Our verdict

A pair of short USB charging cables from Anker with a USB-IF specification and a very long device list. The cable type field contradicts the connector field, so check the ends before use.

Overview

On a nightstand or at a desk, these cables link a USB-A power source to a USB-C device for charging and data transfer. A silicone outer layer covers each round cable.

Two short cables with an industry specification cover a bedside charger and a desk port. The compatibility list spans Galaxy, Pixel, iPhone, iPad and Fire tablets. Some fields conflict, such as the data rate units and the cable type.

Who it's for

Phone and tablet owners with a USB-A wall brick or computer port who need short cables. Anyone with only USB-C ports needs a USB-C to USB-C cable instead.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Two cables in the pack
  • USB-IF specification met
  • Silicone outer material
  • Broad phone and tablet compatibility
Cons
  • Cable type and connector fields conflict
  • Data rate units look wrong
  • Short length limits reach

Performance notes

Charging speed is capped by the current and voltage rating, which gives modest wattage. The phone and the charger decide the real speed. Data moves at a basic speed, so large transfers are slow.
