UGREEN 65908 USB-C to USB-C Cable, 240W PD 3.1, 2m

With support for up to 240W PD 3.1 charging, this UGREEN USB-C cable can serve high-power laptops as well as phones and tablets. Its 2m length gives you room to use a device while it charges. It also supports data transfer at up to 480Mbps, making it useful for everyday file syncing.

What stands out

The cable supports up to 48V/5A and 240W peak power, with backward compatibility for 140W and 100W charging. That makes it a practical choice if you want one USB-C to USB-C cable for a mix of compatible devices, rather than keeping separate cables for lower- and higher-power charging. The device and USB-C charger still need to support the charging level you want to use.

A reinforced nylon-braided jacket and aluminium-alloy connector heads are designed for regular handling. The cable has been tested for more than 30,000 bends and 20,000 plug-and-unplug cycles, while its flexible, tangle-resistant design helps keep it manageable in a bag or at a desk. A built-in E-Marker chip negotiates voltage and current with the connected device, with protection against over-current, over-voltage, overheating and short circuits.

Key points

At 2m long, the cable gives you flexibility to charge a laptop or mobile phone while continuing to use it nearby. It is listed as compatible with USB-C devices including MacBook Pro and Air, iPad Pro and Air, iPhone 16 and 17 models, Galaxy phones, Pixel phones and selected laptops from HP, Dell and Lenovo. It can also be used for data transfer between USB-C devices, at up to 480Mbps.

Buyers often praise its charging speed, length and use with Mac Air and iPhone devices. Feedback on the physical connection is mixed, so make sure the connectors are seated securely when connecting your devices. For a cable focused on charging and file syncing, the combination of high power support, a useful 2m reach and a braided exterior is the main draw.

Getting the most from it

For faster charging, pair the cable with a USB-C PD charger and a device that support the power level you need. The cable can also be used with devices supporting 140W or 100W charging. For file transfers, connect compatible USB-C devices and allow for its USB 2.0 transfer rate of up to 480Mbps. It does not support video output, so it is intended for charging and data rather than sending a display signal to a monitor.
