Does anyone know where I can buy a good converter that charged quick and is otg functional?
There's a few available on AliExpress. I searched for "micro usb-c otg" and found them. But not sure what speed they'd let you charge at.

I found one. Thanks
Every converter that is tried has been crap. Better to just get new cables.
i bought this converter about a week ago, and so far so good, 3 pieces

Does this work as a charging adapter or is it just for data transfer? It came with my phone.

Cable is also very important, not only converter. Yeah, better off just buy new 5A cables.

Hi all,
Does anyone know where I can find the original Google provided USB C to A cable adaptor that comes in the box with the Nexus 6p? I'm not looking for a longer one as that one worked perfectly for my needs. I haven't seen it anywhere online, not even at the Google Store.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
This isn't the OEM cable, but it's a 1.5 foot cable from MonoPrice
https://www.monoprice.com/product?c_id=103&cp_id=10303&cs_id=1030319&p_id=13813&seq=1&format=2
For the price, you're probably better off getting a 3 or 6 foot cable to keep around in the event you don't have access to a USB C charger if you are not at home or something.

This one was also cleared by the Google person who tests all the cables

I have this cable in white/silver. It's a nice cable, but it's 6 feet long.
The google engineer benson had approved some complaint type c to a cables on his amazon profile.
I've been looking for a short one as well, but I haven't seen anything less than 0.5m so far.
So i got my nexus 6p yesterday, and i want to order a USB C to USB female cable, and i was wondering which one to order? i really don't want to fry my new phone, so i'll have to ask. I found one on ebay, which had 344 sold, so it might be ok. it was very inexpensive, but i don't know about the quality of the cable. Link: http://goo.gl/3Noo8V I also looked at the google store, and found one there. Would you reccomend me to buy that one instead? Link: https://goo.gl/CzxgLA
Any replies are appreciated.
i have these and they all work great:

About how to choose Type-C cable, you would like to check Google engineer Benson Leung, he reviewed nearly all Type-C cables on market.
See his review on http://www.amazon.com/gp/pdp/profile/A25GROL6KJV3QG/ref=cm_cr_rdp_pdp
Anyone know of any good adaptors similar to the OTG which would allow to connect USB memory sticks via the USB-C port.

Huh?G I'm using the Note 7 adapter. According to another site some OTG cables don't work with the Z so beware.
Found this on Google store. May go for it unless anyone's already tried with no luck. https://store.google.com/product/usb_type_c_to_usb_standard_a_adapter

Not sure if the actual term for it is OTG as that's what the adaptor was called for Microusb to USB A connection.

This is the one recommended to me on another thread and I use it reguarly.

Thanks but that's from the U.S. I'm in the uk
I havent used them but some companies are making flash drive with usb c and usb a if all you want it for is a flash drive you can get a flash drive that works without an adapter
Be careful of hard adapters, they (Ha Ha, YOU) will break themselves or your port
Edit, these may not be OTG also. Yet similar OTG 90* adapters have similar drawbacks/ benefits.
There are 2 like this on Amazon.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01N3SINB9/ref=ox_sc_sfl_title_2?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A33YL1HODFD2CL
I am going to get this soon.
This right angle horizontal, is not yet reviewed, but a sister item with right angle (up) is.
Frys usually stocks this style in micro, maybe a C version is there?
I have used one! The one I use works only with USB flash drives that are fat32 format! The brand of mine is belkin and I bought it from best buy!
Very nice to use this for watching movies and not having to use up storage on the device.
Only drawback is that the usb-c port does not allow you to use wired headphones at the same time! So, I had to go wireless Bluetooth headset!

Curious question. Since this is one of the first phones where the add-on option comes into play (mods), couldnt one devise an external ssd drive moto mod? Either that or one of those all-in-one adapter mods where i can plug in older tech? Im always skeptical about destroying the one & only port on the phone anyway.
In case anyone only wants flash storage I purchased the Sandisk Dual ultra and it works great, usb c and a usb a connector.
Also only have to carry one thing as opposed to two. I bought mine with 128gb storage, preformatted to fat32, was simply plug and play.
I want a new USB cable to charge my phone because the original is just too short. Can someone recommend a white cable for me? At least 1 meter long. I live in Hungary so I would buy it from Amazon.co.uk or such because of the shipping rates and delivery time. I read many articles about low quality non certified cables and I don't want to brake my phone... Thanks

BlitzWolf is said to be a trustworthy brand (honestly I do not have any experience with them) and here is a link to a 2m BlitzWolf type C cable: http://www.banggood.com/de/BlitzWolf-2_4A-USB-Type-C-Reversible-Braided-Data-Cable-6_56ft2m-USB-2_0-A-Male-to-USB-3_1-Type-C-p-1015831.html?rmmds=search

this was a huge compilation of USB cables for USB C back when Nexus 5x and 6p was released. I figured this might help new users that are getting into USB C type of devices.

Since it's on Google Docs, I think people update whenever they test, it's been a while since I've looked at it.

What I could add to this list that the Spigen cabels got better and they have a better quality than it used to be. Maybe it worth a try.

The cable arrived and its long enough to reach any distant furniture It looks like it has the same charging capability as the original one. I haven't done any test and not planning to do, but it really looks the same despite of the length of the cable. I also don't care about the data transfer speed because I use the original cable to transfer data from pc.
Hope this help anyone who looks for a longer cable

I bought a cable from Chotech and I am very satisfied with it!
It was this exact cable that I bought.
Supports quickcharge.
If you order an additional charger for the Honor, you can also get it with an included USB cable https://www.aliexpress.com/item/Ori...us-Honor-8-Mate-7-8-Usb-wall/32668184405.html
Sup guys I'm just curious to know which USB type c cable (that can transfer files, due with pc) works and has fast charging for pixel 4 xl ? I'm searching through Amazon but can't seem to find a good one and I do have one I use already TechMatte but it's pretty old since old Nexus days and think it's finally time for a new one lol TIA
