20ft USB C to USB C Cable Black - Extra Long USB Type C for Charging

In this review the 20ft USB C to USB C Cable Black is evaluated as a purpose-built solution for users who need exceptional reach for charging and data syncing. The bottom line: this cable is best for photographers tethering cameras, tablet users on the couch, or anyone needing a long run to a wall charger; its single biggest selling point is the full 20 ft length that removes proximity limits while delivering up to 2.9 Amps for faster charging than typical low-power cords. It is not intended for video display or high-wattage laptop charging.

Key Features

• Extra long reach: The full 20 ft length gives freedom to move devices around a room while charging or transferring files without being tied to a nearby outlet.
• USB Type-C to Type-C: Both ends are USB C which simplifies connections to modern Android phones, iPad Pro, and many cameras without adapters.
• Data syncing: Supports data transfer rates up to 480 Mbps for syncing photos, music, and typical file transfers between devices.
• Decent charging output: Rated to carry up to 2.9 Amps when paired with a suitable wall adapter for respectable charging speed of phones and tablets.
• Broad device compatibility: Works with recent Samsung Galaxy and Note models, Google Pixel phones, iPad Pro, and many camera brands for tethered workflows.

Who It's For

This cable is ideal for photographers who tether Canon, Nikon, Sony, FujiFilm and other supported cameras to a laptop or tablet during shoots, and for users who want to charge or sync devices from a distance such as when a wall outlet is inconvenient. The 20 ft length is particularly useful in studios, classrooms, or living rooms where mobility matters.

Users who need video output or who want to charge high-power laptops should look elsewhere, since this cable does not support video display and is not meant for devices that require USB Power Delivery at much higher wattages. Also, if you require guaranteed high-speed data beyond USB 2.0 speeds, consider a cable rated for faster transfer protocols.
