Sony licensed cable made by Power A
||Posted .Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.First up I too thought this USB charger cable for PlayStation 4 was made by Sony. It isn't but if you ignore the misleading title description & read further down you see the item is an Officially Licensed Sony product. Also the pictures online are from an earlier Power A model that's probably been discontinued. The older model looked better. What you will receive is a pretty basic black 6.5" USB charging cable in a cheap blue box. There are No Gold Connectors so right away I was let down. The older model also seemed to have an added sleeve on one side of the cable which is gone now too. Overall I decided to return these. As an aside to add insult to injury I had ordered two of these on a Tuesday for $9.99 ea. only to see them go on sale a day later for less. So not only did I not get a Sony cable but I got a cheaper version for full price lol. Anyway I'm posting New Pictures of the item you will receive if ordering these PS4 charger cables. Enjoy!

This is a PowerA cable, not Sony!
||Posted .Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.To be clear, this 1 is for Best Buy, not PowerA. But to some extent Sony. There is a certain type of micro USB required to sync the controller with a ps4 or PC. It's not a standard cable. The last one I bought just didn't work. You can only get an official one with a ps4 system, or so I thought. So when I saw this I was ecstatic. The listing says Sony, I did not think to zoom in on the image to see the small PowerA logo. That image is not even the same box I received (attaching my own image, showing logo at the bottom). That said, this did sync with the ps4 using an older model controller (after hitting the reset button with a paper clip!). And it seems to be more physically stable on the controller connection than the official one. But I will run more tests before buying another... and it won't be from Best Buy.

||Posted .Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.I am handicapped ,75 walk with a cane. Remodeling was a surprise. the young man greeted me provided a seat while he found out what I needed, a replacement cover for my 8+ I phone and a new cord for my speaker. He did both, while I could be seated. I was treated with great courtesy in a timely manner. There were enough staff present to serve customers.

Right Product for Charging Wireless Headphones
||Posted .Owned for 1 month when reviewed.My daughter needed a charging cable for her Bose headphones while on vacation. We found a Best Buy store and we’re helped by a knowledgeable salesperson. The cable works and the long length gives her more charging flexibility.

Pretty good, wish ends were more durable
||Posted .Overall this is a good USB to Micro USB cable. In fact, it is better than the bargain cables you can find online due to the design of the Micro USB end. All cables have to fit snugly to prevent the end from just falling out. Cheap cables use raised bumps that aren't high enough or are quickly pressed flat enough that they fall right out. Good cables, like this one, use tiny barbs with a spring that latch on much more securely. This alone gets the cable 4 stars. Pricing isn't great, but I'm willing to pay $5.-$10. dollars more for the better quality ends and the convenience of being able to pick it up at a store immediately rather than wait 2 or more days for it to arrive. The problem is that the end itself isn't very sturdy. Using it for it's intended purpose- that is to say charging a PS4 controller- means that if you want to play more than a few hours, you have to leave it plugged in to keep the controller charged. It plugs in the front of the controller & sticks straight out, so if there's ANY amount of stress the end will bend. Sit on the cable or get it caught on the chair? Don't pull normally or you'll break the end. At best the barbs no longer stick out so the cable falls out easily like other cables, at worst contacts in the cable end itself are broken meaning an intermittent or worse no connection. It is a problem with this particular cable? or Micro USB cables in general? It seems to be the latter, unfortunately, but this the best middle ground I've found to date- above average quality, yet inexpensive to replace on a regular basis.

Durable
||Posted .Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.Stand’s the test of. I’m constantly taking the cord away as punishment for when he misbehaves. It’s held up through all the unplugging and plugging back in.
