"USB cables" are essential when using computers and smartphones. Not only do they differ in connector shape, but they also have different characteristics in terms of charging speed, data transmission speed, etc.
So, this time we will recommend USB cables for smartphone users. We will also explain the types of cables commonly used in daily life and how to choose them, so please use this as a reference.
First, I will explain about Type C cables, which have become mainstream in recent years and are expected to continue to spread rapidly in the future.
Type C
The USB connector of the Type C cable has an oval-shaped terminal, which means that it can be connected without worrying about the orientation. It is installed on Windows PCs, some smartphones, and MacBooks, and is easy to use because it can be wired without having to decide the orientation.
The Type C cable also has a terminal for "Thunderbolt 3", which enables high-speed data transfer.
The MacBook Pro models released after 2016 and the MacBook Air models released in 2018 are also capable of fast charging using Type C.
Of course, it can also be connected to a regular USB Type C, making it more versatile. If you purchase a compatible product, please check carefully.
Type A
Type A cable is the most standard type and is often connected to a computer. This is what many people think of when they think of USB. There are different types with different data transmission speeds, such as 2.0 and 3.0.
Micro USB
Micro USB is used in small devices such as smartphones and digital cameras. The connector is trapezoidal.
The tip of the connector has a tab to prevent it from coming loose. It is mainly used on Android smartphones and tablet devices released several years ago.
As Type C has become more and more popular in recent years, Micro USB has been gradually reduced in popularity, but it is still widely used in many electronic devices.
Lightning
Apple's own standard Lightning connector is used on iOS devices such as the iPhone and iPad. The connector is tightly fitted and, like Type C, can be used on both sides without worrying about the orientation. If you're an Apple user, you may be using it every day.
How to Choose a USB Cable
The most common causes of USB cable failure are broken wires and damaged connectors. Especially for smartphones, cables are often bent over time due to use, which can put stress on the cable and cause external damage or internal breaks. If the cable breaks, not only will data transfer speeds and charging speeds decrease, but it may become completely unusable.
It's a hassle to constantly have to replace cables, so choose a USB cable that is as durable as possible. To use your smartphone or tablet comfortably, we recommend a USB cable that is easy to handle and durable.
The EU will integrate the Type C interface for charging mobile devices in 2024, and NIMASO previously predicted that Apple will completely unify the Lightning interface with Type C , and believes that Type C cables will become indispensable for people in the future.
Unlike ordinary cables, NIMASO's USB Type C cable is made of nylon material with excellent toughness.
In addition, it is highly durable, and even after repeated bending, it does not lose its original mechanical strength or heat resistance, and is stain-resistant and abrasion-resistant. It is also resistant to deformation and maintains stability. If you have pets at home, do your dogs or cats always chew through your cables, making them unusable? Then we recommend you try NIMASO's Type C cable.
NIMASO's USB Type C cable has passed our in-house tests of 5,000 insertions and removals and over 10,000 bendings. The internal wire body is also flexible, so you don't have to worry about damage or breakage due to bending the cable during use, and the life of the cable itself can be extended. You can charge freely anywhere, making it ideal for people who often go out or travel.
The included cable tie withthe NIMASO logo not only prevents cables from getting lost, but also looks good and helps organize the cables. It gives a neat impression, making it suitable for business situations.

When choosing a USB cable, it is important that it is easy to insert and remove, as well as easy to bend and resistant to wear, so that it can be used conveniently. Choose the best USB cable from the many available and enjoy a more comfortable mobile life.
