The Spigen Thunderbolt 4 USB-C cable is one cable that you will need for both your fast data transfer speed and charging on your iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max.

Best USB-C to C Cable for iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus

1. Anker USB-C Cable (Pack of 2)

This two pack of USB-C cables from Anker is a solid bet. It’s a 3-foot-long cable, which is long enough that you won’t have to leave your phone far away while it charges. Plus, the cables are braided, which is great for two reasons — it won’t tangle within itself, and it will be more durable in the long run. Anker claims a 10,000 bend lifespan for the cable, so it should last quite long. The cable also supports up to 60W fast charging, which is more than enough because the iPhone 15 series is still capped at 20W — sigh.

• Cable Length – 2.6 ft
• Rated Power – 100 W
• Rate Data Transfer Speed – 40 Gbps

Well, the AINOPE USB-C cable is perfect for you — it has a right angled, elbow connector on one end, which you can plug into your iPhone and comfortably use it while it charges. It also supports up to 100W fast charging, so you can use this to charge any MacBook as well. What’s more, there’s a USB-A adapter included with the cable, so you can connect it to Type-A chargers, and even use the adapter as a USB Type-A to Type-C dongle if needed.

4. Magtame Magnetic USB-C Cable

I don’t know about you, but I find it a very annoying task to tidily wrap up my iPhone cable after use. However, the Magtame Magnetic USB-C cable comes with built-in magnets that make wrapping up the cable easy. The braided USB-C cable also supports up to 60W fast charging, and Magtame offers a hassle-free lifetime warranty as well. It doesn’t, however, support the 10Gbps transfer speeds that your iPhone 15 Pro can get, instead, it’s rated at 480Mbps.

Lastly, you can also check out this magnetic USB-C cable, which comes with detachable USB-C and Lightning connectors that magnetically attach to the charging cable. The charging cable magnetically connects to the connectors, and you can easily detach them as well — just like the MagSafe chargers on the new MacBooks. Since it has both Lightning and USB-C connectors, you can use it with old iPhones as well. Plus, you can leave the connectors plugged into your iPhone, and along with your iPhone 15 Pro’s case, they will sort of act like a dust protector for your iPhone.
