Cable Matters [USB-IF Certified] 10Gbps Gen 2 USBA to USB C Cable - 3.3 ft, USBC to USBA Cable, Black, Compatible with iPhone 16/15 Pro Max/Plus

I bought this cable for my CarPlay and I have seen a big change in quality. No more lagging, no more random disconnects and it feels sturdy as a brick! Love this thing. Worth every penny.

I've now purchased a total of four of these Cable Matters USB-C to A cables for both work and myself. I can't believe how many low quality cables are out there, many of which are incompatible for things like external hard drives. This cable is excellent and works with everything. Sure you can use it as just a charging cable, but it's also a wonderful data cable and works great with my WD DUO drive and several microcontrollers. I use it at work as a PC to monitor connector. The cable is a little stiffer and thicker than most and the connectors are durable. If you are looking for a reliable and cost effective cable then this is a great choice.

Using it to attach a USB-C 5GbE dongle to my laptop or desktop, this unlocked the full available speed of my external network adapter.

Cable works amazing. I'm able to transfer files to my Sandisk USB NVME at around 350MB/s.

I bought this after growing tired of slow USB charging and data transfer issues. Initially this cable also would not stay connected to my PC but after further research I discovered that I had crud in my charging port. I used a tooth brush to scrub at it and huge chunks of debris came out. After doing this the Cable Matters cable has worked flawlessly. The cable is very thick and high quality. No issues, other than my phone's dirty port.

After only a few twists and turns manipulating the cable, it died. We ended up returning it and getting a braided cable from CableMatters which may be your better bet if you plan on the cable being manipulated at all. This cable is fairly stiff and prone to breaking.

After the last phone up date (Apple v18) my CarPlay no longer worked in my car. My phone would only charge. Went online tried suggestions but most didn’t work. However someone did suggest an updated cable with higher data throughput (if I’m using that term correct). So I bought this updated usba to usbc cable from Cable Matters and it fixed the issues and has been working since. I’ve bought from this company before and their prices are good and products have been great. Recommend company and product.

I used a tester as soon as I received it. This proved to be as advertised.
