Belkin BoostCharge Pro Flex Braided USB-C to USB-A Cable (1M/3.3FT) USB-IF Certified Fast Charging Cable for iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Pro, iPad, Galaxy S25, Note, Pixel, Nintendo Switch 2 & More - Black

Most reason for this purchase is that it is not plastic. The winter and cold will cause plastic to stiffen and be brittle. The next reason is needing a better charging cable. Most cables that come with a device dont last long having a cable that will be useful and not a drag on, not just battery charging but also transferring data when you need it or plugging in to your car as your travel. It is designed with compatability to super fast chargers as well. Quality, stability, reliability, price are all worth the name brand.

Use this to connect to CarPlay in my ‘21 Toyota Highlander. It connects more consistently and reliably than any other cord I’ve used. I didn’t realize what a difference the cord makes. I’ll never use anything else.

I bought this USB-A to USB-C data transfer cable after struggling with Apple CarPlay not working with my iPhone 16 in both my 2019 Subaru Forester and 2020 Jeep Compass. CarPlay would not connect at all even after trying several different cables. I took the Jeep to the dealer, and they quoted me $665 to “diagnose and repair” the issue — which turned out to be totally unnecessary. After some research, I learned that not all USB-C cables support data transfer, and CarPlay with the iphone16 needs a proper data-capable cable, not just a charging one. This Belkin cable fixed the problem immediately in both cars. CarPlay now connects instantly and stays connected. No glitches, no disconnects — just smooth functionality like it’s supposed to. If your CarPlay isn’t working and your phone uses USB-C, try this cord before spending hundreds at the dealership. It’s a cheap fix that saved me a ton of money and frustration.

Cable is awesome

I like the length of this cord and the strength seems good too. I do however have a criticism of the magnetic holder. The magnet itself is fine, although it could be stronger, but they made the part that attaches to the cord, rubber, so it doesn't slide through at all. You can attach it to a surface, but the length won't adjust easily. It's either attached to the magnet or plugged into your phone. I'd prefer to attach it to the surface and slide it through the connected part to attach to my phone. I know that may not make much sense, but it will if you buy it. I'd still recommend it, the cord itself is still good.

Works just find and does better with android auto that other cords ive had that get sensitive

Keeps all my cables organized and because it is magnetic, I can just stick them to the metal next to the bed or in the office and I don’t have to keep looking for any chargers. The cable is thick, flexible and durable. It has fast charging not just for phones but also earbud cases. The tea true feels soft and not rough to the touch. Easy to connect once plugged in. Definitely worth the value of the money.

These are my preferred charging cords! The woven cable is durable and easy to keep clean. I like the black option for my car since it matches the interior, though I wish there were more color choices beyond black and white. The connector fits perfectly, even with an Apple phone case, so the charging port isn’t too large. Just make sure to use an Apple charging adapter it makes a big difference for fast charging.

Charging time is good, quality feels durable, it is not my first purchase, I have bought this a few years ago and still using it, rubber is still like new, I wanted a longer one this time for my office desk so decided to go for the same brand. Given the length, it's improved functionality if I need to check something on my phone whilst charging I can freely check it without unplugging.

The silicone cord is so flexible and soft to the touch, but thick and sturdy. Won't ever kink. Excellent quality. No complaints. Works perfectly to charge.

After Apple switched iPhones to USB-C, finding a USB-C to USB-A cable that actually works with CarPlay became frustrating. Apple doesn’t sell one, and most third-party listings don’t clearly say if they support data transfer. Many just charge the phone, but won’t work for CarPlay. So if you’re here wondering: yes, this Belkin cable works for CarPlay. I use it in my car where the port is USB-A, and it connects instantly every time. No weird dropouts, no lag, no “accessory not supported” errors. I’ve had it for over a year and it’s held up better than most Apple cables. No fraying, no dead zones when shifting the wire, which is rare for a cable that lives in a car full-time. Definitely recommend it if you’re in the same situation.

Solucionó los problemas de conexión con mi Geely Coolray :) anteriormente usé 3 cables diferentes y todos me daban el mismo problema, conectaba un Samsung Galaxy S23 ultra y cerraba la aplicación a los pocos segundos, igualmente con un iPhone 17 pro max, pero llevo una semana utilizándolo y no he vuelto a tener inconvenientes, considerando el comprar otro para tenerlo de repuesto. ☺️

Good quality and comes with a magnetic holder that I found very useful
