Very good cable, unfortunately, with a deficit ...

Note in advance:
The indication in the article description "Backwards compatible with high-speed USB 2.0" is somewhat misleading.
What is meant is that USB3 devices !! can be connected with this cable also USB2 jacks on the computer. Otherwise, the cable is suitable only for USB3 devices (hard disks, etc.), because the USB3-B connector has (eg the connection to the hard drive), a different design.

Amazon introduced me as a product test 2 lengths available, 183cm and 274cm.

The cables are supplied in a, as in AmazonBasics customary appealing small cardboard box, wound clean and fixed.

Connectors and cables are visually well crafted. The connectors are gold-plated, stable welded to the cable and the cable is quite flexible for 6mm thickness.

The first unraveling hear crackling shield something proves that it exists. The crackling is but later and in my opinion, no error, even aerial cable crackles when unwinding. If the shield firmly welded to the sheath, the cable would be inflexible.

The devices will be recognized immediately and the transfer rates are excellent.

Must rework the Amazon Amazon Basic Button on the USB-A connector (of the computer).
The idea is having a raised button to sense the position equally well. Only all USB3 sockets are installed on my computers so that the button is at the bottom, so it must be palpated with the index finger. It is better if he is at the top.

More serious, however,
1. that is not stuck in a cable of the button in the recess and thereby shifts and sticky
2. that the buttons already difficult to solve, and you then have a greasy sticky surface on the plug.

So Amazon - rectify and use a better adhesive and inform the quality assurance of the Chinese.

Conclusion:
On the one hand good USB3 cable, which I would love to give it 5 stars.
The glued Amazon Basic Button but is Nachbessrungsbedarf, otherwise you will soon have sticky fingers.

++ Plated contacts
++ Flexible
++ Very good transfer rate
++ Very good contact

without Rating: ./ x x.

- In my opinion, the Amazon Basic sticker belongs on the USB-A to the other side
--- Basic Amazon sticker with a cable stuck unclean added and dissolves thereby
--- Amazon Basic stickers to dissolve easily and can be moved, then greasy Klebereste
