I may be stupid.

But I have no idea how people are comparing "better" or "worse" cables. I always just assumed they were just cables.

Edit: for people downvoting me, I'm not saying they are just cables, I'm just saying I don't know what the difference is, and asking for an explanation. Please calm down.

There are different dimensions for this, balance of importance differs between users and application:

  • data transfer rate
  • power transfer rate
  • durability
  • reusability with other products
  • length
  • price
  • someone made it white and engraved a pictogram of an incomplete apple on it

Don't worry, apple is still limiting data transfer to usb2 protocols except on the pro models

Oh I always expect them to find a loop hole to sell their ridiculously expensive peripherals. My best bet is a chip that forces you to use an apple usb c cable.
