    I don't even remember buying this. I would say it's 1 star and poor quality because it says best buy essential which I assume means Best Buy brand which sounds like a recipe for disaster

    I purchased this cable so that I could transfer pictures from the phone to my computer. I tried both the 5' and 9' cables and neither allowed me to transfer the pictures. Very disappointed. I'll be returning both tomorrow. I'm using a Samsung Galaxy A32 5G.
