USB A to C and the Bensen Approved issue? - Note 7 Accessories

So do we need to care about the Bensen approved list of A to C cables?
Does the issue with A to C on the Nexus still apply to the Note 7?

Watch out when buying varius USB Type C chargers/adapters

Hi everyone........ if you haven't done so already, please check this (and maybe others) detailed review which shows that not all USB type C chargers and adapters that we will buy for the Nexus 6P and other devices are created or function equally. I already purchased one of the items (a micro USB female to USB- type C male adapter........ the kind that would allow you to keep your old micro USB adapters and car chargers in service) that is poorly rated in this review. http://www.amazon.com/gp/profile/A25GROL6KJV3QG/review/ref=pdp_new
Does the oneplus C to A adapter pass?

Thanks

I've been checking Benson's reviews regularly for a short micro to type-c cable for my ha2. It's been a few weeks since I last checked, but I haven't found anything confirmed to be specifications compliant. I'll check later tonight.
Yeah I haven't found no information either..
Came here looking for the same answer? I can't get my OPPO HA-2 to work with my Nexus 5x. I bought a Micro to USB C converter cable but it doesn't seem to work. Might be due to specific wiring for USB OTG.
Has anyone here had luck?
Hi, I couldn't get my OPPO HA-2 and Nexus 6P working with converters. I found a thread in reddit pointing to a USB C to Micro USB by Anker (Anker USB-C to Micro USB Cable (3.3ft) for USB Type-C Devices Including the new MacBook, ChromeBook Pixel, Nexus 5X, Nexus 6P, Nokia N1 Tablet and More - $7.99 on Amazon) and ordered it last week. Just wanted to let everyone know that it works perfectly (definitely stereo, and not mono like some users reported).

USB-C to USB-A with charging

I am looking for a usb-c "Y" style adapter that will work with my Nexus 6P so that i can transfer data while also charging my device. Ive looked on amazon and have not been able to find a compatible one. Does anyone know of one that is compatible with my device and can also charge it? Also, does anyone know of a usb-c dock that is capable of also charging the Nexus 6P?
Thanks for the help.

I believe Y adapters for type C devices are prohibited by USB specifications. If you are using a desktop with an open PCI slot, try something like this: http://amzn.com/B015JYYZNY

Safe USB-C Compliant Cables/adapters for Samsung Galaxy Note 7

Not all usb-c cables are created the same. Benson Leung at Google has reviewed numerous cables, and there are quite a few non-compliant cables. These cables can result in weird, or even dangerous behavior.

If you don't want to risk anything make sure you always use the compliant cables/adapters
Do we get USB 2.0 or 3.0?? I don't know what cable to get (I am in Europe if that will make a difference with model and such).
Need long 2ft 3ft cables
good quality

Snapdragon Note 7 Variants have USB Type C with USB 3.1.
Exynos Note 7 Variants have USB Type C with USB 2.0
Thanks for this thread. I plan on keeping the original cables wrapped for whenever I sell the phone, so this thread helps with good alternatives.
What about adapters? I just bought these hoping they will work fine. Planning to use my existing cables and will be keeping one in my keychain for when I'm at a place where there's only micro usb.

If I only want to use them for charging does it matter which one I get? I'll just use the original samsung one for data transfer at home but I need charging cables for my office and car.

No. There should be an adapter that babe with your s8+ that turns the USB standard end of your s8+ charging cable into a USB type c connector. I think it requires the use of the stock cable to work.
Although I have not tried it the way you suggested yet.

I tried using that software when I came from my Nexus 6p and went to a note 7, it didn't work for me. They may have updated it, but it said the Nexus phones aren't compatable
Weird. I used a regular USB C cable to connect my Pixel XL to my S8+ and it worked fine. Same when I switched from the Nexus 6P to the Pixel XL.
