I've been wondering this for a while. I'm finally seeing the Note 10 devices shipping with USB-C to USB-C, which is great, but this is new for Samsung. Any particular reason they stuck to USB-A charging bricks until now? Is it just that they could accomplish their fast charging needs with it until we moved to 18W plus, which now requires USB-C to USB-C? Or is there another reason? I thought it was weird when I first got my S10+ and it still had a USB-A brick.

So I have some anker 333 cables that I have had for a few years that always worked fine but now that I have a samsung phone that utilizes what their marketing department terms "super fast charging 2.0," these cables can't do it. It causes a problem where the phone keeps switching between SFC and standard charging every few minutes and this can't be good for the battery. Yes, I have the stock samsung cable that is only 1m long that works fine and is sleeved with some really cheap feeling plastic.

Someone had suggested that if you see a cable being "USB-IF Certified" then it should be fine.

Does anyone know if this is true?

I'm looking at two belkin braided usb-c to usb-c cables. Both are USB-IF certified but one is rated for 240w and is considerably more expensive and the other is rated for 100w.

Supposedly, my phone only pulls 45w (it's an S23 ultra, if that matters).

Does anyone know if either cable will support samsung's super fast charging 2.0

I can dig up the actual product SKU's if it helps.

Thanks.
