3-in-1 Magnetic Charging Cable 2 Pack (1M + 1M) Nylon Braided USB C Data Cable for iPhone/Samsung/Micro USB Devices, Black
P**S
Extremely weak magnets, so annoying, disconnects at slightest touch.
These are an absolute nightmare, I wish I'd never bought them. They seem decent, the quality looks good, the little part that plugs in the phone fits well, and then you attach the cable, it snaps on magnetically pretty well and you think "how fab" then, the slightest bloody touch disconnects the damned thing. The magnets are seriously poor. It's constantly disconnecting and therefore not charging. I checked someone else's, they could hold the cable, with the phone dangling attached only by their magnetic cable and it wasn't falling off, the difference was ridiculous. That just made me even more annoyed that I'd bought such a weak, useless set. I will buy some different ones, but they'll be the brand the other person has, so I know I can rely on them.

Make kids devices so much easier
Have bought 3 sets of these, and the tips are in anything the kids interact with. Fire tablets, bluetooth speaker, my phone. All charge great with them, and none of them will suffer from the port damage or cable damage that comes from kids not pulling plugs out properly. Magnets on all the ones I've had are nice and strong, can pick my Pixel 3 up by the wire. Nice selection of tips included, having them in their own little bag is a nice touch too as they don't instantly get lost. Oldest set are 7 months old now, have been on the kids fires in daily use and aren't showing any issues with age. Considering how quickly they used to kill usb cables these are a bargain.

Charging problems
I bought two packs of black and one red and the quality of the cables is good. They feel robust and the red ones look really nice. The charging tips don't feel anywhere near as robust but I haven't had any break on me yet. I really like the narrow design to the tips, it means they fit with almost all cases on a number of devices I have tested. Another plus with this company in particular is that they sell the tips separately which is something I was looking out for. That being said, as I bought three packs I did not need to purchase any more anyway as you get two of each type (micro usb, lightning and usb-c) in every pack.Unfortunately I have had charging problems. They have charged most things I have plugged them into, including:- Sony headphones- Corsair headset- S10+ (the phone reports slow charging no matter the cable/plug combination I use)- iPhone 5- Multiple battery banksI have attempted to charge a iPad Air 4 but it didn't even report "not charging". It simply did not detect it was plugged in at all. A combination of that and the slow charging on my android device means I would recommend going with another make of magnetic charging cables.

Poor Vale. Fell apart.
Missing 1 lightning adapter (not a major concern) but one of the USB C adapters fell apart on first use and is now unusable. Not at all durable, for the price it is poor value. It does not appear you can buy the extra adapters so I'm down to just one. May as well revert back to a standard cable. Very dissapointed.

Works well and data works too
I’ve had one like this before, but the eldest lost the magnetic end. So when the youngest broke my last proper cable, I decided to try the magnetic ones again. I have one in my phone and one in the iPad, they work really well and fit in with my cases - I have heavy duty thick cases for each, and they’re not obstructed in any way.Data transfer works - I have used it with carplay in the car - you need to get the cable the right way round though. The way it connects is via a set of pins that only connect fully one way round, so while charging will work any which way you plug it, the data transfer only works one way. I have it so the led faces upwards when I plug it in so I know it’ll work.The job, you might say, is a good one.

TIP TOP TIPS AND CRACKING CABLES: WHAT ELSE DOES ONE NEED? 🤷🏻♂️😂
I am really impressed by these cables and the companion connectors - the first that I have come across that fit through a variety of phone cases! Well-made, sturdy, and - I hope - durable (they certainly seem to be, but it’s early days!), I have been so impressed that I have given a set to my wife and ordered a replacement set for myself. They appear to represent great value for money.I notice that the green LED of the originals have been replaced with a white LED on newer offerings. I am also impressed by the manufacturer’s affirmatory advice to return incompatible cables to Amazon, and statement that they will replace cables that cease to function.I’m not looking anywhere else for cables or connectors...for now!

Very handy
I bought 2 packs (1m+1m & 1m+2m) so I could have them around the house and also in my car. All my relevant devices now have a connector in so I'm all set. My husband also bought a pair so we have the same ones and can interchange with the cars etc. No more worries about trying to plug the charger into phones when driving, and no more having to have multiple cables with different connectors.

Two lots of Two packs, Zero data or fast charge success
Looking at the good reviews here, I ordered two packs of 2 which arrived today.I tried them in every port of two PCs, one Laptop and a variety of chargers, I could get only slow charge, and no data at all. Tried all combinations of magnetic ends, different devices to plug in, nothing.All devices tested worked fine with conventional USB cables.I don't know if I received an existing return (these appear to be the green-lit older cables) or I'm just unlucky, but these were not remotely as advertised.
