The only thing better than a durable, braided USB-C cable is one that can charge two devices at once. And that’s exactly what it is Anker’s 2-in-1 USB-C Cable does, and it’s $4 off its normal price of $25.99 if you’re an Amazon Prime member. It’ll let you charge a duo of devices with varying power needs, from your phone and Steam Deck to your wireless earbuds, controllers, tablets, laptops, and anything else you own that charges through that nearly ubiquitous port. As for me, it’ll be great for charging the electric snot sucker we use on our toddler. (That really exists – parents will know.)
In a world where you can easily find 3-in-1 cables that can charge via Lightning, USB-C, and Micro-USB, I completely understand if you think a dual-port USB-C cable isn’t the newest idea. But what sets Anker’s cable apart is its uncompromising charging speed. The cable can support speeds of up to 140W when plugged into the right wall adapter, meaning it can charge a high-end MacBook Pro at full speed. It can adjust to the required wattage to charge other gaming and non-gaming devices at their fastest possible charging speeds as well.
Whether you need something that supports super-speed charging or not, this Anker cable is a good, future-proof purchase if you’re all about devices that charge via USB-C. I wish it was longer than 4 feet, but that’s a flaw I’m happy to overlook, as this single cable does the job of two.
