Score this 2-pack of 100W USB-C cables for just $8 right now
Is there such a thing as having too many charging cables? I don’t think so! In fact, given how fast today’s power banks and charging plugs have gotten, it’s probably time to upgrade your cables. And now’s a great time to do it because these Ugreen USB-C cables are on sale at Amazon. Normally priced at $12, this two-pack is now down to just $8 — on par with a single dolled-up Starbucks drink. These are USB-C-to-USB-C cables, each supporting 100W of power throughput, so you’ll be able to charge up your phone, laptop, and other devices in the blink of an eye. (Assuming you have an equally fast power bank or wall plug.) But these cables are great for data transfers, too. They’re capable of up to 480Mbps speeds, which is fast enough to transfer 1GB in under a minute. And they’re each 3.3 feet long, ideal for connecting devices on your workstation or plugging in your phone while in bed. The braided nylon sleeve keeps them resistant to wear and tear, so you can expect longer-than-typical lifespans out of these. If your devices aren’t charging quickly or if your files aren’t transferring fast enough, the bottleneck might be your cables. This is a great price for two fast-charging USB-C cables, so snatch this deal while you still can. (Need even longer cables? The 6.6-foot variant and 10-foot variant are also on sale, albeit for a slightly lesser discount.) Two fast-charging USB-C cables for just $8? That's a great dealBuy now at Amazon
