Price in title inclusive of GST.
3A charging and 480mbps transfer speeds seems pretty good for $3.33~ while being able to charge multiple devices at once and being a braided cable cant really go wrong at this price, reviews also seem positive too.
1.2 meters long
Specifications on Aliexpress:
USB Type:Standard
Use:Smart Devices
Package:Yes
Certified:3C CE
I'm presuming since it states Data transfer capability, that it should sync with no issues.
just iphone only. no data sync over usb-c or micro port.
Save $3 and don’t order this, breaks down after a handful of uses.
Save $1000 and don't get a iphone
Sound advice. It looks like your saving typing "n" for "an" and the overuse of your shift key and full stop key. Bargain.
@Daabido: Some people consider "an" iphone as a euphemism for a male sexual organ hence typing of "n" is non-compulsory.
How long is the cable?
1.2M will add to post
Stop asking question when you don't even go on the deal page. 1st comment said that no data only charge
said that no data only charge
Description states : 480mbps transfer speeds
Who the hell care about Chinese description of their product, Users clearly stated that its no data. Damn too many chinese fellow here downvoting anything that go against them
Who cares what users state, they didn't make the product. The manufacturer description should be more accurate as they made it so know exactly what it can do.
charge multiple devices at once
What could possibly go wrong
Nothing. The power will be split between each device.
Good for charging multiple different devices at once with a single cable. Not so good for charging same type of devices.
Mine just arrived (ordered 3 weeks ago) but I havent tested it yet. I'll be using it in the car stereo that arrives later this week.
Not the most helpful comment I’ve ever seen…
Well they did provide a timeframe for when orders arrive by - 3 weeks is okay I guess
They also mentioned they are getting a car stereo, so you'd assume they will be ordering speakers soon too…
We’re building a pretty good profile. Nice work!
Then, if all goes to plan, he’ll be buying a car
Cool story bro!
Charges both an iphone and android phone at the same time, good charging speeds. Charges only when plugged into PC. I've got a baseus one. I'll plug it into the back of a 2DIN android media player for the car.
Thanks for the helpful comments and downvotes :/
comes in 3 colours too - black, red and blue
for all intents and purposes… it is :P
so if my hair is black, my hair has no colour?
black is the absence of light, it's not a colour.
@jv: Good valid arguement when you give someone a shiner…
'he doesn't have a black eye your Honour, I just happened to punch all the colours out of his face'
@PuppieWayne: Pretty much. So since black isn't a colour, the investigators will also have a field day when witnesses say the suspect had hair with "no colour"
It's all of the colours
that's white
@jv: Looks black to me.
In art, white is the absence of all color and black is the presence of all color. To artists, black is considered a color, white is generally not.
In light, the opposite holds true. Black is the absence of color, and white is the presence of all color.
To scientists, white is a bunch of colors, and black is not.
Will this do fastcharge?
No it won't as the data wires are needed.
In QC2.0 chargers, there is an interface chip that takes commands from the phone over the USB data lines. The commands tell the charger what voltage to supply.
The image depicts charging 3 different devices simultaneously…
I am concerned that in the following scenario this cable might damage one or more of your devices:
* multiple devices connected
* fast charging, multi-voltage powerpack attached
* one device supports fast charge and requests 19V
* another device incompatible with fast charge and expects only 5V
Can someone technical please confirm if this is a risk?
Ill test mine tonight charging two phones at once. I'm guessing it will split the power charge, so both phones will charge slowly.
I'm worried it might fry the electronics of the device that does not support fast charge and cannot cope with voltages greater than 5 volts.
in that case i wont test it with multiple phones at once. I'm sure in the reviews for the product there would be complaints regarding electronics being fried. Possibly youtube videos about it too.
It can’t charge simultaneously, tested with IPad and iPhone.
Edit: And it takes ages to charge a IPad Pro 11’ 2018.
Well… How much is iPad pro and how much is this cable…
A couple of the AliExpress reviews say it only charges, no data, or as per the comment above maybe only connected on the Lightning connector.
I don't know the ins-and-outs of fast charging tech but I'm assuming if you only have the power pins connected the charger will only output the stock standard 5V since there are no data pins to run the charging protocols on - ofcourse that contradicts the whole QC 3.0 logo on the page but hey, it's AliExpress :P
From a pure wiring point of view, if one of the connectors does communicate to a charger to ramp up the voltage then yes you would probably damage the other device; if not immediately then certainly in not too long.
- multiple devices connected
The power will be split between each device.
- fast charging, multi-voltage powerpack attached
- one device supports fast charge and requests 19V
- another device incompatible with fast charge and expects only 5V
They are all irrelevant as fast charging will not work on a cable without data wires.
In QC2.0 chargers, there is an interface chip that takes commands from the phone over the USB data lines. The commands tell the charger what voltage to supply.
These cables are shiit. Never again. Mainly the 3in1’s.
S8 and XS max are always complaining.
what did ya expect from a for a $3 cable.
Agree. Cables are handy for their multiple connectors but don't expect fast charging. My note 8 charges so slowly the battery actually goes down if used while charging.
What are you doing with it exactly? Genuine question cos I'd hope it's under some pretty heavy load to use up more than say a standard 1A or 1.5A @ 5V.
Or more to the point, is indicating crappy cable quality if it can't even do basic charging well.
Are there any good cables I can buy? Dont need iphone charging just Micro USB and C.
I like my Wsken cable. But it's far more than $3.
With the one magnetic cable, you can just buy a separate tip for each device be it lightning, microusb or usb c.
Title misleading. It's not a charger. It's a cable
have a similar one that I bought on eBay. Does not do quick charging not 3A throughput. Got my money back. Price is good if the cable does what it claims to be able to do
That's USD. but yes cheaper and rock is better brand. I'm cancelling mine (this post)
Cheaper but uglier
Bought thanks
It will be perfect for us to go out with a power bank as my family mobile phones have all the three USB types. Guys what do you expect from a $2 cable.
It should be fine for powerbanks useful if you have multiple devices
Love these kind of cables for car chargers
I seriously doubt that it can charge your car.
I’ve got a Baseus branded one of these and could not be happier - still going strong after couple of years of use, no complaining from my iPhone Xs and can charge multiple devices simultaneously.
MFI?
handy! i could charge my Switch, iPhone, & powerbank all at once.
these are poor quality cables, you really have to be spending at least $8 for a decent one. Shouldn't be thought of as a 3in 1 but as a cable with two separate adapters attached to it.
2.18 US with GST ;)

Thanks OP. Brought a couple. Having the versatility would be good. I've been in situations before where I have had mates with the latest Android phones but they forget their cable and I can't help them out with USB-C charging.
All the ones I have bought before dont work;
Will this also sync an iphone? or just a charge?
