Xiaomi has launched a new USB-A to USB-C data cable called Xiaomi 6A in the Chinese market. The data cable is priced at 49 yuan (approximately $6.76) and is now up for sale on JD.com.

Xiaomi 6A USB-A to USB-C Data Cable Specifications:

Coming to the specs, the cable can deliver up to 120W of power when paired with compatible Xiaomi chargers. The cable offers a significant charging boost with its 6A current output.

In terms of compatibility, the Xiaomi 6A cable is designed to work with a wide range of devices. It supports charging for mainstream smartphones, tablets, laptops, wearables, and other electronic devices, making it a versatile option for users with various gadgets.

The cable’s key design element is the use of skin-friendly silicone. This material offers a comfortable grip, prevents tangles, and makes storage easier. Additionally, Xiaomi boasts that the cable can withstand over 10,000 plugging and unplugging cycles on the phone side, ensuring long-lasting durability.

The Xiaomi 6A cable also offers 480Mbps data transmission speeds, enabling smooth file transfer between devices. With a 2-meter length, the cable provides ample reach for charging your devices from a comfortable distance, eliminating the need to be right next to a power outlet.

For added peace of mind, Xiaomi states that the cable has undergone rigorous testing to ensure safety and reliability. This includes national and industry-related safety and certification processes.

However, it’s important to note that Xiaomi’s website doesn’t explicitly specify which chargers support this full 120W potential with the USB-A port. Currently, only two of their 120W+ chargers feature USB-A ports: the 120W GaN charger and the 140W GaN three-port charger.

The cable comes in three color options: white, purple, and blue, allowing users to choose a shade that matches their style.

All we know after Apple making their new product the data cable has been change to the new Lightning data cable, and we have covered the news about this device since Apple open the standar of this cable for third party manufacturer.

Apple introduced a smaller, more convenient Lightning interface, while the Lightning did not let people down, smaller, more convenient and fast, both sides can use its advantages.

However, due to the higher price of Apple original Lightning data cable, a lot of users for convenience switch to the cottage version of the Lightning data lines. As for the doing is correct, the the bubble net today brings us a comprehensive comparison, so that users understand between the fake and original Lightning data cable in the end which is better.

The first point is the price, while the original Apple lightning data cable offers for 149 yuan, the fake Lightning data cable only sold for 40 yuan. But on the online shopping website, this fake Lightning data cable is more popular and most wanted products.

From the shape and size, there is no different between the fake data cable with the original one, since third party manufacturer made the same size and color of the Lightning data cable, and for some ordinary user, this maybe make little dazzling to choose.

For the first sight, you can see the final products, the original data cable have good shape and smooth after-process, while the imitation product is look very different. While on the head port, the fake data cable has more large in size. You can see the different below:

While for the function, both device offers the same function, both data cable can transfer the data between your iOS device with your PC and can supply the electricity for charge the iOS device. If you  attach the fake data cable to the PC, the PC does not response the fake data cable.

We try to disassemble the fake one, and found the different parts, while the fake data cable cannot use at iOS 6.1 firmware.

While we assume that the fake data cable is more risky for user, since Apple did not allow the non-certified manufacturer to produce third-party data cable, and it possibly to harm for your iOS device, so we suggest you have to buy the original data cable rather than a cheap data cable but can make your device damage forever.
