These are an improvement!



I'd rather pay more money for something that works that I never have to deal with ever again. That's exactly why I buy StarTech cables and enclosures and have been for the last 15 years! I needed a USB-C 3.1 gen 2 cable for using my phone as a mobile hotspot to my laptop (a million times better than using Wi-Fi mobile hotspot, and my previous USB-C cable was 2.0 -- Good enough for charging my phone, but inadequate for high data bandwidth of the phone-laptop usb tether) StarTech is my preferred cable manufacturer thanks for the great work guys!

Connects USB-A to USB-C, great for connecting a new Nexus 5x to a computer for file transfers. Also good for charging (albeit, slowly) from a legacy wall-wart to USB charger.

Excellent cable, I have not been disappointed.




It simply works well.



- Sturdy material - Fast data transfer speed - Good color - Included connector caps and velcro straps

Got this for use with the energizer battery pack and MP3 player battery pack perfect fit in pocket with my cigarettes and keeps MP3 player running for over 24 hours on 4 hour charge happy as can be with cable it is very flexible so loops nicely from pocket to Player
