Flexible sturdy and fast. Anker the name itself represents durability. Please go for it. Its not flexible as nylon braid but better in its own kind of material. It’s definitely flexible.
They feel good, look good and do their job very well so far. Not much else to say.
Sleeving has a rather odd texture and the cable is quite stiff initially, but does what it’s supposed to. The colour is nice, though lighter than the image. The integrated cable tie is a useful addition.
Cables are a little shorter than I expected .it would help to have a metric length on the listing.but there a great cable as always from anker these are going to be used in the car for phone charging .got a great deal on prime day
I recently purchased the Anker 543 USB C to USB C Cable, and I must say it has proven to be a reliable and efficient charging cable. This cable is designed for USB-C to USB-C connections and offers a length of 6 feet (1.8 meters).
One notable feature of this cable is its power delivery capability. With a power rating of 140W, it is capable of handling high-power charging requirements. This makes it suitable for charging a variety of devices, including laptops, tablets, smartphones, and other USB-C devices that support fast charging.
The cable is constructed using bio-based materials, which is a commendable aspect for those concerned about environmental sustainability. It’s great to see manufacturers like Anker making efforts to use eco-friendly materials in their products. The cable’s build quality is excellent, with a sturdy feel and durable construction that inspires confidence in its longevity.
In terms of performance, the Anker 543 cable delivers reliable charging speeds. It supports USB 2.0 transfer speeds, which may not be as fast as some higher-speed USB standards, but it is still sufficient for most charging and data transfer needs. I found that my devices charged consistently and efficiently when using this cable.
The 6-foot length is convenient for various scenarios where a longer reach is required. It allows flexibility in positioning your device while still maintaining a reliable connection to the power source. However, for more portable and on-the-go usage, a shorter cable length may be preferred to avoid excessive cable clutter.
One aspect to note is that due to its thicker gauge wire, the cable can be slightly stiffer compared to some other USB-C cables. This might make it less flexible and slightly harder to manage, especially when trying to wrap it or store it in a compact space.
In terms of value, the Anker 543 USB C to USB C Cable offers a solid combination of power delivery, durability, and eco-friendliness. It is a reliable charging cable that handles high-power charging needs effectively. While it may not offer the fastest data transfer speeds and could be more flexible, it still provides good value for the price. If you’re looking for a sturdy and capable USB-C to USB-C cable, the Anker 543 is definitely worth considering.
I have a couple of these in different colours, for misc devices that just need USB PD power.
While these cables will pass data, I think they’re only wired for USB-2 data, so 480Mbps or so- which is fine, it’s not what they’re for, but they’re functional in a pinch.
However, I use them for their intended role, powering things- I have a little portable mixer that runs from USB PD, as well as higher drain applications, like a couple of laptops and a Pinecil soldering iron. I can power any of them without worrying about the cable letting me down. The weird colours are a positive boon as it makes it easy to spot them in the box of useful USB cables, or trace them in use.
They’re also cheaper than the previous Anker power cable I bought (which powers this Macbook!) and rated for more power, which is nice. I have reasonable confidence in Anker power cables not bursting into flame, so it’s nice to see them becoming more affordable. Also, it’s good to have some spares rather than being tempted to grab unrated cables because they’re easier to find!
Wish this is cheaper and had a strain relief jacket.
Quality excellent. The cable feels well made and of higher quality
I only use it to deliver a small fraction of its rated power. It does the job without any problems. It goes well with my 5-series charger and its white colour. What I however like the most is the eco-friendly plastic which is used to produce this cable.
I’ve got several shorter versions but needed a longer one, does the job perfectly and is well made I really rate Anker’s ki
I an scared of buying gadget things on line because it might not be the real safe product. Anker is a name I trust and their products are I recommend without a doubt. It is well made as you will see on arrival. I’ve purchased quite a few gadgets like this long lead for my iPad, power bank for my daughters phone and other stuff.
This is an excellent cable. I use it solely to charge a number of different devices and have no complaints whatsoever with the construction quality of the charge speed. The fact it’s made in part with bio-based materials is an added bonus and seemingly has no negative impact on the strength of the casing.
Loose connection after 2 weeks no longer charging
After writing this review Anker got in touch with me via amazon to offer replacement fir the faulty cable, this arrived a few days later & so far so good, it’s fast charging as it should be! Excellent customer care, hopefully this product will live up to the good quality I’ve had in my previous anker products
Nice cable with a nice cable tidy. Feels good and long enough that my kids sit on the kitchen floor using their devices while charging them!
Ordered thinking it would fit a standard Apple adapter- it doesn’t as both ends are the same as the iPad access, had to order the Anker plug adapter- arrived today, charged iPad promptly. Happy now I have both lead and plug adapter – wasn’t clear I needed both at the time of ordering the lead
It is sturdy and not as flimsy as some cables. Hoping it lasts longer than my others. The length is good so I don’t have to sit on the charger to use my phone while using it.
I’m a tremendous fan of Anker products and I have several of these charging leads. I expected the same quality from the white lead as previous coloured ones but instead of being soft and supple it feels rigid and less giving unlike the silicone ones, hence the 4 star rating. However, It charges my iPad quickly and that’s the important thing and Anker will continue to be my first choice for leads and chargers.
