Magtame Magtame USB-C to USB-C Flat 240W Magnetic Charging Cable (1.5m, 5A)
Product description
The essentials
If you’re fed up with a USB-C cable that tangles in your bag, you’ll probably like the premise behind the Magtame flat magnetic design. It’s a USB-C to USB-C cable aimed at fast charging (the listing talks about up to 240W and 5A/48V), with an E-marker chip for current/voltage adjustment. It also includes a magnetic self-winding idea to keep your cable more organised when you’re on the move.
That said, the headline charging performance and “up to” claims are the sort of figures that depend heavily on the charger and the device’s support. So it can be a smart pick, but it’s not a magic wand if your power brick (or the device) can’t actually use those higher wattages.
What it’s designed to do
On paper, this cable ticks three practical boxes: charging speed, safer/managed charging, and reduced cable clutter.
A concrete example: imagine heading out with your laptop and phone. You plug the magnetic cable in at your desk, then when you pack away, the flat cable design plus magnetic self-winding approach is meant to help it coil neatly rather than becoming a knotty mess. In everyday use, it’s the difference between “I’ll sort this later” and grabbing a cable that behaves.
Also included in the concept is a “newest E-marker chip” that adjusts current/voltage, aims to keep charging stable, and stops charging when full to help reduce overcharging and battery stress.
Charging and data: what to expect
The listing positions this as a fast-charging cable: it’s described as a 5A Type C cable with up to 240W. It also mentions that it can handle a range of power levels (240/200/170/140/100/60/65W/30W/18W) for USB-C devices.
For files, the cable is said to support data transfer speeds of up to 480Mbps.
One important limitation to be aware of: video output is not supported. If your goal is a single-cable setup for displays (rather than charging and data syncing), this is likely not the right type of cable.
Where the magnetic self-winding helps (and where it might not)
The “magnetic self-winding design” is the standout convenience feature. If you regularly throw cables into a drawer or backpack, reducing tangles is genuinely useful, and a flatter cable profile can be easier to store.
However, it may not suit everyone. If you prefer thicker, more rigid cables that stand up straight on a desk, a flat design can feel different. And magnetic coiling is a convenience feature, but it won’t replace good storage habits entirely—especially if the cable is repeatedly bent or strained.
The cable’s safety/management angle
The listing credits an E-marker chip that intelligently adjusts current/voltage and aims to maintain a lower temperature, plus charging cut-off when full.
That’s a meaningful detail because it points to the cable doing more than “just conduct power”. Still, it’s worth keeping expectations grounded: real-world charging speed will follow the limits of your charger and device. The cable can only deliver what the whole charging chain supports.

Who it’s for, and who should skip it
It makes sense if you want a USB-C cable for daily charging and occasional data transfer, and you specifically value a tidy, less-tangle approach.
It may not suit you if you need video output over USB-C, or if you’re chasing guaranteed top-end wattage. In those cases, you’d be better off focusing on the charger/device combination that can actually use the higher power levels, and choosing the right cable category for display needs.
Is it worth it?
Worth considering if you’re buying a practical USB-C cable that aims to combine fast charging (up to 240W/5A as claimed), E-marker based charging management, and magnetic self-winding convenience. It’s the kind of cable that can quietly improve day-to-day storage and reduce cable clutter.
Better avoided if your priority is video output, or if you’re expecting the cable alone to unlock extreme charging speeds regardless of what charger/device you use.
Finally, check that the devices you’re using support the charging speeds you want—because the “up to” performance figures only matter when the rest of your setup can match them.
Quick FAQs
Does it support video output?
No, the listing states that video output is not supported.
Will it charge at the full 240W?
It’s described as up to 240W and supports multiple power levels, but real charging depends on what your phone/laptop and charger can deliver.
Is data transfer supported?
Yes. The listing says data transfer speeds of up to 480Mbps.
How long is the cable?
The cable length is listed as 1.5m.
Will it help with cable tangles?
The magnetic self-winding design is intended to reduce clutter and tangles, which should help if you regularly pack cables away.
