So, at less than 12, this short cable is a bit of a bargain. I bought this to connect my Samsung T7 SSD to my new ASUS ZenBook Duo laptop for backup purposes. It works a treat.
Using CrystalBenchMark, transfer speeds have gone from ~47 MB/s with my old cable to ~1018 MB/s with this one, thus drastically reducing backup times.
With a reasonable price and next morning delivery, I am rather chuffed
This lead does what it’s supposed to do effectively. Only a couple of problems. The lead is very sturdy but inflexible and the ports feel wobbly when connected to my brand new laptop.
Purchased this as I couldn’t justify the ridiculous 129 for the longer Apple Thunderbolt cable.
I’m using to connect my Mac Studio to may Apple Studio Monitor.
What I can say is that it worked without issue and after a couple of weeks I’,m full convinced it’s my bargain of the year.
I don’t charge a laptop with it so can’t say anything about it’s current(as in AMPS) limits but for data it works a treat.
That single event? Whether or not it worked as a replacement for the original TB4 cable that came with my hub (original cable was about 30cm too short to be useful).
When I swapped the original hub cable for this new Silkland one — the Silkland one worked. Instant five stars.
Should I notice any strange goings-on, I’ll come back here and amend this review.
Background:
Bought for an Anker all-singing, all-dancing powered hub.
Everything plugs into the Anker hub: keyboard and mouse dongle, bluetooth headset dongle, ultra-wide screen monitor, additional USB-C to USB-C portable monitor, headset USB, 100W Power Delivery OEM charger cable/USB-C. Then, all of this gets routed to the laptop via this TB4 cable as a single cable solution so that when a single cable is plugged into the laptop, it provides both PD power and connectivity for every device needed. It’s great to be able to only have to plug in and remove a single cable when you want to use the laptop as a plain old laptop. Plug in one single cable and you’ve got a desktop solution as well. So as you can see, it was essential that the Silkland cable (1 metre) worked as well as the Anker cable (70cm) and it does.
