    The price is cheap for a reason. This cable is thick and stiff and doesn’t have nice feel compared to other usb-c cables I bought.

    The cable no longer stays plugged in and wobbles back and forth when barely touched. Problematic when I'm using it to connect my phone to my car and run Android Auto. I thought my phone was broken so I took it to a repair shop. They said it was fine and to try a different cable. Sure enough, the new cable was fine.

    Does not work well on my phone; the 'connector' that attaches to the phone keeps sliding off; so you will always need to be near the phone while it is recharging so you can keep the cord securely attached. Otherwise it stops recharging.
