Any cheap usb-c right angle cables to recommend?
I realize some usb c cables can charge, some can transmit data and charge and some donāt work
Compatibility is ****ed up, to put it mildly
I bought my cheap USB-C cables from 2 sources.
1. Charging
Baseus cables are rated at 100W USB C PD standard .
Can be purchased from Shopee for only SGD $6-7 per cable .
I do have a couple of USB-C chargers lying around ( including my car) so I bought over 10 of these cheap USB-C cables just for charging.
The Ugreen brand has some right angled ones that you need.
These are cheap because their data transfer speeds are only 480 Mbps speeds.
2. Data Transfer
Cables rated for high data transfers are usually much more expensive.
For that, I suggest getting your cheap cables from Amazon.
To ensure that your cables can support fast speeds, cheap Thunderbolt 3 or TB 4 cables can be purchased.
Amazon also sells cheap USB 4 rated cables. Eg Riitop brand or their Amazon basics brand .
Average price is around USD $15 per cable.
I seldom do data transfers so I only purchased 2-3 of these.
They are expensive but can also support at least 100W charging too.
