I'm learning how to differentiate between a problem that originates with the vendor and a problem that appears to me to originate from how Amazon places ads on its website and how vendors get orders to fill them.

This website advertises a USB 20-pin Samsung Data Cable, Model# Model #APCBS10UBE. It says that it transfers data between your Samsung mobile phone and your PC AND charges your phone at the same time.

It gives the user multiple vendors to choose from who will then fill the order.

Unfortunately, the order the vendor receives from Amazon is for a Model # APCBS10BBE. I believe this to be true because when I used Amazon's site to generate a complaint to the vendor, Amazon sent out my complaint to the vendor giving the details of my order. The vendor then forwarded Amazon's email to me in their reply. In the email trail you can see that the model number in the Amazon generated email doesn't match the ad.

The only difference is that this 20-pin Samsung cable DOES NOT charge your phone. I verified this information on Samsung's website and through other sites selling this model cable.

Now I wanted the cable for data and I have a charger to charge my phone. So I'm happy.

But if it is crucial that this cable charge your Samsung phone, then know that you may not get the model advertised.

This model will both upload and download from computer and will also charge from computer. So be vigilant because there is the lesser grade model that won't charge out there.

The cable worked perfectly. I can now download things from my computer to my phone.

I gave it three stars b/c it was cheap and shipped pretty quickly. The cord I received charges the phone fine, but my intent was to be able to copy the contacts file off the phone as the software on the phone will not allow me to move the contacts to the micro-SD card to transfer them. So, I thought a data cable would solve the problem. Windows found a Samsung driver for the phone, to use it as a modem. However, I cannot find the phone in "my computer" or using windows explorer so that I could browse the files and copy them. I have a Samsung T401G I'm using with Net10. Net10 is a good value for me for talking/texting, but picture messages or any data??? No way. Data speeds are MUCH SLOWER than a slow dial-up connection. I wish I could find a driver to allow me to use this nice cord to transfer files....

As always amazon was prompt and accurate with there service. Their prices as always beat all others. Amazon you rock.

This samsung data cable arrived quickly and has done what it is intended to do. The price was great.

Product was perfect, arrived quickly with no glitches. Would order from them again! Saved quite a bit compared to the Name Brand stores!

The Samsung Data Cable worked as expected. Was able to transfer data from phone to Laptop and also charges the phone when connected to laptop/pc.

nothing complicated, just a few simple data cables. looks like OEM. transfer data from computer no problem. charges phone also. thanks!

I ordered 2 of these because we had just bought 2 of the straight talk phones and we needed the data cables. The price was right, they came very quickly and the cables do exactly what they are supposed to. Very pleased
