Native Union Anchor Cable 240W – 10ft Reinforced Braided USB-C to USB-C Power Delivery 3.1 Charging Cable with Weighted Knot – For iPhone 16, 16 Pro Max, MacBook Pro 14"/16" M4, Air 15" M3 (Cosmos)

This Native Union Anchor Cable is hands down the best charging cable I’ve ever used. It’s incredibly well-designed, with a premium braided build that feels super strong yet flexible. Unlike cheap cables that fray over time, this one is built to last.The weighted anchor is a game-changer—it slides along the cable, so you can position it exactly where you need it, keeping your setup neat and preventing the cable from falling off your desk or bedside table.Looks-wise, it’s sleek and modern, with a dark colour that won’t stain or discolour like standard white cables. Plus, since it’s USB-C, it works with everything—phones, tablets, laptops, and even the newest Alexa devices.If you’re tired of flimsy, short-lived cables, this is 100% worth the investment. Durable, stylish, and super practical - highly recommend!

Does the job while looking slick. Expensive but you get what you pay for.

This is a really nice cable. I've been using it regularly to charge my phone (Pixel 7 Pro), an iPad Pro and a MacBook Pro M1. It has worked well in all cases, and hasn't shown any sign of heating up even under high loads (up to 100W).The ball adds a fair amount of weight to the cable. It can be moved up and down the cable so you can finely tune the centre of mass of the cable, but honestly I'm not sure why you'd need to. Places where I can see it being useful is if you're charging a light-weight device, where the mass of the cable might usually drag the device off the table, or maybe to stop the end of the cable falling off the table when its not plugged in.The construction of the cable itself is good; Connectors click into devices securely, the braid on the cable is nice quality, and the braid on the ball matches that of the cable, and is made to look like the cable is wound into a ball.Over all, it's a good cable, I use it regularly, but mainly for non-portable use-cases. That is, I always have this in the same place at home -- I don't throw it in my laptop bag to use on the move, due to the extra weight and the space taken by the ball.

This USB-C cable is very well made and does everything you want it to.It supports PD up to 240W which is far more than most devices can accept. The cable is well-made with a braided finish which looks very nice and stops it from getting tangled. It also gives it some more strength and rigidity.The main unique feature is the 'knot' on the cable. This is just a ball of rope in the same colour as the cable however it is independent of the cable and fitted onto it with a plastic ring which allows it to slide up and down the cable. This makes it look like the cable is tied into a ball however it isn't. The purpose of this is that the 'knot' is quite heavy which means it will sit on the table and not slide down the back like cables sometimes do. For this purpose, it works pretty well.Overall, this is a great cable and I would highly recommend it.

This cable is very good to look at visually and quality wise it screams premium. The braiding on the cable is mesmerising to look at.The focus of this cable is to to provide power to large devices and is rated at 240W PD. This is over twice as much as any cable I currently have. It's a long cable which provides a lot of freedom in terms of how far you can sit from the mains charger. I find that 2m cables are not long enough to say sit on a bed with your laptop. This cable provides that extra freedom especially is you are coming from a charger plugged into the wall.This cable has a weighted ball the cable runs through and the position of this ball can be moved. Its great if you say leave you charging cable on a desk. It stops the cable from slipping down to the floor.Overall a really good cable to carry around for charging a laptop. It has a lifetime warranty so you will never need to worry about in breaking.

I've been getting increasingly fed up of the sofa charging cable falling from the armrest or behind the sofa, so far I've just assumed it was something I was going to have to forever accept until this cable came along.The cable is very well made and has considerable thickness to it (I imagine to support 240W), the braiding is good quality and the connectors fit firmly into my charger and devices. The box was surprisingly nice too which you don't normally see with cables! I've had no issues using it to charge my Samsung S22+ with rapid charging or my 16" MBP, both get the maximum charging speed possible. The anchor is the main feature here though and it works surprisingly well, keeping the cable where I left it on the armrest without issue, I don't think I'd need the feature on 90% of my charging cables but it's definitely useful when you do need it! The anchor "knot" is freely movable up and down the cable too.Whilst there's no denying the quality the current retail price of thirty quid it's pretty steep... it's about 3 times the cost of my already good 100W braided cable from another well known manufacturer. This does support a bit of a higher wattage and does come with the cool anchor feature but I'm not sure I'd really pay 3 times the cost for it.

I like Native Union products despite a few quality issues I've had with some of their items in the past.This cable is exactly what you would expect from NU. It has a good 240W rating meaning it can support charging high power devices like laptops. The cable is braided in a series of nice colours and designs such as the zebra snazzy pattern. It has a lovely 'ball' of interconnected cables with a weight inside to ensure it stays on your desk when not in use. And has a very secure and strong plastic housing where the connector is.The box is also of a high quality which seems un-necessary but helpful if you may plan on selling this in the future.
