5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect, but make sure that THIS is what you need, June 25, 2009

Amazon Verified Purchase

I needed one of these to connect one new camera to the computer.

On this specific cable, everything is done right, including the price. It is USB 2.0 certified, meaning that it supports data transfer rates of up to 480Mbps and, if your device accepts a Micro-B plug, this is the cable to get. Maybe the 2-meter length (6+ ft.) is a little bit too much but it does not bother me a lot and there may come a time when a cable this long may come in handy.

I am awarding this item 5 stars for price, quality and, especially, for the very good presentation on Amazon's page.

Notes:

Anyone in the market for a USB cable should be very careful because there are at least 6 kinds of USB connectors. If you are buying a cable that connects 'something' to your computer or laptop, the computer end of the cable will always be a USB-A or 'Type A' connector. At the other end, you may have a USB-B/Type B - a nearly square shaped connector used mostly to deliver power to a device but this is rare. Most likely, you will have a Mini-B or a Micro-B. The difference between the 2 is that the Micro-B is half as thick while the width is the same - Mini-B is 3x7mm while Micro-B is 1.5x7mm.

If your device (phone, PDA, camera) is a 'new' one and it's using USB, chances are that they will need a Micro-B connector because the industry seems to be adopting the 'Micro' form factor as its standard. If the above sounds simple, you should keep in mind that some devices require Mini-AB or Micro-AB connectors, also known as USB OTG (OnTheGo) devices.

My advice: before ordering any cable, make sure that you clearly understand what type of cable you need. This Amazon listing and most Cables Unlimited listings are most helpful because the Amazon page gives you a visual of what the connectors look like. Whenever in doubt, do some more research.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not for RAZR2, December 3, 2007

By	R. B. Farley "rb-f" (Ohio) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Bought this to work with a Motorola RAZR2 phone, but it won't connect to it. I compared it to another cable that does work and while the pinout is the same, the contacts on the micro usb side of this cable don't extend as close to the edge of the connector as they do on the other cable that works. It isn't a very big difference, but it's apparently enough to keep this cable from working. May work for other devices, but it doesn't seem to be useful for a RAZR2.

4.0 out of 5 stars It works with the ENV2, April 23, 2009

By	ski44 - See all my reviews

I purchased this with the sole purpose of charging an LG ENV2, and it does that perfectly. It also allows you to sync data or music between the phone and your pc. Cable quality seems fine, no problems.
