USB cables are not all equal. I use a charging current app to determine the rate of charge. Many cheaper cables throttle the current coming from the charger anywhere from 600 mA to 1000 mA. Not these cables. I get the full 1800 mA. This results in faster charging times and a rate that will exceed what your continued use of the device and display will be using.

PROS: Fastest charge possible.

Long mini-usb flange for inserting through thicker case openings

Thinner cord than expected

Great cable and connector quality. They are sturdy and inexpensive. The cable works with the 2.1A chargers so my phone charges in half the time and the data transfer through a PC is flawless.

PROS: Sturdy, inexpensive, allows charging and data transfer

CONS: None

Very worth it cable.

PROS: The cable has a nice feel to it, gold plated tips on both ends and has a value price.

CONS: Getting this in white like I did, you'll stain it. So if you don't like stains get it in black.

Great product. See the pros/cons for my thoughts

PROS: These look and feel just like the cables for Apple products, except they have STANDARD connectors!

The "bite" of the micro-usb is very good. It does not slip out or have difficulty maintaining a connection

CONS: None.

Much better cable assembly then ones I purchased from another mail order house. Those felt like they were going to damage the socket of the phone.

These have that positive feel when connecting without any roughness.

PROS: Positive feel to engage the device.

Secure fit.

Comfortable grip.

CONS: None

Got what I expected in working condition as expected.

Works just fine to charge my smartphone with both low power computer USB port charging and high power charge using a Monoprice 12-outlet surge protector (PID: 9203). I don't do any sync'ing with my phone so I haven't tried that. The connector housing is small (thin) and LOOKS like it would connect to a phone that has a case around it.

My new tablet came with the flimsiest cable and charger imagineable. After only 3 months the cable wouldn't stay in and just fell out making charging impossible at worst and sometimes took 8 or 10 hours at best. This cable fits snugly and with a new charger my tablet is now completely charged in less than 2 hours.

PROS: Sturdy

CONS: None so far

The connection that these cables make is so solid that I like to plug it into my phone, hold it in the air, and swing it around like a pendulum.



The micro B connector works like that for several months, too, but it will ultimately wear down. The connection on the CABLE is supposed to do that per the spec-cables are cheaper to replace than USB ports are.



Buy a dozen, and when they're no longer up to snuff, throw them away. It's STILL cheaper than a single OEM cable for your device.

PROS: Superb quality. Very flexible. Excellent strain relief.

CONS: None.

As long as Monoprice continues manufacturing such a nice cable at such a reasonable price, I will be back for more and more. The finished ends of the cables are what impressed me the most. The quality and price are excellent.
