Quality cable
Nice length for bedside charging and much better quality for a few dollars more than the cheaper ones that only last a couple years

Long sturdy cable
I have bought cheap cables in the past and expect a long life from this one. while not as flexible as some it has a solid feel to it.

Things to consider
This cable is best for everyday charging and basic syncing, but it uses USB 2.0 with up to 480Mbps transfer speeds, so it is not as fast for large file transfers as newer higher-speed premium cables.
Fast charging suitability
Good for compatible everyday fast charging up to 3A, but limited by USB-A and not designed for the highest modern USB-C charging standards.
Multi-device compatibility
Works with most USB-C phones and tablets when used with a USB-A charger, laptop, desktop, or power bank.
Travel suitability
8/10 - lightweight, versatile, and long enough for awkward power point placement in hotels or airports.
Durability vs category average
7/10 - durable PVC and moulded connectors are solid for everyday use, though not as rugged as braided or reinforced premium cables.
Ease of use score
9/10 - simple plug-and-play cable with a common USB-A connection and a practical 2 m length.
Key benefits
- 2 m Length: Gives you extra reach for charging from wall sockets, desks, or bedside tables without needing to stay close to the power source.
- USB-C to USB-A Connection: Lets you connect compatible USB-C phones and tablets to common USB-A chargers, laptops, and power banks.
- Up to 3A Charging: Supports faster everyday charging for compatible devices when paired with a suitable USB-A charger.
- Up to 480Mbps Data Transfer: Makes it easy to sync photos, music, and everyday files between your device and computer.
- PVC Construction: Helps the cable handle regular daily use with added flexibility and durability.
- Seamlessly Moulded Connectors: Adds strength around the connector points to help reduce wear from repeated plugging and unplugging.
- Broad Device Support: Works with most USB-C phones and tablets that need a USB-A connection for charging or syncing.
- 2 Year Manufacturer's Warranty: Offers added peace of mind for an everyday accessory you are likely to use often.
Q: Will this cable charge an iPhone 15 from a USB-A charger
A: Yes. This cable has USB-C on the device end, so it suits iPhone 15 models when the charger or computer has a USB-A port. It is not the right cable for older iPhones that use a Lightning connector instead of USB-C.
Q: Can it fast charge a laptop or mainly phones and tablets
A: The Cygnett Essentials USB-C To USB-A Cable is mainly suited to phones and tablets. It supports 3A and 60W, but USB-A connections are usually not the setup used for full USB-C laptop charging, so it is not the best choice for most laptops.
Q: Does this USB-C cable support video output to a monitor
A: No. This cable is designed for charging and USB 2.0 data transfer between a USB-C device and a USB-A port. It is not the right cable for USB-C display features such as connecting a monitor or other video output use.
Q: Is USB 2.0 quick enough for everyday file transfers
A: Yes, for routine syncing. This cable supports 480Mbps over USB 2.0, which suits photos, music and everyday files, but large backups or big video transfers will take longer than with a higher-speed cable.
Q: Can I use it with a power bank or car charger
A: Yes, if the power bank or car charger has a USB-A output. The cable connects USB-C phones and tablets to common USB-A charging ports, but charging speed still depends on the charger and the device you plug in.
