    The Best Buy Essentials 6' USB-C to USB-C Braided Charge-and-Sync Cable is a great value option for those looking for a durable and reliable charging cable. Here’s a breakdown of its key features: Build Quality The braided design not only adds a premium look but also enhances durability. It resists tangling and feels sturdy enough to withstand everyday use. The connectors are solidly built and fit snugly into USB-C ports, ensuring a secure connection. Performance This cable supports fast charging and data transfer, making it versatile for both powering devices and syncing files. In my experience, it worked seamlessly with smartphones, tablets, and even laptops. However, the charging speed will depend on the device and adapter you’re using. Length At 6 feet, the cable provides plenty of reach, making it convenient for use in various settings, such as at a desk or in bed. It’s long enough to avoid the frustration of being tethered too close to an outlet. Value for Money Considering its price point, this cable delivers excellent performance and durability. While it may not have the advanced features of higher-end cables, it’s a reliable option for everyday use. Pros Durable braided design Supports fast charging and data transfer Affordable price Generous 6-foot length Cons Charging speeds may vary depending on the adapter Lacks advanced certifications like USB Power Delivery or Thunderbolt

    Quality Cable at a Fantastic Price

    Best Buy Essential products have been steadily increasing in both value and quality for a few years, and I'm happy to say that this trend continues here. It might seem odd to review a USB-C cable, but I believe that USB cables are some of the most confusing and misunderstood tech products on the market. The average consumer likely has limited knowledge on the actual technical specification of a USB cable, and especially for USB-C cables. This is the fault of the USB-IF (USB Implementers Forum; which is the non-profit corporation comprised of representatives from the companies that develop the USB spec.). One of the many issues with how the spec is defined, is that there is no actual requirement for manufacturers to label or otherwise make clear what the actual functionality of the cable is. The Features section states that this cable is USB-IF certified, though I was unable to confirm whether or not that is true. The Certified Product list that the USB-IF maintains seems to mostly cover High-Speed cables or more advanced implementations of the USB-C spec, so I won't necessarily give negative marks for not being able to find this cable on the list. If someone from the Best Buy Essentials team is reading this, I would love the TID for the cable, just out of curiosity. Despite not being to verify the authenticity of the cable certification, this appears to be a solid cable. It's exactly what you expect from Best Buy Essentials, in that it provides the functionality that you expect, at a reasonable price. The quality of the braid is nice and does not hang or snag on other surfaces or fabrics. The connector sits snug in the port, which is nice to see as you can often find cheap cables with flimsy connectors that do not seat properly. The plastic support that connects the physical connector to the cable is sufficient, though I wouldn't be making the cable do any advanced yoga stretches or bends. Overall, I'm quite pleased with the cable, keep up the good work Essentials team!

    I'm so glad I bought this, and I got 2. The 6ft one is really long, so I'm able to have my phone close by while charging. Unlike the wires I had before, the plastic around the wire is more durable. I would definitely get another one in 4 ft just to have a shorter wire to take with me on the go.

    I was hesitant on purchasing this cord for my Beats earbuds because it wasn’t an Apple cord. BB was out of the Apple cord. However, the sales person recommended this cord saying it does the same thing as the Apple cord. It was less expensive than the Apple cord. I took a chance & have been very happy with the cord!
