## Description

Review: Better than I expected - I know what you all think when you see "desertcartBasics". Cheap, simple, boring, low-quality, temporary solutions. Sometimes, that might be right, but definitely not this time! These cables are very nicely designed. The braiding is high quality nylon and doesn't feel like it will come off any time soon. The micro USB end of the cable gets securely held in my device with the two prongs on the bottom of the connector, unlike some cables which either don't have them, or they are very low quality. These cables are nice and long, meaning I can have them plugged in while using my phone in bed or at my desk. It's also helpful when I have my power bank in my bag and want to charge my phone at the same time. These cables seem to hold up against everything I throw at them, including QC3.0 or Quick Charge 3.0 which some cheaper cables don't support. I would genuinely recommend these to anyone looking for a cheap set of cables which are great quality.
Review: Great price, great quality! - A great quality cable. I bought this as a charging cable for a micro PC (PC on a stick) which requires 5v 2.1a to run and this cable has worked flawlessly with a 12w power adapter. For some reason I always have a preconceived idea about brands such as desertcart Basics, Tesco Value, Asda Smart Price etc - it feels like because the cost is low, that the quality will be bad. This is not the case with any of the desertcart Basic products I have tried - all have been of a similar quality and performed as well as named brand products. In fact, I’d rate their cables as better than the one that ship with mobile phones. Overall, the cable feels very durable, is working well and was an absolutely bargain price - very happy with this purchase!
