Quest 2 owners who came searching for reviews first: here's an honest review for ya:
Physically, the cable isn't flimsy like a standard phone charger. It does come packaged as a coil but it doesn't take long to wear it into shape and comes with a Velcro strap attached to keep it at the length you need it.Upon testing the speeds of the 6ft version with the Oculus PC app, it can handle the Link feature fine as Oculus has stated on their site. But only at 2.0Gbps and NOT the 5Gbps advertised on here. To be fair (again, in my experience with the 'meh'-length 6ft cable) I am using the USB 3.0 port at the front of my PC case instead of any of the motherboard 3.0 ports.As for using this as a normal charger, it works just fine. My S22 Ultra receives fast-charging with it, so long as it is plugged into an outlet that can produce the required 25-45WI digress slightly, but overall - get the 10ft version. I only really suggest the official Link cable if you genuinely need the extra 6ft of cableThe 6ft length is decent if you're only using the headset in stationary/sitting Guardian Boundaries directly next to your PC/laptop for games that don't require much bodily movement (i.e. Sim racing: Dirt Rally 2 & F1; Some FPS and 'Fitness' games, depending on various other situations: Pavlov VR [Pavlov Shack beta, as is know on the Oculus store] & Beat Saber.

Very thick cable!
The photo shows this 10ft Anker cable (on the left) and the old 6ft ravpower cable (on the right, the same thickness as other charging cables I've had before) that finally gave up the ghost after several years. This one is impressively weighty! Takes up more space, even when coiled, but I can see it lasting a good while and surviving quite a battering from everyday use.I haven't tried it in the fast charging plug, but plugged into a standard usb slot on an extension cable it charged my phone just fine at "normal" speed.

Capable pcvr cable
Can stream high quality video from my pc to my vc headset with no issues it does however feel a bit heavy and restrictive at times though that may just be the nature of a high information capacity cable

Good product but inefficient
Returned this item as it was just marginally too short for what I wanted it for. The only other thing I'd say about it is that the cable could have really benefitted from a right-angle connector connecting to the VR headset as a traditional connector meant it stuck out and I couldn't neatly align it to the headset.

Very good!
It's very good for the price, although it is a bit heavier than I expected.... Works well as a replacement cable for Occulus!

Why not make it a full metre in length
With this cable my devices charge at their higher rate, so in that respect the cable does its job well. The cable is only 0.9m, the full 1m would be better - I know it's only 10cm but that would make a big different. As for its relaibility, only time will tell, but I've never had issues with Anker cables in the past.

Powerful as described, but lacks durability.
I purchased this cable with the aim of achieving swift charging and ensuring durability. Yet, on the two occasions I've bought it, it came up a bit short.The cable's significant thickness, which you might assume indicates durability, ironically becomes a double-edged sword. Both times, not only did the cable split at the connector end from typical bending and handling, but this splitting led to the inner cabling jutting out. It's clear the cable's build, optimised for performance, involves a lot of internal wiring. When it bends close to the connector, it seems particularly prone to snapping, revealing these sharp inner wires.On a positive note, its charging speed is undeniably superior. Compared to other cables I've used, it charges notably faster. With a mid-tier power bank, a full charge is done in roughly 20 minutes. I use a RavPower power bank.Despite its charging efficiency, the recurring issue with durability pushes me towards a 3-star rating.
