How am I supposed to transfer files between my phone and my PC if it doesn't come with a USB cable?

For future reference, how is one supposed to transfer files from the PC to the phone, and vice versa, since the included turbo charger comes without a USB cable? Second, if one decides not to turbo charge, can the phone be charged "normally"?

Download airdroid from the play store. It's what I have used.

I imagine any number of $1 usb cables would do the trick for a file transfer. And yes you can use a normal charger.

I find WiFi file explorer to be the best.

And yes, normal charging works just fine... just slower.

You can transfer files the exact same way you transfered files from your last phone

You can go to any Wal Mart, drugstore, etc and get a micro USB for $5 if do not want to order one.

You should be able to use any existing USB cable you have laying around the house.

Moto X PE 2015 turbo charger

Hi Guys/Gals,
So I rec'd my brand spankin new Moto X yesterday and out of the box are the phone unit, the turbo charger cable, and a couple of guides. See below the picture of the turbo charger. My question: Is this the correct cable? Where's the USB connector on the other end? Looks like it permanent attached to the A/C outlet. Thanks for your help!

That is correct. The turbo charger 25 has a dedicated cable, no USB port.

Thanks. So I guess my next question is how do I access the SD card from my PC, without a USB connection?

Do you have another USB cord laying around that you can connect the phone to the computer? If not, do you have an SD card reader that you can put your micro SD card into and put in the computer? Those would seem like the only options unless your computer has bluetooth capabilities.
