Replacement USB-C phone cable

[El Jimben]

I'm sure there was a recommendation thread somewhere but I can't find it! I'm after a new cable to replace my frayed one, preferably a braided one. What do people recommend that won't end up setting my house on fire?

What length do you need.

These will be fine unless you need more than 3A 60W.

Deal: LISEN 60W USB C Cable, 4-Pack [0.5M+1M+2M+2M] USB C to USB C Cable, Nylon USBC to USBC Cable for Samsung Galaxy S24, iPhone 15, Pixel, Mi, MacBook Air Pro, iPad Charger Cable https://amzn.eu/d/5a6BWva

IKEA ones are surprisingly good, too, if you happen to be near one of their places.

ive had no issues with the jsaux ones, use them with my steam deck and they are braided too.

Anker do a 2m braided (up to 100w) usb-c cable for £7. Been using a few of them for phones/laptops without issue

Got some braided TOPK and BlitzWolf ones that seem pretty good and do 60W charging. Neither brand have failed me yet but i tend to look after them and not use them as skipping ropes so no idea how well they would stand up to harsh treatment.

Thanks all, I went with @kona786's suggestion.

I have been really impressed with Anker and that pretty much all I bit now.
Also like the sabrent beaded cables.

I tend to buy Anker cables and they've been reliable over the years. Their CS is normally pretty good too if you have any problems with anything.

Anker are too pricey for me for just a cable. Tbh their powerbanks are a bit overpriced too.

Does the cable run through the middle of the bead? Would make then more crush resistant I suppose!

I just like the sound they make.
