These Genius £11 USB-C Cables Saved me From Tangle Hell
As a technology journalist and self-proclaimed nerd, I am always on the go with a plethora of gadgets that require charging. The struggle of untangling a mess of cables was a daily inconvenience until I stumbled upon these life-changing retractable 100W USB-C cables on Amazon. Priced at just £10.99, these cables have truly revolutionized the way I charge my devices.
For such a budget-friendly price, you receive two cables, each measuring 100m in length. This ample length ensures that you can comfortably charge a wide range of devices without any hassle. Despite my initial doubts about their durability, I have been using these cables religiously for over a year now, and they have not disappointed. They still retract smoothly and efficiently, providing a reliable charge of over 90W to my MacBook Pro every time.
The design of these cables is both practical and convenient. They are flat and come neatly wound on a small plastic spool, approximately 4cm in diameter. To extend the cable, simply pull evenly from each side to reach the full 120cm length or lock it at one of the preset shorter lengths. When you are done, a gentle tug on both ends will retract the cable back into the spool for easy storage.
This retractable feature ensures that you only have as much cable as you need, eliminating the clutter of excess cord dangling from your workspace. The compact spool also prevents the common issue of tangled cables, making packing up a breeze.
In addition to their user-friendly design, these cables boast impressive specifications. Equipped with a 100W E-Mark chip, they support PD 3.0, QuickCharge 3.0, and up to 20V/5A charging. They also facilitate data transfer, allowing seamless file transfers between your various devices.
What truly sets these cables apart is their affordability. Priced at around £11 on Amazon for a set of two 100W retractable 1.2m USB-C cables, they are a steal. I personally own four of these cables and am considering adding more to my collection. Whether I am at home or on the go, these cables have undoubtedly become my go-to choice for charging all my devices.
