Very Good For Quest 2 - With Limitations
This cable has worked very well with Quest and now Quest 2. It is a little on the stiff side, but not too bad. I have it plugged into my graphics card at the back of the PC tower (an RTX2080ti) and it worked from the start with zero problems.The two issues that may bother some are firstly, the plug is not ideal. It's a horizontal right-angle, as seen in the description images and while this would be ideal for using when seated and close to the source, as it can go round the back of the headset strap and be kept well out of the way, this does mean there is less spare length to play with - and this is the second issue.It is not ideal for standing in VR, because it has to hang free to the front to be long enough to not hinder arm movement too much. You have to think about it when using VR in this way, so as to avoid catching the lead. However, it can be done. Roomscale VR is not an option for obvious reasons.To sum up, I would definitely recommend it for seated VR, where you are close to the output. I sit at a large PC desk, where the output from the graphics card is about 1m away to the side. I would advise caution if it is required for standing VR, but it does do the job, and to look elsewhere (i.e. wireless with Virtual Desktop) for roomscale.

Works with Oculus Link
Seems like a well made cable. Quite thick and difficult to bend and can hold its shape a bit. Seems very durable along the cable itself and at the connectors.Works very well with Oculus link and I've been using it for seated experiences with the Oculus Quest 2. I would say it's not really long enough for anything near room scale VR. The cable is advertised as 10Gbps although when I test it with the Oculus software the result is 2.9Gbps. I'm not sure whether this is the maximum bandwidth required for Quest 2 or whether it is false advertising for the cable itself.Running the debug tool and increasing the bandwidth to the Quest results in very smooth looking games with no complaints. Oculus have not switched on 90fps for Quest 2 as yet, but when they do, I'm sure 2.9Gbps will be more than adequate to deal with it as I also have used Virtual Desktop at only 866Mbps to run games at 90fps. I would say the gaming experience with a cable link gives a smoother and more reliable experience than virtual desktop which can stutter a bit depending on your wifi network strength/speed.At the £16.99 I paid, i think this is unbeatable in terms of quality for a 3m link cable. Recommended.

Quest2 - cable would be lighter without Braid
I got this for the Oculus Quest2. When i first plugged it in and enabled PC-VR link mode i got electrical interference the sort you get with unshielded cables. I removed it and plugged it back in and it stopped so am not sure why it did that but it works now.It got 4 stars because they clearly state it works on Quest2. But they could of designed the cable without the nylon braid and made it lighter. If it was lighter it would be perfect for quest 2 for small rooms at 3m long.I also tested this with 1m Belkertech USB-C Extension Cable of the same spec (3.1 Gen2 10Gbps) and worked just the same so i can get 4m out of it. They could of sold a 4m version as i have tested it at 4m on Quest2 and it works just fine.Also the angled USB-C connect should of been wider as i struggle to remove out the Quest being as it's so small with no grip.

Damaged or incompatible?
This cable did not work for Oculus Link straight out of the box. I attempted everything possible in troubleshooting my PC and the cable, and had very limited success with oculus link. It almost always showed up as USB 2.0 and after extensive help from Oculus support, they said that it must be damaged conductor in the cable because the 3.1 gen 2 speeds were very temperamental and only achieving 1.6Gb/s when it did work (less than the expected >2.0Gbps). I have returned this because it seems to be faulty/damaged from the factory. It seems that others have had greater success and I am happy for them but this cable did not work for me and I will not be risking another one.Cable seems tough and rugged but since it's damaged from factory, how rugged can it be?

Excellent USB-C power and data cable. Looks neat and works great.
I've been using full time for office work for over a month and I can confidently say this is an excellent cable, everything works without a single glitch. The angled connector makes a big difference both practically (reducing the risking of damaging it) and aesthetically (no having a cable sticking out of the laptop makes the desk look so much neater.)It delivers all the power I need for the laptop (MacBook Air), and supports all the peripherals I use. I plug it into a USB-C hub, which in turns has charger, 4K monitor, 1080p webcam, microphone and as SSD hard drive attached. Everything works fine just like the original cable. Note: the USB hub is a Satechi https://www.amazon.co.uk/Satechi-USB-C-Go-Multiport-Adapter/dp/B08X1YVCZGFor the transfer speeds to/from the SSD hard-drive, I haven't benchmarked it, as I don't need extreme speeds, but it is subjectively more than adequate for office use.
