 Martin and I both recommended these guys as producing some of the best-value dirt-cheap cables around. We both tried out their basic USB cables as I remember, and it took quite a lot more money to better them. Well, JuicEBitz haa grown somewhat since then. They now have a wide range of cables, up to and including guitar leads, chargers, and fibre-optic HDMI leads. They also make Cat6 and Cat7 cables, in runs of up to 30m. Did I mention that they're a British company? Well, they are; they're based in Yorkshire. I only know all of the above because I needed a new charger lead for my iPad Mini, and rather than buy another cheapo generic lead from Amazon, I thought I'd take a look to see if JuicEBitz made them, and they do. It arrived today and the first thing I noticed was the weight of the package. It's quite a hefty lead, and as well put together as I was expecting, all for the princely sum of £7.49 for a 2m cable via eBay. If you want everyday cables, but not the cheap Chinese generic efforts with all the heft of a piece of damp cotton, I heartily recommend these guys. They've even got an app, according to the website. One last thing, many of their cables come in a variety of colours, which can be handy if you've got two or three attached to the same multi-outlet charger for instance. Highly recommended, and well worth the extra couple of quid. This latest purchase has pretty much decided that I will never buy another generic cable. www.juicebitz.co.uk/ |

Did I mention that they're a British company? Now that I did not know! Otherwise, highly recommended. |

In fact, you've just reminded me that I need a longer charging cable for my phone in the bedroom. Ordered!  |

I forgot to mention, they do a decent variety of 90o (right-angled) plugs too, which can come in handy sometimes.

Checking out the 2 cables I need I find the Oppo Android phone takes one size the Lenovo M10 takes slightly smaller
They both seem to be sold as USB C
What am I missing ?
Will also grab one or two for the boss as she goes through cables at a pace for Apple phone and iPad

Oppo is definitely USB-C. Are you sure the Lenovo isn't micro USB? Apple uses Lightning except for the very latest phones that are USB-C.

That is an actionable defamatory slandering libelation, sirrah, in writing. You will be hearing from the woman who solicits for me. |

I received my 2m USB-C charging cable, lovely build quality as usual and supports SuperVOOC high-speed charging. Nice.
