Best Magnetic Micro USB cable available so far!

ByJae Fernandezon April 23, 2016

Verified Purchase

I have to say that I've tried 3 other brands of Magnetic Cables, and these are by far the best I've tried.
Now, I'm not saying they're perfect, but they are definitely the best I've had my hands on.

I love that it's reversible for both charging AND data. The other ones I've had were either polarized, so you could only put it on one way (trying to put it on the wrong way will have the magnet push the connector away), or the data/Fast Charging would only work in on orientation.

Fast charging actually works! Some of the other ones I tried didn't quite support fast charging. Some supported it the first day, but I think the cable burnt out as it never worked with fast chargers again. You'll know when its fast charging too because the LED lights up normal for the first half a second, then gets brighter a half second later.
Charging speeds are the same as regular Micro USB Cables.

Data transfer speeds are normal USB 2.0 speeds.

One thing I like is the fact that this feels like a quality cable. The braided cord feels solid, but at the same time, its still a bit thinner than most other braided cables I've seen. This can be seen as either good or bad. Some might say its bad because they are not an strong, but to me, I think its good because the cable is much more maneuverable, especially when wrapping it or storing it.

Which brings me to another point. It comes with a cord manager (basically a rubber piece that's attached so you can coil your cable and keep it secured or fold what ever length you don't need and secure that so that you don't have excess cable everywhere).

Another thing I like is the fact that the LED indicator on the connector ONLY LIGHTS UP WHEN ITS CONNECTED TO THE DEVICE! Some cable have their indicator on as soon as the cable is plugged into the wall. This one only lights up would the cable is also connector to the device. Every other cable that had an LED indicator has the indicator burn out the first day when connected to a Fast Adaptive Charger. This thing handles it all!
Another convenient aspect of the magnetic tip is that it helps me keep my cords from being everywhere. In my care, I use a Mountek Magnetic Phone/Tablet mount. What nice is, when I leave my car, or when my devices aren't being charged, I just let the tips of the cables (I use 2 in my car) attach to the back of the mount. This prevents my cables from hanging in random places, where they can potentially get stuck somewhere, stepped on, or damaged. I'll always know where the cable ends are!

I only have it 4 stars for one reason... the strength of the magnet. I would have liked to see a stronger magnet. While the magnet holds it on relatively well, its a bit too easy to take off. I have an Otterbox case on my Galaxy Tab Pro 8.4. There is a rubber piece that covered that charging port. The pressure that the rubber flap applies to the cable connector is enough to push the cable off the magnetic tip. I had to cut a slit about 2/3 of the way through the hinge of the flap in order to decrease the pressure off of the cable enough to allow the cable to stay connected. Even then, I still have to be careful.

But other than the magnet strength, I'd have to say that this cable is perfect. If anything, maybe an extra foot or two of length would make it more appealing to others, as 4ft isn't enough for a lot of people.
Other than that, I think that this is the best option for anyone looking for a magnetic Micro USB cable. I bought 4 and they all work great

I was a skeptic...now I'm buying more!

I am one of the unfortunate individuals who supported the failing Kickstarter campaign for the Znaps product which is similar to the HKW cable. At the time of writing this review I had not yet received my product from Kickstarter and chose to go the route of HKW. The cable is a good quality, braided cable. The charger snaps to the connector with ease. The magnetic force utilized is enough to keep the cable attached but provides for an easy disconnect which makes this product superior to others I've tried. The charging end of the cable has dual indicators so regardless of orientation you will know that the cable is charing your device.
Once of m main concerns was that this cable supported Quick and Turbo charging...well it does. The nice thing is that during standard charing the LED indicator will light up but with any rapid charging it becomes brighter indicating that it is providing optimal charging speed as per your charger specifications.
I have tried other chargers like this that were adapters that you connect to your current cable and one of the downfalls of that system is that the charging end of your cable that connects to your phone/device is so large that it creates a larger degree of leverage leaving your cable more prone to disconnecting prematurely and unexpectedly. The HKW is the same size as a standard cable charging end minus the micro USB portion which means less leverage and a better, more stable connection.
I own 5 tablets and 2 phones and in my home we have about 11 mobile devices. We intend on adapting all of them with these cables. My 5 year old can now charge her tablets and disconnect them without me worrying about her damaging anything.

LOVE THESE CABLES

ByWilliam L. Naleon April 3, 2016

LOVE THESE CABLES! I'm one of many people who are waiting for the ZNap cables to be released. I found these on Amazon and jumped on them. I bought 3 sets. The micro USB insert fits perfectly on my Tab S tablet, Note 4 & HTC One M8 phones (all with cases). They connect so easy, I can do it in the dark. They fast charge and synch with no issues. If the connector inserts were offered separate from the cables and the magnets was a tiny bit stronger, it would be 5 stars. I'm so thrilled with these, I'll will be buying more.
UPDATE :
I now have 7 sets of these cables. Still pleased. I installed a waterproof case in my Note 4 and the magnetic connector fits perfectly under the access cover.
My HTC is being reused as a dash cam and I've never had this magnetic cable fall off on the roughest of roads. I'll will buy a few more until EVERY microUSB device I own is upgraded. Again, I wish the inserts were available separately.

ByArchoson February 26, 2016

Pros:
Fits my Sony Xperia Z5, other similar connectors did not but this one fits securely in.
Doesn't need tools to remove, I can pull it out with my fingernail.
Braided cable doesn't feel cheap.
Reversible charging and reversible connecting to a computer.
LED connection indicator.

Cons:
Can't find where to buy just the cable, after searching around it looks like the only way to buy extra cables is to buy this combo again. Hopefully in the future HKW makes this available.
Packaging is cheap but I don't care, some people might

Overall only time will tell how durable this actually is. For now out of the box I have high hopes for this connector, it feels secure and I'm very happy this convenience of mindlessly plugging in can be brought to any device.
