Understanding USB-C Charging Capabilities

These cables are designed to carry more power than its previous adaptation. USB-C supports USB Power Delivery which enhances charging rates. Because of USB Power Delivery, USB-C cables are able to support up to 100 watts of power. This allows USB-C cables to charge larger devices. Because of this technology, USB-C charging becomes more powerful. As long as your mobile devices have a USB-C charging port, be it a smartphone, tablet or laptop, it will certainly support fast charging. You will also need a wall adapter that supports high wattages. Many smartphone companies ship out standard 5w USB-A chargers, which is not nearly enough to make full use of the USB-C fast charging capabilities. You would want at least a 18w charger or higher, if you are looking to charge larger devices.

Manufacturers make it easy for us to get the type of cable we need. The label, branding and description plays an important part when choosing the one that you are going to buy. Because of the thick wires that USB-C cables have, it is believed that the thicker cables are better at charging than the slimmer ones. This is true sometimes, but it is not an effective way to identify a fast-charging cable. However, you should shy away from buying a cheap and ridiculously thin charging cables. To save you the hassle of differentiating a fast-charging cable to a regular one, you should only purchase them from a certified store. Cheap USB-C cables may cause damage to your precious devices when charging, so be sure to choose a store that you can trust.

Some of our cables feature an L-Shape Connector which allows you to play games or watch videos on your phone with ease. If you are using a regular cable and try to turn your phone sideways, it can be frustrating to get your device to stay sideways. The Right Angle Connector Cable is available for both Micro USB and Type-C phones.
