Product Information
Full details
This GAMEware USB-C cable is for gamers with a PS5, Xbox Series X/S, or Nintendo Switch who need a reliable and fast charging solution. Its key benefit is enabling simultaneous play and charge with an extra-long cable. A potential caveat is its focus solely on USB-C devices, meaning it won't work with older micro-USB controllers.

FAQs
Can I use this cable for my phone?
Yes, if your phone features a USB-C charging port, this cable can be used to charge it quickly.
Does this cable support data transfer?
This cable is primarily designed for charging and may not support high-speed data transfer. Its main function is to power your devices.
What is the length of the cable?
The cable is 4 meters (approximately 13 feet) long, providing ample reach.
Is this cable compatible with the original PS4 or Xbox One controllers?
No, this cable is only compatible with devices that use a USB-C port. Original PS4 controllers use micro-USB and original Xbox One controllers use micro-USB (though some later models use USB-C).
Can I use this to charge my Nintendo Switch while playing in docked mode?
Yes, you can use this cable to charge your Nintendo Switch directly while it is docked and connected to a power source, or to power the Switch itself.
What makes this cable 'super fast'?
The cable is designed to maximize charging flow, ensuring your USB-C devices receive power as quickly as the device and power source allow, reducing charging time.
Troubleshooting
Controller not charging
Ensure the USB-C end is securely plugged into the controller and the USB-A end is properly connected to a working power source. Try a different USB port or power adapter.
Slow charging speed
Verify that the power source can deliver sufficient power. High-output USB ports or wall adapters will provide faster charging. Ensure the cable is not damaged.
Cable connection feels loose
Check for any debris in the USB-C port of your device or the USB-A port of the power source. If the connectors appear damaged, discontinue use.
Device not recognized by power source
Try a different USB-C device to confirm the cable is functioning. If other devices also fail to connect, the cable may be faulty.
