Safe USB-C Compliant Cables/adapters for Samsung Galaxy Note 7

[jisddwqs]

Not all usb-c cables are created the same. Benson Leung at Google has reviewed numerous cables, and there are quite a few non-compliant cables. These cables can result in weird, or even dangerous behavior.

The USB C Adapter I bought from Tronsmart:https://www.amazon.com/dp/B018S827GU?tag=hawk-future-20&ascsubtag=UUacUvbUpU5296995
The C TO A Cable I bought from iOrange:https://www.amazon.com/dp/B010VFFU1...ag=hawk-future-20&ascsubtag=UUacUvbUpU5296995

If you don't want to risk anything make sure you always use the compliant cables/adapters

Or to be even safer, buy an OEM cable.

If Benson says one is safe then it's safe. He knows his stuff .

Any cable recommended by Benson should be fine.

So where can I see a list of the non compliant cables

I have Apple laptop that uses USB-C and I would feel safe with one recommended as supporting MacBook etc that relies on one. Anker 60W 5-port with USB-C

Assuming Samsung is using a compliant cable on their non compliant port.

Does this phone have USB c fast charging?

Technically USB C doesn't have true Quickcharge capability. Samsung and Qualcomm break from Spec and allow quickcharging.

So I got my extra cable from spigen today with a case. Which single or double car charger should I get?

I can still plug my wife's iPhone 5s into the new car charger if we get a double right? This C stuff is all new to me.

And I can use the new cable to plug into my hp laptop? Thanks ahead

And will the first one charge my wife's iPhone? I'm guessing just the note 7 needs a c type and not the iPhone obviously?

Just didn't want to get a usb-c charger for the car and she plug her regular iPhone cable into it and mess anything up. Looks like I'm behind on research lol

There's a fast wireless car charger on Amazon that's pretty cool. Doesn't charge fast when the screen is on though. Saves wear on your usb port too.

Hi, can someone tell me if this car charger will support Quick Charge? Or can recommend another device similar like this one that is small?

It does support quick charge 2.0 and 3.0. It quick charges my Note 5 quickly now (via fast-charge). I think there might still be some uncertainty with the Note 7 , USB C, and various chargers in relation to charging speeds though.
