Buying Guide: Phone Charging Cables

Connector Types
USB-C to USB-C cables suit phones and devices with USB-C ports at both ends. USB-A to USB-C cables connect a standard USB-A port on a charger or computer to a USB-C port. Lightning to USB-C cables are made for devices with a Lightning port on one end and USB-C on the other.

Length and Color
Most Beats cables are 5 ft long, and the woven USB-A and Lightning options are 8 in for short runs. Colors include black, gray, blue and red. Check the length you need before ordering, and choose a two-pack if you want a spare.

Woven Design
Several Beats cables, including the USB-C to USB-C and USB-A to USB-C styles, use a tangle-free woven design meant to reduce tangles and kinks. Match the connector on your phone and your charger before you buy, and check your device manual if you are unsure which port it uses.
