Surface Connect to USB-C Charging Cable 15V/3A, Compatible with Microsoft Surface Pro 7/6/5/4/3, Surface Laptop 3/2/1, Surface Go, Surface Book (6FT)

EDIT UPDATE- My charging cable still works after 9 months of daily use in a backpack and in and out of a car charger. I am buying a 2nd one because the indicator light stopped working (sometimes it comes on) but this has not affected being able to charge or charging speeds and I will update if the cable breaks. Still the best cable I have found. Will use the new one and keep the older in my car. So my Surface Laptop was just replaced with warranty because I was going through a power supply every 5-6 weeks and was swapping them out also with warranty. And I still can't keep a power supply working with the new computer. M$. This cable works and is not $80 like some others. And while I just got it today I will be sure to say something if this one breaks but already it "feels like higher quality. I will be happy if it lasts 9 months but the OEM one is to be avoided.

Plugging this into my 120w USB travel charger allows me to leave the brick adapter at home. Good quality, cord is lengthy, my Surface Pro 7 loves this cable, charges swiftly in less then 2 hours, even with my phone charging at the same time. Also worked with my 60w usb charger, slower charge speed however.

I had intended to use this to have a traveling charger for my Surface Pro 6. It has to be used with a USB-C power supply or charger that supports 15V/3A output. Amazon's website recommended buying the RavPower Super-C 61W 2-ports Wall Charger. The wall charger shows a little light indicating it's functioning. The wall charger successfully powers my iPhone through its cable plugged into the regular USB port. But the Surface Pro shows it's operating on battery power despite being plugged into that wall charger. I returned the first cable; the second one arrived and has the same results. So there are two possibilities: 1. Amazon recommended the wrong wall charger. 2. This cable just plain doesn't work. Either way, they're both going back because I can't keep doing this.

This lets you use the MSFT version of the MagSafe port on the Surface with a USB-C PD port. It works fine, and has a little light on it to know you are charging, just like the factory power adapter. It disconnects when you pull on it just like the factory one too. Note that you have to have a relatively high-power "PD" port to plug this into. The little basic USB-C charger that came with your phone likely doesn't have enough zip to power the Surface. The main reason to buy this is so you can pack a single power brick when you travel, you don't need to pack a separate adapter for the Surface and another one for your phone, headphones, etc. I would rate the cord length as adequate, but certainly not exceptionally long. I think the factory adapter might be slightly longer, but the difference is negligible. So just like with the factory adapter, you need to bring a small extension cord along if you want to be sure you can easily plug in your computer almost anywhere.

This is by far the best charging cable for Surface I have ever used. I travel a lot and this cable fits anywhere. USB C is so much more convenient than charging with a Micro USB or a standard USB port these days. My first cable failed and stopped charging in about 11 months, but the Seller responded very quickly and sent me a replacement cable immediately. I definitely recommend the cable.

If you are a Surface Pro instead of a regular surface, you get to deal with Pro power requirements. I had to upgrade to a 15V-3A PD GaN charger, which is probably what you want anyways if you're like me and trying to ditch the bulky adapter and live that single-travel-charger USB-C lifestyle. Don't expect your underpowered 15V-2A PD battery to respond to a Surface Pro while the device is running. Mine didn't. A 15V-2A charger might respond, but using while charging with an underpowered supply causes that weird problem of your trackpad cursor/touchscreen jumping all over the place. Upgrading to a 61W Ravpower PD charger (which can switch to 15V-3A) works perfectly. For the record, the 87W Macbook charger cannot into 15V because Apple only uses special voltages for some reason: 20.2V, 9V, and 5.2V. The cable is smart enough to "I'd rather not break your surface and macbook charger" if you try to plug that in. I'm pretty sure a few of the negative reviews are along the lines of "this cable didn't tell me it was preventing damage because I used an incompatible charger."

Works great with the proper charger, and a better option as well IMO than get another stock charger as it's more versatile. The only thing I found is that if you have a "smart" charger that limits output to other ports based on what's plugged in, this will fool it whether you're charging a Surface or not. I'm guessing it's due to the circuitry to force charging voltage and light up the charging light. It's easy enough to unplug when not in use though. Thoughts for an improvement would be having a slightly longer version.

The cable will only charge my Surface Pro 7 in 1 orientation. If I put the surface connector in with the cable coming out of the bottom the led just blinks and it will not charge at all. Also, I am using power delivery plug that is recommended for this cable.

Compact. I only need to carry one charger now. No bulky Surface charger so long as the PD charger has enough output. Conserves USB-C port of Surface

It works fine...

ممتاز .. احرص أن يكون الشاحن بقوة 65w وأعلى
