5/5

Works as advertised...great length

I needed a longer charging cable for my phone as 3 metres wasn't enough for various purposes, and this was great. 5 metres in length is very good and met my needs, allowing a long stretch from the charging port to my bed, and I can walk around with it without worrying the length will tug me back.The cable quality is good and being a braided cable, I was pleased because they tend to be more durable.Supports faster charging, which is great if you're in a rush to charge your phone quickly, however, it is only a USB 3.0 charging cable, therefore not the fastest.On price, £16.99 for a charging cable is quite expensive, and although 5 metres long, it is unfortunately only a USB 3.0 cable, so even though it has a braided cable, which I like, this isn't the best option in my opinion.

The media could not be loaded.  The video goes into much more detail, including full, comprehensive testing with some surprising results.However, in a nutshell:Things I liked:+ The cable itself is indeed 5m long and feels well made. It's braided and fairly flexible - great for connecting to a VR headset.+ The data transfer performance was absolutely fine. It is working at the advertised 5Gbps speeds, very suitable for VR.Things I didn't like:- Charging performance was absolutely all over the place. Some devices charged at 7.7V (?), others charged at 5V 0.5A. Charging performance was pretty poor, to be honest. See the video for the full testing.Do I recommend it?For data transfer, it's fine. For charging, it's not. For VR, it'll do the job fine but it won't deliver much charge to your headset as far as I can tell. If the price is right and you're not bothered about charging performance, go for it.

The quality of this cable is great with top manufacturing that makes the cable thick and strong and the plug ports solid and sturdy.This type C cable is suitable for most devices using type C charging and it supports fast charging but I'm not sure what wattage this cable can support as this isn't stated.Suitable for a variety of VR headsets but can also be used for charging a mobile phone. I have got this one for the mother in law who's just had a major operation and needed a longer cable to keep her phone charged up without her having to move unnecessarily and as the plug is a way away from her bed this cable overcomes the difficulty she had in charging her phone whilst remaining in bed to recover from her op.This is the 5m version but the seller also has 3m and 6m available too.The price is good too for this quality and length of cable being £15.99 at time of review which is very reasonable in my opinion.If you're after a long type C cable then this is a very good choice and is well made.

This is connecting correctly with my Quest 2 on a USB 3.0 port, benchmarking (according to the Oculus app) at around 1 Gbps, which is perfectly adequate. The build quality seems fine, it comes in basic packaging (a plastic envelope) and I'm very happy with it so far. I can't speak about durability yet, but I the USB-C right-angle connector is nice and compact and connects firmly into the Quest 2 with a satisfying click.

I am using this to connect a KVM to a server rack. It's the maximum length that USB is allowed to be according to the standard. The cable is well made, with strain reliefs and solid casing and plugs, and with a strong plaited fibre outer casing. I'm pleased with it and for its length it's fine at the price today (£16.00)

This is perfect as more and more things change over to usb C this is great for not only Vr headsets but gives the ability to set up devices further away from the computer. This gives 5 metres of freedom to plan out a room better and the cable is pretty hardy with its twisted fibre protection. Overall good quality and production of this cable
