a lot of money but I gave Anker 16 new customers that are already purchasing more Anker products. So when my personal 6ft Powerline+ lightning cable broke after a few months of minimal use (exposing the wire) I sent in my request for a new cable. I explained how much I love Anker, how I just got my entire family Anker products and got Anker a bunch of new customers and I was surprised the cable broke so easily. I asked if they could replace my cable with the 6ft Powerline+ II, figuring it may be more durable. Their reply was surprising, they wanted to refund me for my cable so I could purchased the newer cable. They did not offer a discount for the new cable, so essential they were not willing to give me the newer cable for free, it would have cost me a few more dollars and honestly I can't imagine it really costing Anker more than a few cents for the upgraded cable. This is such a huge turn off, I'm the customer you want, not just a guy who buys a cable, but someone who buys many, many products from you, gives your products to all of my family members, and promotes your products to everyone... So many of my friends have also gotten Anker cables based on my recommendation. Highly disappointed in your customer service skills Anker, still love your products but I don't plan on promoting your products until you learn how to treat your GREAT CUSTOMERS BETTER.

Short: Great brand, used them for years, can vouch as an engineer to buy theses. No cons great durabilty, not bulky, great material. Easy to maneuver as well no resistance. Long Review: I've been using Anker USB-C cords for years, as an engineer and just a person who needs an absurd amount of wires and they’ve consistently been my go-to choice for reliable performance. This cord charges my devices incredibly quickly, making it perfect for my laptop, gaming systems, and controllers. The length of the cord is excellent, providing the flexibility I need without any hassle. It strikes a perfect balance—neither too thick nor too thin—ensuring durability without being cumbersome. Even the cords with less girth have proven to be incredibly resilient. Anker's materials are top-notch, and none of their cords have failed or deteriorated over time. Whether you’re charging or connecting various devices, Anker’s USB-C cords deliver excellent quality and consistency every time. It looks great too blends in the environment no annoying eye sore in corner.

The cable appears to be of high quality--better than the average cable, and marked with the brand name. That is important because they are proud enough of their quality (witness the many positive reviews) that they feel that their brand name is of value in selling the product. I like the medium length. And, as others have noted, the cable does appear to enable faster charging. I am happy enough with the obvious quality of this cable that I bought another for my wife's phone.

This is a review for multiple items used as a cheap alternative to the official quest link cable. I started off by using Airlink and virtual desktop when I got my quest 2 to play PC VR games. Both software had their pros and cons but I did not like the noticeable lag I got with both even though I have a very good wifi connection. I have seen many reviews complaining that this setup does not work. I'm not sure if they are having a hard time connecting it but I did have trouble at first and this is what I did to fix it. If you have Airlink enabled you have to disable it if you want to connect via link. Next not all USB 3.0 slots will work you have to try every single USB 3.0 port on your motherboard and PC to see which slot works. I have no idea why this is the case for some people but try every USB port before giving up. item 1: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B077XBDKBH?ref=ppx_yo2_dt_b_product_details&th=1 not much to talk about since it's just a right Angle USB C Male to Female Adapter but build quality seems good and you are given 3 so if one were to break or stop working you have multiple. Item 2: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01MZIPYPY?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2_dt_b_product_details thick durable cable. will have stable connection to the quest 2 for link can also be used to charge any devices with USB c. Item 3: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0179MXKU8?ref=ppx_yo2_dt_b_product_details&th=1 very long extension cable but it does have a coil. this could be easily removed if you stretch it out a bit but if you don't mind the coil then I guess its fine. charge is not fast enough to charge headset while in play. i started playing with my charge at 98% and I played 1 chapter of Half Life Alyx (30-40 minutes), 1 hour of Into The Radius, and 30 minutes of The walking Dead saints and sinners. all these are the most intense games I own. after I was done playing I was at 84% charge. I'm sure there's something on the users end that can be done to prevent the headset from dying while in use and if I can find out how I will update this review. other than that I highly recommend this if you are looking for a cheaper alternative to the quest 2 link cable.
