The least bad I have encountered yet is this: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/143305414094?var=442219881482 With an ever so slightly less protrusion, and with a better ability to snap the magnet when closing than the Raxfly. Often the Raxfly needs a slight push to get it right, it often snaps like this: 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jordi 72 Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 I bought a magnetic connector and this one also is protruding a lot, this seems a constant of all these devices. Not very convenient but it's easier to remove. Nevertheless, I will try to reduce the length of my connector by several tenth of mm. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rob. S. 1,559 Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 (edited) Just for the record, for some time now I'm quite satisfied with the NetDot Gen10 (available through Amazon and ebay) type of magnetic connector cables. They look similar (if not identical) to what both Hook and Craig found. These cables are not cheap, but they work well mechanically and electronically, across USB-C and Micro-USB (and Apple would be an option, too) sockets for charging and data – although only USB 2, but that still seems to go for all of them as far as I can see. These do support quick charge – for which I couldn't care less. But I guess it's worth mentioning that they even supported my Motorola phone's "Turbo Power" quick charge, which hardly any of the conventional cables I have lying around managed to do... Also, NetDot clearly labels their different generations of connectors and says which are compatible to which, what I think to be a service that stands out among all those sellers of magnetic connector cables. (On a side note, the "MaxFly" cables I tried earlier didn't just fail to quick-charge my Motorola phone, they short-circuited it every time I connected it, forcing a cold boot.)
