One of the most convenient USB-C cables around is back down to its lowest price ever, which we last saw in early March. Anker’s 2-in-1, braided USB-C cable that can charge two devices from one power source is down to $17.99 for the four-foot version at Amazon (it normally sells between $23 and $25.99). The cable also comes in a six-foot option that’s going for $19.99. Both sizes come in black or white.
So long as you have a power brick or portable battery that supports 140W charging (such as this Ugreen model), Anker’s cable supports that speed when a single cable head is plugged in. This makes it fast enough to quickly charge some laptops, including some 16-inch MacBook Pro models, not to mention other, less power-hungry gadgets. In terms of how the cable decides how much juice each device gets with different power bricks and batteries, Anker has a chart here that breaks it down.
