I hate cable messes but my job practically requires me to live in an eternal tangle of cables, wires, and an impossible-to-manage proprietary and universal charging hell. USB-C made a lot of things simpler for me, but despite the many cables on my desk and in my bag, I always find myself with a cable that’s either too long or too short.
At my desk, for example, I want something that stows away easily to keep the clean look of my new Satechi Dock 5, but can still extend on demand to allow me to use the phone in my chair. In my living room, I want a cable that lets me use my phone or tablet on the sofa while they charge, but that doesn’t leave a long snakey wire behind when not in use.
