Customer reviews
Customer Reviews, including Product Star Ratings help customers to learn more about the product and decide whether it is the right product for them.
To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Instead, our system considers things like how recent a review is and if the reviewer bought the item on Amazon. It also analyzed reviews to verify trustworthiness.
Learn more how customers reviews work on AmazonCustomers say
Customers like the quality, value, and performance of the electronic cable. For example, they mention it's well made, sturdy, and keeps a solid connection. That said, opinions are mixed on charging and thickness.
AI-generated from the text of customer reviews
Customers are satisfied with the quality of the cable. They mention that the build quality is sturdy, and it's helpfully labelled with "SS 10" on one end. The cable is much sturdier than usual, and keeps a solid connection with their device.
"...It's nice to have it aways and safely plugged in and feels durable and thick so I imagine it's going to last. Update 10/30/21...." Read more
"This cable has a very sturdy cord and seems to be well-insulated...." Read more
"The Amazon basic USB C to USB A cables are sturdy. The cables are somewhat thick and not easily bent or coiled to save space." Read more

Customers like the performance of the cable. For example, they say it works perfectly, the switch works pretty well, and has no issues.
"...so looked hard, and read every detail and found this and it works great for my ps4 pro and the t5. No issues read right up and started playing...." Read more
"...Working very well, transfer speeds are extremely fast." Read more
"...reasonable price for a USB 3 Gen2 10gbps cable, but it works very well with my testing (990MB/s read, 980MB/s write)...." Read more
"...No issues! It is however a very beefy cable and does not move around as freely because of that." Read more
Customers like the value of the electronic cable. They say it's good value for a super speed cable and worth the purchase.

Some customers also mention that the pad charging is iffy and takes a few adjustments. Overall, the charging speed of the cable is a mixed bag, with some customers being satisfied and others being disappointed.

Customers are mixed about the thickness of the electronic cable. Some mention that it's thicker than the original Samsung cable and has a nice thick quality, while others say that the cables are somewhat thick and not easily bent or coiled to save space. The cable is a little heavier than they thought it would be compared to apples, but it feels very sturdy. The cord seems far bulkier than necessary.

This cable works very well for USB 3 Gen2 10gbps data transfers
Summary:
This cable surprised me as most USB 3 Gen2 cables perform poorly, especially the Type A to Type C cables. A very reasonable price for a USB 3 Gen2 10gbps cable, but it works very well with my testing (990MB/s read, 980MB/s write). It doesn't look as pretty as the competitor cables and it likes to retain the kinks from the coiling for shipping, but other than that it worked. I expect that leaving it stretched out for a few days will relieve the kinks. Packaged in a no-nonsense biodegradable package with a twist-tie - no other materials. I did not test charging with the cable, only data transfers.
=== My current test system
-Asus Strix Z490-E system, with 3 Type A Gen2 10gbps and 1 Type C Gen2x2 20gbps ports
-Samsung 970 Evo Plus and Samsung 950 Pro (and a few other cheaper drives)
-Several Common USBC adapters/enclosures (I can provide exact models if you need the info)
-Massive active cooling on the bare boards and drives (no thermal tape in the way, pure high speed air via 2 push-pull 80mm fans positioned around the adapter board and SSD so as to maintain a steady thermal state
-Benchmark Software: AS-SSD and CrystalDiskMark for testing - focus in on the sequential block throughput
-Wiring: I am not using an external USB hub, just the cable to the adapter/bridge and SSD
=== My opinion on USB 3 Gen2 10gbps cables
USB 2 Gen2 cables are a hit-or-miss technology at this time (TB3 seems to be more consistent, and of course more expensive). I feel that certified cables with the active chips seem to perform better. Shorter cables seem to perform better. The longer the cable (especially over 3ft) the more inconsistency (I have one 6ft Gen 2 cable that works in my system, and have sent back a few others). You can have perfect hardware (several varieties) and an expensive USB Gen2 cable may not perform, while a cheaper 1ft-3ft cable performs just fine. Only an expert in this specific field (USB 3 Gen 2) could shed light on these inconsistency issues. Proper cable shielding is required to obtain 10gbps, and that is stiff and heavy. There is probably no way to hit 10gbps with a very flexible cable. Stiff cables transfer movements to the connector and thus a perfect connector design (both sides) is necessary, else a slight movement will jiggle the cable - no getting around this - so many vendors involved in the average system.
=== About Me
I am a 30-year+ software developer that has worked with a lot of high-end high-performance hardware. I don't take testing lightly, but I can't develop a laboratory for testing these cables (not my area).
Please take my review for what it is worth based on the info above. I can only speak to what I have seen with my hardware, as listed above.
