USB-C Wall Chargers



I've been looking and looking for a good and not-too-expensive USB-C wall charger and I'm having trouble finding one. On Amazon there appears to be a option that looks good but expensive (imho) and then there's a cheap ~ option that seems to have bad reviews.

I know there are a ton of USB-A -> USB-C cables & adapters but I also want some native USB-C options since it can power things 50% faster than what USB-A -> USB-C will do. I also know there are several decent-looking USB-C car chargers

Has anybody found any good USB-C wall chargers that aren't too expensive? Or are we stuck waiting for the likes of Anker, Choetech, and others to come out with some good options?

What USB-C USB-A cable are you getting?



Since we won't be getting it in the box, and I don't have a USB-C port on my laptop, I'll def. need to get one.

I thought of just getting the Google Store one, but .00 seemed a bit high

Then I thought of getting the OnePlus Cable one since it's cheaper, has some nice design features (flat, cable organizer, etc.), but then I realized it's only USB 2.0 spec and I kinda want to future proof the cable.

I figured the Spigen Cable would be a safe bet since it's a known brand, 3.0 spec, and discounted on their eBay store, but it's backordered til end of November!

Finally, I found this "generic" one on Amazon which I think I'll get since it has a bunch of reviews and is in stock before the N5X comes in.

Has anyone else started shopping for their USB-C <-> USB-A cable? Any other suggestions to consider?



Anyone else a ZNAPS USB-C connector backer?



I have a feeling I might be one of the few that actually went with this option, but when I backed them, I ended up switching to the USB-C connector they added. Figured I would go for it based off all the Nexus/USB-C rumors, future-proof it. I'm just a little bummed I will have to wait till March at the earliest for it =(.

Vinsic 3A USB-C Car Charger



Got this in tonight, thought I'd share some pics. All of the paperwork that came with it is pretty much either how to return stuff you don't like or how to post a review on Amazon lol. The pictures attached show you all the information on the actual charger. I obviously don't have anything that can use the Type C for it yet but I will charge my lg g3 with a regular micro USB tomorrow. If anyone knows of a way for me to do some testing and tells me how I'm more than willing to do it.










Any 3m Length High Quality Fast Charging USB-C Cable?



Just as the title says....I am looking for 3m Length High Quality Fast Charging USB-C Cable? I have found a few shorter ones but I really need a few that are 3m.
