Overview
A braided exterior wraps this Anker Zolo cable, which carries both power and data between a USB-A socket and a USB-C device. The description says it supports full CarPlay functionality and coils neatly.
A cable that handles CarPlay, charging and syncing makes a car and bag setup simple, and the braid is rated for repeated bending. The limitation is that charging tops out at a modest power level and the data speed is capped.
Who it's for
Drivers using CarPlay with a USB-A port, and anyone wanting a tough charging cable for a bag or desk, are the target. Owners of laptops, or users needing very fast data speeds, should choose a higher rated cable.
Pros and cons
- Charge and sync together
- Warranty term listed
- Two lengths described
- Power capped at a modest level
- Data speed is limited
Performance notes
A braid of many strands protects the cable from pulls and bends, and the stated test covers repeated flexing. Power is delivered up to a modest wattage, enough for phones, while data runs at the listed speed. CarPlay operation depends on the car and phone.
