Broke after a year

I received this in October of 2023. It's been spotty since I got it, but I figured it was just the fit with my Keychron K7. I would periodically experience my keyboard not responding and receiving a USB device error from Windows. I needed to unplug and replug to regain the connection. Again, I thought it was because of the loose fit in my K7. It was just this cable though. I checked the connection and seating with other USB-C cables I have, and they all sat flush with my keyboard. The last two weeks, I noticed that the plug end of the cable was loose. The metal connector was jiggly in the plastic body. Today it finally conked out and the connector head got stuck in my keyboard. I'm not sure if this is a design issue or if I just got a bad cable. I have a different color of this exact cable and it doesn't give me any problems. Next time I will seek a replacement as soon as I notice an issue instead of letting it drag on for a year and a half.

A Little Expencive

The cable is really nice and I nougat it in addition to the CSTM80 and have had no issues with it. The only con i can think of is the price. It is a little pricey even with a discount. Over all, i think it is a great product if you have money to spend.

Sexy red cable

I love this cable. The only issue I have with the personally is that it does fit a little bit loosely into a USB-C slide, and it is not as snug as even my standard USB-C cables. But still plugs in and I don’t have any connection issues.

Expensive, but at least it’s nice

I had some Drop cash to spend so I decided to replace my USB-C cable. So what do we get here? Well… yeah, just a cable, so there’s not much to say about it, but… Pros:

The Red color is really nice. It has an ever so slight amount of Orange to it.
Great amount of length to the cord.
USB-C tip is fairly long, so it fit in some devices that had some awkward entries.
The clasping mechanism, while I have no idea what it’s for, does extend the cable and makes a nice clickity sound.

Cons:

It’s quite expensive for a USB-C cable.
I don’t understand the need for the connector— I wish it was a magnetic clasp for break away, in case you use this cable with something other than a keyboard.
Wish it came with another endpoint type, like a USB-C or that really old circular one (instead of just the normal USB)

Arbitrary: its not a necessary piece, but neither are mechanical keyboards, mats, those 2 sets of headphones, that boom mic, etc.; 😏 this is definitely a stylistic purchase and for the most part, it’s nice. Is it worth $40? Probably not. What about $30? meh, I’d really would need to be making a stylistic choice (which I was). And $20? for sure, reasonable at this price, but you can probably get a decent braided cord for $10. Would you recommend? Yes and No. (I marked yes) Yes, because if you have the money, it’s a fine luxury item, a kin to a nice shirt from a luxury brand. No, because it’s over priced and doesn’t provide anything more special but looks, like a shirt from a luxury brand. edit: seems like the connector is swapping end points lol. So now I know.

Nice Yes, Needed No

Bought this as an add on, so it was fairly reasonably priced. Solidly built and looks nice, however its just a USB cable that classes up the joint. If it really fits your setup or if you just like this stuff like I do why not, otherwise I'd say use what you already have.
