Plugable USB-C to DisplayPort Cable
USB-C to DisplayPort cables and adapters are tough to find in Singapore, so you must order online from Lazada or Amazon. I bought mine from Amazon for the wider choice, settling on the Plugable cable.
Cable
USB-C and other cables I have tested, from everyday chargers to fast-charging and data cables.
Satechi Aluminum USB-C Multi-Port Adapter
The Satechi Aluminum USB-C Multi-Port Adapter retails for US$89.99 in Gold, Space Grey, and Silver. A perfect compact docking station, it adds HDMI, Ethernet, three USB ports, USB-C pass-through charging, and SD and microSD card slots.
Satechi Aluminum USB-C Micro/SD Card Reader
Searching for a USB-C SD card reader, I found SanDisk's Apple Store option at S$75 expensive and SD-only. I instead settled on the Satechi Aluminum USB-C Micro/SD Card Reader from Amazon at US$14.99, though it ships only via a forwarder.
Apple USB-C Digital AV Multiport Adapter
The Apple USB-C Digital AV Multiport Adapter retails for S$98. It extends a single USB-C port into three: HDMI, USB-A, and USB-C. The HDMI supports full HD at 60Hz or 4K at 30Hz, though Apple notes some incompatibilities.
Apple Mini DisplayPort to VGA Adapter
I found an unopened Apple Mini DisplayPort to VGA Adapter in my drawer and decided to write it up. It retails for S$38, a price unchanged after all these years; the Mini DisplayPort to DVI Adapter costs the same.
Choetech USB-C to HDMI Cable
The Choetech USB-C to HDMI Cable retails for S$23.80 on Qoo10 with free shipping. This 3m cable supports up to 4K at 60Hz and works with Thunderbolt 3 laptops that support DisplayPort Alternate Mode, like the 2016 MacBook Pro.
ZUS Super Duty USB-C Cable
I got the ZUS Super Duty USB-C Cable alongside the matching Lightning Cable, thanks to my brother Leroy. Unlike the Lightning version, the USB-C comes only with a right-angled USB end. At 1.2m, it retails for US$19.99.
ZUS Super Duty Lightning Cable
The ZUS Super Duty Lightning Cable is my second nonda product, after the ZUS Smart Car Charger I still use. It retails for US$19.99 plus flat shipping, comes in one 1.2m length, and offers a straight or right-angled end.
Apple USB-C to Lightning Cable (1m)
The Apple USB-C to Lightning Cable comes in two lengths: 1m at S$28 and 2m at S$42, both recently discounted prices of unknown duration. Avoid authorised resellers, which still charge the old S$34 and S$48 pricing.
Apple Lightning to 3.5mm Headphone Jack Adapter
The Apple Lightning to 3.5mm Headphone Jack Adapter retails for S$14, though most authorised resellers were out of stock; I grabbed the last two from iStudio Paragon. The build feels fragile, with a thin, breakable cable.
OKPOW USB Type C Cable
The OKPOW USB Type-C Cable is a 1m USB-C to USB-A cable retailing for US$12.99 on Amazon, which doesn't ship to Singapore directly. Based on USB 2.0, it has gold-plated ends and a durable nylon-braided exterior.
Anker Powerline+ Lightning Cable
I bought the Anker PowerLine+ Lightning Cable (0.9m) from Amazon for US$13.99. Since it doesn't ship to Singapore directly, I forwarded it via HopShopGo. It comes in four lengths, from 0.3m at US$12.99 up to 3m at US$16.99.
GP Smart On-The-Go Accessories & Power Banks
GP Batteries has expanded its Smart On-The-Go accessory and power bank range to include USB car and wall chargers, charge-and-sync cables, and power banks. The USB car chargers come in three models, from single-port 2.4A to triple-port 6.3A.
Dash microSD & Dash SD Card Reader
I backed the Dash microSD and SD Card Reader on Kickstarter in November 2015, a project that raised US$11,492 from 717 backers. I chose the US$22 reward, paying about US$25 with shipping, for a compact build-your-own card reader.
Bluelounge Soba Cable Routing
The Bluelounge Soba is a cable routing kit that bundles multiple cables into a single tube for a neater look. I bought mine at Paragon in Bangkok for about S$36. It comes in black or white.
Bluelounge Pixi Multi-Purpose Tie
The Bluelounge Pixi is a multi-purpose cable tie in Small, Medium, and Large. Each size includes two cable lengths in differing quantities, yet all cost the same, about S$16. I picked mine up at Paragon in Bangkok.
Google USB Type-C to USB Standard-A Plug Cable
The Google USB Type-C to USB Standard-A Plug Cable was out of stock for a while; I grabbed one when it returned on 9th November 2015. It doesn't ship to Singapore directly, so I forwarded it via HopShopGo.
iOrange-E USB Type-C Cable
The iOrange-E USB Type-C Cable is one of Benson Leung's recommended USB-A to USB-C cables. It comes in gold, silver, and black, each in three lengths, 0.5m, 2m, and 3m. Prices have crept up since his endorsement.
Apple USB-C Charge Cable (2m)
The Apple USB-C Charge Cable retails for S$42 in just one 2m length; I wish it also came in 0.5m and 1m. Its reversible plugs mean no orientation markings on the ends, much like Apple's Lightning cables.
OnePlus Type-C Cable 150cm + OnePlus USB Type-C Adapter
The OnePlus Type-C Cable 150cm and USB Type-C Adapter bundle retails for S$23 on Lazada, a saving over buying the S$17 cable and S$14 adapter separately. The OnePlus cable is easily one of the nicest-looking USB-C cables around.
Getting USB Type-C Cable From Amazon? Read This Guy Review First
If you're buying a USB Type-C cable on Amazon, read Benson Leung's reviews first. A Google engineer and big proponent of USB-C, he's worked on two Pixel products using the connector and tests cables for compliance, flagging the unsafe ones.
Apple Watch Magnetic Charging Cable
I bought the Apple Watch Magnetic Charging Cable while on holiday in the UK, where it cost £25, about S$53, before tax refund, likely matching the Singapore price after the refund. It comes in two lengths, 1m and 2m.
