Elixage Essential 4' USB Type C-to-USB Type C Charge-and-Sync Cable 39-0858-05-XP

Comment:

This may be the best constructed cable I have ever purchased. I, like most people I would guess, have been buying cables based on price and online reviews…often times buying 3, 4 and 5 packs at less than the single price of a cable at my local CE store. Most of the time these cables broke in less than a month. In fact, I just purchased a 5 pack of a top rated cable and all five broke or stopped working within a week. Admittedly, I have arthritis and often pull on the cable part to detach cable from computer or phone which probably creates excess strain between the cable and connector parts. I decided to buy a more expensive cable from a domestic company that claimed durability and I couldn’t be happier. They claim 40k bend testing and I believe it. The strain relief is thicker and about an inch longer than other cables and molds around the cable head (rather than two pieces). The braid is visibly thicker and more resistant to bending (that would damage the wires) than any other braided cable I have purchased. The strain relief is easy to grip to insert/remove the cable. The cable also appears to meet the performance specifications advertised. I really like the built in cables organizer. It is actually made of leather and is totally handy for wrapping up the cable when not being used. One more thing – this cable is actually 4 feet as advertised…I’m talking the actual cable length rather than tip of the connector to tip of the connector. This cable is more expensive than most of the USB C cables on Amazon…but I am guessing I will save a ton of money over the long run by not having to purchase a new cable every week or month.
