    I have been using these wires for many years. The most important thing is that it is very convenient to charge different devices with the same cord. Now it doesn’t matter if it’s Apple, Android or what else. Protects the charging port from destruction. It is also convenient for people who do not see well enough. And It's also cool that they glow in the dark

      Yes exactly! From the cable running to my game seat I can charge my PS5 controller, PS4 controller, Sense controllers for the PSVR2, my phone, and more! Super handy, and no wear and tear on the items sockets either! Love them! 🙂

    Any recommendations for a set or brand that's actually rapid charging? I've tried like 4 different brands, 2 of which said "fast charging". I used the rapid charging bases that plug into the wall, and with the regular chargers, it worked fine. When i used the magnetic charging cables, they were only as fast as a non-rapid charger.
    You know of one that is actually the high-speed charging that's also magnetic? The magnetic charging cords are a game changer. I just need them in the rapid charging speeds! The magnetic port had saved all my devices that still use the old micro-usb, and with having 3 little kids, it saved some ipads from taking a tumble during charging. Amazing stuff!

      Statik are the ones you are after, just make sure they ARE Statik cables and not just using the name in the description. They are a lot more expensive than the ones in the video, but are very very good! 😀 And yes I love the 'quick release' of these too in case of being snagged or pulled!

    The only bad thing with these cords is that they don’t follow any actual safety protocols that normal usb cables follow. This means any warranty for the device is void when you start using them. And because they don’t follow the same industry standards it can end up frying the device and in extreme cases it could even cause a fire (I haven’t looked up any examples of this but saw other people saying these were causing fires).
    So for cheaper replaceable items, these work great. But they aren’t worth the risk for more expensive or irreplaceable items. And it’s probably worth spending a bit more to prevent a fire due to super cheap/poor cables

    • @honestrob
      @honestrob  4 місяці тому +3

      I've seen devices get damaged by 'official' USB cables too, including fires, and indeed had an expensive item get fried by a 'industry standard' USB cable before so not sure the safety element is any different. And if on the slim chance the magnetic cable did cause damage to something under warranty, the vast majority of people are not going to mention the charge cable type if indeed that was relevant. I know what you mean though regarding the super cheap cables and expensive items. I would not charge a £1000 item using a £1 cable from Temu for example! 🙂

    • @roaransky7163
      @roaransky7163 4 місяці тому +1

      That’s totally fair. The ironic thing is sometimes that Temu cable is the exact same quality as the cheaper cables on Amazon. I guess the most important thing is to be aware and supervise new cables just in case!
      I’m still going to use these cables for kids items since then they can charge them themselves. It’s rather perfect for it! And it’s not like the cables will do anymore damage than the kids hahaha

    Neat idea. Does it charge just as fast or is it slower? Does the magnet affect hte electronics?

    • @honestrob
      @honestrob  4 місяці тому +3

      The charge time for the cheap ones I got in the video was the same as when plugged into the device/console, but will depend on which ones you get, make sure you get the faster charging ones. No effect from the magnet so far that isn't any different from the standard cable 🙂
