Works flawlessly with Oculus Link for Oculus Quest!
Reviewed in Canada on November 21, 2019
For product owners: You should add Oculus Link support to your list of supported devices, that will attract a LOT of attention.I bought this on a whim to use with my Oculus Quest for the new Oculus Link (Beta).Holy smokes! The cord works perfectly, 10 ft is just enough for my small play area, though I wish I could have gone a bit longer. I attempted to use a USB 3.0 extension, but my guess is that the USB 3.1 is the minimum for Oculus Link as it did not work.It also came with a bundling strap that WORKS PERFECTLY to tie the cord back similar to the rift/rift S's plastic clip.Absolute dream cable here, 10/10 would recommend a buy.

I have tried many cables&adapters&hub combinations to eatablish an Oculus link between my quest and my laptop. After countless hours of trying, this basic amazonbasics cable came to rescue. Spending $109 to official cable was not an acceptable solution for me. Solving those problems costed me more in the long run but at least i have a result.
Established a solid 2.4 gbps connection with usb 3. With some other aftermarket cables i was only able to get usb 2.0 connection with 367mbps.
This works! Stop looking for something else

I have learned that any braided nylon cord made by AmazonBasics are worth their weight in gold. I use these in our home, in shared areas within our home, at work where everyone borrows it and in our vehicles. Since discovering the AmazonBasics brand of charging cords, I have yet to replace one. They last longer than the standard cords and I have not had any separation issues at the base. Purchased a dual iPhone/ android and it broke in weeks, this cord has not. They charge quickly. I don't know why a good quality charging cord has made such a difference but man, I am so happy I found these. Bought a set for each of the teenage children in my life for Christmas and they couldn't even break them. Great purchase. Approved by Apple (I have purchased iPhone and Samsung versions). Peace of mind when using power that they are rated and approved by the company.

I bought a 1 foot long cable in dark grey. I thought the price was a bit high for such a short cable, but I was impressed with its quality. It includes a built-in velcro strap which is great for storage. The USB Type-C side plugs smoothly into my Samsung smartphone and stays firmly in place when I pick up my cell. The only issue I'm having is that I have to wiggle or slightly pull out the USB side from my laptop in order for it to connect to my cell. Besides that, it works perfectly and charges my cell when plugged into my laptop.

As of this reviewing this I own a Samsung Galaxy S9 & I was looking for a good quality, durable & reliable USB C charger cord. So I went on a whim & purchased this Amazon Basics brand..... Best choice i could have made!! It is USB 3.0 built, so it supports Fast Charging "Cha-ching" & its heavy duty material (As of this moment) is prone to nicks & Wear 'n Tear "Double Cha-ching"!! Plus the price is a steal!! If your looking for a good quality phone cord, do yourself a favor & pick this one, you'll be glad you did!!!

Very Strong nice looking cable looks like it will last forever. Very pleased charged phone no problem.
Works perfect for Oculus Quest link. The cable is fairly thick. However played oculus games and steam vr games no problem with this cable. Very well built cable. Remember if you are thinking of questing with it it is slightly thick and rigid but I still think its great. 3 Meter cable at least essential for Quest
I see one user says it does not work with Quest ! It really does I'm not a fake reviewer and it works on my laptop and my desktop with quest. I have several other cables that dont . This was does and works well may be a little on the stiff side but it really works . This is not fake information. There must be an issue with the USB on users machines who do not work remember it must be a usb 3 socket to work

Excellent quality
Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on October 24, 2019Verified Purchase
I was looking for a decent length USB 3 A to C cable ready for Oculus Link next month and after hours of searching I came across this one. It was delivered in perfect condition on time (prime) in the usual simple amazon basics packaging. It did come with a branded Velcro tie which was a nice touch.
First impression was that it was THICK. This does make it a bit stiff but for me this was a good indicator of durability.
So far I've used it to charge power banks and transfer files from a gopro and it performed as expected, no issues at all. Would certainly recommend to anyone looking for a decent good value USB a to c cable.
Update: Works great with oculus link

Absolutely, the best cable satisfaction ever
Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on September 30, 2020Verified Purchase
This cable has convinced me to put my money with AmazonBasics rather than Anker where there are like-for-like products. Firstly, the thickness, finish 'weight' to this cable are all utterly premium. It looks classy, so much so that it's almost a shame that it has the word 'basic' attached to the brand! Perhaps AmazonEssential or AmazonElite would be better.
I digress. The charging and data speeds are all extremely reliable, more so than my equivalent Anker cables; some of my devices take issue with some 1.8m Anker cables, and whilst I'm sure Anker can't be totally at blame, those same devices charge at full speed every time with this cable!
My fiancé has a very expensive phone, and we kitted her out with Anker's most expensive cables and charger, but honestly, I will be going with AmazonBasics when they have the equivalent cables and charger. It is arguable that this cable looks just as premium as any of Anker's cables, but (and an important but), but it feels 100% certainly more sturdy. So arguably as premium, but definitely more sturdy than Anker's. I'm sold, thank you!

After Oculus Link got released, I was looking for a decent length USB C cable that would work with it.
Of course the 3m cable Oculus recommended sold out almost instantly and the 2m version I bought was too short so I went looking for some alternatives and can safely say that this one works extremely well, no issues what so ever since I started using this. The cable is braided and feels well made which is always a plus. Good job, Amazon.
Note that if you're also looking to use Oculus Link it's quite fussy about the USB ports it works with. e.g. It works fine with my motherboard's built-in Intel Z270 based USB 3.0 ports, however it does not work with the ASMedia ASM2142 chipset based USB 3.1 ports it has. If you're using a long (e.g. 5m) extension cable too, make sure you get an active extender that provides the option to plug in a power adapter as you'll likely need to do this for it to work properly/not disconnect I have found.

Amazon Basics. A cable brand you can trust
Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on August 11, 2019Verified Purchase
Let's get the important stuff out of the way first; whenever you buy any type of cable with the Amazon Basics brand you can be 100% confident that the cable you receive will be fully compliant with everything listed in the product description. With Basics you get no falsely advertised speeds, versions or any other spec that is commonly used these days in order to make an inferior product sound better than it is. These cables in particular are fully compliant with USB-IF and guaranteed to deliver the advertised specs.
This is a premium cloth braided cable which in my opinion are far better than rubber cables. Connections are all tight and sturdy which has been an issue with many other Micro USB cables that feel sloppy and loose in the port. Another incredibly small but extremely useful feature of the cable is the small velcro strap which is great if like me you want to adjust the cable to your perfect length and loop the slack to prevent it from going everywhere.
There are a lot of poor quality, falsely advertised cables out there, iv been caught out many times before however, since discovering Amazon's Basic range and seeing the high levels of quality control and compliance, I will never buy another brand of cable again, even including extremely expensive "premium" brands which really offer nothing more premium than the fact they are a trusted, compliant brand.... Exactly the same as the Basics brand but at a tenth of the price.
Several length and colour options are also available which is a nice touch too.
If your looking for this particular type of lead then look no further.
