Pros: Good design.
Cons: Of the 3 cables of this model that I have purchased, 2 have failed. I loved the design, and attributed the first failure to bad luck. After the 2nd failure, and have to believe these are just poor quality. There must be another manufacturer who can do a reliable job. :-(
Pros: I love the right-angle micro-usb connector on this cable. It tucks closer to the phone then the C2G right-angle micro-usb plugs. Also, the micro-usb connector makes a good snug and secure connection to the phone compared to most other cables I've used.
Cons: The skinny wire is just not capable of charging devices at full speed. The Galaxy Charge Rate app says 980ma on my S4 when using this cable with the OEM wall charger that came with the phone. Simply switching to the OEM cable or a 6' C2G brand cable and my S4 gets the full 1900ma charge rate. The real issue is voltage drop due to the resistance of the cable itself. Many micro-USB cables have the same problem, and likely all of them longer then 6'. The 30awg or 28awg conductors in these cables are woefully inadequate.
Overall Review: I'm going to make good use of this cable because it's got the best micro-usb connector I've seen, but when I need to charge quickly I'll be using a C2G brand cable I bought that delivers the full charge rate.
Pros: IF you use this angle-end cable for your cell phone charging, you never have to squint at a straight-ended teensy microUSB to figure out which way to insert it into the jack. 100% correct each time instead of 50/50 chance. Other that that, it's just a cable... and slightly more flexible than most stock phone charging cables.
Cons: Zero cons!
Overall Review: I can even insert it properly in the dark, try that with your straight cable.
Pros: Does the USB
Cons: Doesn't not do the USB
Overall Review: Yes, it's a six inch cable. Stop complaining about the length.
Pros: Looks good. That's about all.
Cons: This cable appeared to work when I first tried it, but when I tried to use it with the car charger to charge by cell phone that I purchased it for, it did not charge. I tried it at home later and the phone was not recognized by the computer but when I used the cord that came with the computer, the phone was just fine.
Overall Review: Not worth the postage to return it. After 1st class postage in an envelope, I might get back two bucks. Not Worth the bother.
Pros: Price
Cons: We have 4 micro USB devices in my home. This would not charge a single one. On one device I could hold the wire in a specific way and it would charge...
Pros: Works perfectly for data transfer and charging. Nice and long. The 90-degree angle is a HUGE plus--not only do you always know which way to plug it in, it's less of a protrusion and MUCH less awkward or prone to getting banged and bent. It seems flimsy but it's held up after nearly two years.
Cons: The only con is that it doesn't work well for playing music--i hooked it up to the car's USB and the sound quality was lousy--there was a noticeable difference when I switched to the (much) more expensive Rocketfish.
Overall Review: A good all-around cord for charging and data transfer.

Pros: It is much thinner, more flexible, and 3 times longer than the cable that came with my Droid. I have a snap-on hard case for my Droid and I have some micro cables that will not fit because of the case. With this cable, I can use the phone while charging in the car or at home with out it being right next to the usb port. The right angle, lighter cable, and length lets me use the phone without putting unnecessary stress on the charging port too.
Cons: Cost money. Popular - out of stock right now. (I really want a few more)
Overall Review: I've used this with my Droid (overclocked to 1.2ghz), Jawbone Icon/Era, and Garmin 255 with no problems. On the Droid and the Jawbones, it charges fine and takes about the same amount of time to charge as the factory cable. I only used it as a data cable with the Garmin. I've charged the phone and headsets off of a lighter socket usb, wall outlet usb, netbook, and desktop (both using Win7 and Ubuntu 10.10).
