Anker's newest USB-C cables are a smart way to future-proof your tech

On the hunt for a USB-C cable? Look no further than Anker’s latest and greatest USB-C cables — because not all cables are created equal! These beauties deliver everything you desire from a cable.

Anker has unveiled two shiny new USB-C to USB-C PowerLine III cables. Coming in 3 ft (90 cm) and 6 ft (180 cm) lengths, they feature a soft, tangle-free silicone finish that’s as stylish as it is functional. These cables are rigorously tested to withstand an impressive 25,000 bends, boast a blazing data rate of 480 Mbps, and are equipped with a built-in E-Mark chip which means that it is capable of delivering a whopping 240W of power!

Pro Tip: To harness this incredible power, you’ll need compatible chargers and devices that can actually draw it. For most users, the most power-hungry device will be a laptop — a MacBook Pro, for example, can pull 140W of power.

Need a cable to charge your phone? This is it. Looking for something you can roll up and toss in your pocket? Look no further. Need to connect your PC to a printer, 3D printer, or any other peripheral? You guessed it — this cable has you covered!

I’ve been an avid user of Anker cables for years, and I’m a huge fan of their 60W and 100W silicone Flow cables. They’re incredibly durable, won’t turn into a tangled mess, and can handle years of use without breaking a sweat.

Plus, these cables come with Anker’s 18-month warranty, so you can buy them with confidence.

Rest assured, I’m snagging a few of these in both lengths.

Now, you might wonder whether anyone really needs a 240W USB-C cable. Unless you own a device that can utilize that much power — something like the Realme GT NEO 5 — the answer is probably no. 

However, investing in this cable is a smart way to future-proof your tech collection. Considering these cables are priced between $17 and $19 (yes, just an extra $2 for an additional yard of cable), you’re getting incredible value for a product that will last for years.
