Perfect for firmware updates
Bought this specifically to run the firmware update on my RAD 490i and it worked flawlessly on the first try. The 6ft length is great for reaching from my laptop to the dash without unplugging anything. Good build quality for the price.

Solid cable, does the job
Charges my radar detector fast and handles data transfers fine. Nothing fancy, but it's OEM Cobra so I trust it more than a random cheap cable.

Decent but a bit pricey
It's a USB-C cable, it works, the firmware update went through. But $9.95 feels steep for a cable when generic ones are half that. I keep it because the knockoffs gave me connection errors during updates.
