Amazon Basics Nylon Charging Laptop Reviews Summary

Compatibility with Oculus Quest

Pros:

• "After looking around at all of the options claiming to be Oculus Quest compatible I went with this cable."
• "I bought this to use as an Oculus Link Cable for my Oculus Quest and it has performed as expected."
• "Cable works fine with the Oculus Quest Link but make sure you connect it to the PC's USB 3.0 slot that is located on your GRAPHIC CARD."
• "This cable, where others failed, works well for the Oculus Link."
• "I have tried many cables&adapters&hub combinations to establish an Oculus link between my quest and my laptop."
• "Like some other reviewers have stated, it works great with the Oculus Link on the Quest."
• "This cable worked great for syncing iTunes songs from my iMac (USB-A) with my iPad Pro."
• "I bought this to use with my Oculus Quest 2 to use in link mode and it charges while tethering to my PC really well."

Cons:

• "The Cables works fine for the quest but there is wiggle room when connecting to the quest."
• "It still works great for an extra charging cable but not as a link cable for your quest."
• "I bought this cable for this one reason... but I can not get onto the main Home. Just a black screen with nothing happening."
• "This wire is durable and strong enough that it will not break till eternity."
• "The plastic housing around the USB-C type end is a little obtrusive, only just fits with a silicon gel type protector on my phone."
• "The strain relief on these cables is absolutely horrific - some kind of almost inflexible plastic."
• "Failed to work properly with my VW and Nokia 6.1."
• "Appears sturdy but when "C" connector pushed into phone socket it did not securely engage at all, and fell out."

Quality and Durability

Pros:

• "Seems well made and getting the appropriate transfer rates."
• "Cable is indeed a 3.1, type C to type A, and overall good value for the money."
• "Properly rated, properly built, great cable."
• "I had purchased some other after market charger and it did not work with my phone, it would not fast charge."
• "The wire body is sturdy."
• "I give a five stars to this product on durability it hasn't fail so far and it feels very strong."
• "I have learned that any braided nylon cord made by AmazonBasics are worth their weight in gold."
• "Quality cable and feels like it's worth the money."

Cons:

• "But man is it heavy."
• "Also with how stiff the cable is it makes it kind of hard to wrap up and store."
• "I recived my cable today, and went to plug it in expecting it to work as some others said they've had success with the Link."
• "If you're using this to actually charge something, it's fantastic. If you're using it with Oculus Link on a Quest, it's far too heavy."
• "Failed to work properly with my VW and Nokia 6.1."
• "Bought as liked how long it, it has lasted 17 months and now doest work as the braiding seems to have come away."
• "The thickness of the usb c port, around it the material is so wide it won't fit most standard folio cases."
• "It's very rare that I give a negative review on an Amazon basic product however this particular wire seems to be easily short out in is not as durable as it seems for having braiding."
