I’m in the process of replacing my entire cable line up to be entirely USB-C & I am interested in perhaps getting something like volta spark cables. Has anyone tried these before?

    In my experience the magnetic chargers are okay for low draw devices and not great for any type of data transfer.

    Most of the magnetic cables I have around are used with legacy USB micro and lightning devices at this point. It’s nice not to have to keep track of multiple types of chargers for less commonly used devices. When I tried to use them with more USB I ended up losing a lot of tips because I would get frustrated at the lack of data transfer or slow speeds and take them off.

      I actually rarely transfer data via USB-C ~ most of my usage is charging. But if the charging speed is slowed, that would be a dealbreaker for me.
