Reddit mentions of CableCreation USB C to USB C Cable 10ft 60W, Braided USB-C Cable 3A Fast Charging, Space Gray, Compatible with MacBook(Pro), Galaxy S20/S20+/S20 Ultra/S10/S9/S9+, Note 10, Pixel 3XL, etc.

Finding options is minimal effort. Go to amazon, search for “usbc to usbc”, then filter the result by 10ft or greater lengths.

I got this cord and this charger for charging while in hand held mode and it works great.

After going through six other cables, including USB-C to C and USB-C to A, I can confirm the following works:

EDIT: Added to Link Hardware Poll

I can also confirm the followed didn't work for me (in a PCI-E USB-C adapter or the RXT2080 USB-C):

I use an Anker Power line and Cable Creations. Both are great. The Anker is 6' the cable creations is 10'. I use the Google type C brick for both.

That's weird, I have no issues with USB C to USB C connections.

Both of those are USB 2.0 cables so they were never in with a chance.

I have been looking into it but have not decided to buy yet. I am looking at this Magnetic Connector and this 10ft USB-C Cable. Both support data transfer but at USB2 speeds. I do not know if the Quest supports USB3.

This is all you need.

I needed a longer cable so I got the 10 ft usb-c to c from canle creation on Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01D175HMO/ref=cm_sw_r_sms_awdo_t1_.Kf5Ab447QDAM

CableCreation cables are awesome! I chatted with Benson, and although he hasn't reviewed them, he recommended them to me and I haven't looked back. Super high quality and a great price https://www.amazon.com/CableCreation-Braided-Charging-Macbook-Chromebook/dp/B01D175HMO/ref=lp_12698350011_1_16?srs=12698350011&ie=UTF8&qid=1473427311&sr=8-16

That one works great for charging for my nexus and pixel. No issues. I havent tested the speed for data transfer. I use it with the Google power plug.

Aukey 12 watt AC Adapter

And 2 pack of 6ft cables

You could probably go with an AC adapter with a bit more wattage, but don't exceed 20 watts of output. That's the danger zone for un-official chargers.

Alternatively you could just get a Extension cable and stick a male to female adapter on one end. For whatever reason they don't make male to female cables over ~4ft

I just ordered the following cables/adapters on Amazon hoping that I can plug this straight into my RTX 2080 and have a cable length over 5 meters.... Not sure if it will work, but I'll find out tomorrow.

I've not found an alternate charger yet - but disgusted that they wanted $20 for what would end up being a frayed crappy Apple cable after a year - I bought this USB-C cable instead and it works beautifully. It's nice and long so I don't miss the mains cable that Apple screwed us over as well.

I got 2 of these, one for work and one for next to my bed. Both work great & work with both the default and 3rd party USB-PD rapid chargers.

What cables are you using? Both OEM cables, this C-C cable and this A-C all work with mine.

I have this and absolutely love it but it is 3a

Hi! So I think I can bring some insight to your post. I assume this will be the same, however when I bought my Pixel XL 2, it came with a female USB-A to male USB-C adapter. This adapter can be used on a longer USB-A cable so that you have that capability of charging and also plugging the phone into your car/radio if applicable.

Secondly, I wouldn't recommend using anything USBA>USBC simply because you will not be experiencing the fast charge through that type of cable. Fast charge is only supported only with a USBC cable and proper power brick.

Here is the car charger I use. I specifically chose this because I'm able to power my police radar detector via USBA and charge my phone via USBC: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01E764DXM/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1

And here is a 10ft USBC cable that I bought because it was rated as a "safe" cable back when the USBC standard was rolling out with Nexus 6Ps and such: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01D175HMO/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I've got this one and it's a fucking tank. Can't see it breaking for a long long time.

Here is one from Amazon

The Essential phone is very, very picky about cables and chargers. The cable they included in the box is a very low quality cable and should be replaced for purposes besides charging. If you bought during an eBay special, you may have an unusually low quality charger.

For optimal (fast) charging, you want a high quality USB-PD rated USB wall (or car) charger supporting USB-C to USB-C charging.

Something like this, this, or this along with a USB type C to type C cable.

Once I switched to doing it this way, my phone started to charge rapidly every time.

Check out Benson's reviews of USB C cables. I couldn't believe there were so many bad cables out there.

BTW I bought a CableCreations 10FT cable from Amazon for $8.88 and it works great. Benson approved.
