Description

The Anker Zolo C to C 1.5 m braided cable from Anker is a no-nonsense, high-power USB-C cable built to handle the new PD 3.1 “240 W” tier. It prioritizes raw charging headroom, ruggedness, and a low-profile connector that fits with modern devices and cases. If you want a single cable that can charge a full-power laptop and smaller devices without swapping cords, this is one of the most practical choices (according to Rajshahi Tech).

Build quality & durability of Anker Zolo C to C Cable:

• Materials: braided nylon outer, reinforced inner conductors, and metal/aluminum connector shells. Anker advertises reinforced cores and measures to reduce wear at stress points. Several retailer pages and independent coverage report bend-life ratings in the thousands (Anker lists >10,000 bends on some Zolo variants and other listings reference higher numbers depending on the model/length). That matches the feel — it’s noticeably robust.

• Remarks: the braid makes it resist tangling and surface grime better than plain rubber cables. Over time the stiffness will relax and become more pliable; initially it’s a bit firmer than ultra-soft competition.

Performance— charging:

• Power: this cable supports USB Power Delivery (PD) 3.1 up to 240 W (the revised PD 3.1 spec that enables higher voltages). That means, with an appropriate 240 W or high-wattage PD 3.1 charger. It can carry full power for high-end laptops that need ~140–240 W. Practically, that makes the cable future-proof for the fastest USB-C laptops and most PD devices.

• Real-world claims: Anker and partners quote examples such as charging a 16-inch MacBook Pro (M3) to ~50% in ~25 minutes when paired with a matching high-wattage charger — a marketing example that shows the cable is meant for big power delivery, not just phone trickle charging. Actual times will depend on charger, device firmware and thermal limits.

• Safety: using a PD 3.1 cable only matters when paired with a PD 3.1 capable charger and a device that accepts higher voltage/current. If you plug it into a low-power charger it will simply negotiate lower power. There’s no downside beyond buying more capability than you immediately need. Always pair with reputable PD chargers.

Performance — data & video:

• Data: this Zolo cable is USB-2.0 data rated (up to ~480 Mbps) — good for syncing and backups but not a high-speed data cable for large file transfers. Several listings and reviews confirm the 480 Mbps figure. If you need USB-3.x or DisplayPort Alt Mode for external displays. This braided Zolo model does not provide those features; it’s primarily a power-focused PD 3.1 cable.

Anker Zolo C to C Cable Practical points:

• Length: 1.5 m (≈5 ft) is a versatile mid length — long enough for desk use, short enough for bag carry.

• Connector fit: slim connector heads sit well with phone cases. Because the cable is slightly thicker overall. Expect a comfortable in-hand feel and less accidental bending at the plug than thin cables.

• Colors/options: Anker/Zolo family has several finishes — the braided surface gives a premium look compared with plain plastic cables.
