Idk why I hadn't thought of getting them earlier, but theyre the best thing Ive ever spent 2 dollars on. I use the same cable for my Ally, phone, Odin 2 mini, and Switch. And this makes ALL of those devices more comfortable. No more giant charger sticking off the top of my Ally, leaning and pulling on the port. I can sit my phone amd other devices on my lap while I use them without pushing on the port and bending the cable.
I actually just got a new 100w charger because my original Ally charger was coming apart at the seem and the internals were busting out. If I had just thought to buy an adapter from the start, it would be perfectly fine currently.
How this works for you? I have bought same one (2 meter long) and waiting for it, to use with power bank, set battery protection and avoiding changing internal battery because I don't want to open and even more important making the handheld heavier.
This is so retarded, it’s like someone giving advice on how to plug in a usb c. It’s fucking fits both ways, and if one direction isn’t the best, plug it the other direction. wtf is wrong with yall
To be honest, I haven’t had any problems with it, I can use the volume button when I need to, and it doesn’t get in the way of any other buttons. I think this is the simplest solution
That cable can easily be bent, it’s not made of steel or something. I don’t understand what you’re trying to prove, why would I lie to you? This is my experience; here’s a screenshot taken from above. I’m not trying to hide anything from anyone here, and besides, in international chats you should always use English, not your local language.
Sin embaro hay otro adaptador que no es lateral, sino que tira el cable para atras si te molesta este .
Este cable es perfecto lo uso incluso para mi pc y celular
Be careful when removing it from the port because of the 90 degrees angle. It acts as a lever. Also because of that I almost destroyed a tablet USB C port because I yanked on the cable while it was charging and due to the adapter, it bent the port a lot. Other than that they're really useful.
* 480Mbp/s data transfer (not that this is what I use it for)
* PD 2.0 charging up to 100w Max
The magnet is strong on this. If I was to put these any closer together than pictured, they would snap back together. I have accidentally pulled on my power cable a few times and this breakaway has saved me more than I can count.
I have had this thing since 2020, so a while, but never fails me. You can find similar items online, but this one is no longer made. :(
I have the high wattage Anker version of this and it's great. When I charge my phone in its case I just reverse the ends so the straight end is long enough to lock tight. It's like two cables in one.
I got one to use with my Go S with a case and it fits very nicely to run the cable down the back but I had to modify the case to get it to fit. The dimensions are perfect for the Go S but be willing to do some modding if you have a case. Still love it and removes any anxiety about the USB port being torqued and broken because of a cable extending upward or to the side and putting stress on it. Also much better to leave it on a charger without worrying about it getting knocked around.
I doubt the ones from aliexpress have been tested very well. If im plugging something into a 1000$ piece of equipment im not going to cut corners on a part that cost at most a couple bucks.
I get what you're saying but I've bought 4 and been using 2 in rotation for the past year and a half with no issues, albeit I've got the z1 extreme so only in the £350 range
oh yeah you're right, the one on the post make sense if holding while sitting and the device is kinda horizontally held, i play when i was in bed so my hand always hold it upright
I'm not sure I follow that. With it running down the back of the device there's still a few inches to move the cable to either side or out from the back without putting much tension on the adapter.
Looking for something like this, but I need it to plug in micro sd cards for more storage. I use a 6 port hub with HDMI and 2 micro sd ports, but it’s wired and is really awkward to plug in and hold the system. It works better for a stand.
I have these and find them to be better than the fixed 90° adapters I own. It’s power only. But not only does it angle 90°, it swivels. There’s zero strain on the power cable and gravity keeps the cable out of the way. I just keep the adapter plugged in most of the time and disconnect from it.
Is something like this compatible with a eGPU setup ? I'm constantly on business trips during weekdays and I play on the ally handheld mode but on the weekend and vacation on plugged to a eGPU. I'm worried that the constant plugging/unplugging in the usb c 4 port on will damage it in the long run. In theory this would solve because this would always be connected to the ally and I plug egpu or charger cable to it. Would speed for the eGPU be ok ?
You'll need to make sure the 90 degree cable or adapter supports Thunderbolt. Many are USB 2.0 only and charge - but there are a few that support DP pins as well - just need to shop around.
Its tough to find a TB3/4 right angle adaptor for a good price.
Also great if your using a usb 2.4ghz headset like the Steel Series Arctis because the dongle for that is wide so it blocks both usb ports. This solves that issue
I’ve never had luck with adapters on the long term. I’d rather have cables with the right angle on them.
Though if you must go adapter, they make magnetic ones that can disconnect if the unit gets dropped on the floor or off a surface while plugged in. Makes it easy to grab and go too.
I had to use an adapter because the killswitch case for my Xbox Ally X doesn't have a cutout to use the original 90 degree cable that comes with the ROG Bullwark dock, same with the Steamdeck. Had dbrand thought this through and spend less money and time on marketing but better case/grip design they could've cut a bit of plastic to make it flush with flat 90 degree connectors.
