Affordable Option | Teardown of Apple Thunderbolt 4 Pro USB-C Cable (1M)

[@sunsetsam33]

Just got the 3m version to work with my 5 bay Thunderbolt 3 external array. Works like a charm. The only Apple item I own, not cheap, but the build quality and expected reliability won the prize. So far no regrets.

Nice! Love seeing these teardowns. It’s amazing how small we can make coax cables nowadays.

[@ChargerLAB]

It sure is!

[@ColonelSevendot]

Excellent. Thank you for the teardown. Very informative.

[@ChargerLAB]

Glad to help

Great Video! Nice voice and video quality 🎉

There was a different 1m version originally included with the Studio Display that had the larger connectors from the 1.8m and 3m cables.

[@fr0zenwaffl3s]

I would love to know if the connector is the same or different on the inside.

[@onlyvik]

That also got my attention. Are there different versions between the Apple one meter cables?

[@NicksStuff]

I hope you'll do other cable teardowns I'm on the market for a couple of 240W ones but I'd be happy to learn about data speed of various cables as well

[@Errcyco]

Theirs every pin is individual and criss-cross.. amazing engineering. That end connection click must feel great. Im using a poor-mans Amazon Basics USB$ Type-c cable.. works well for $10

[@tsundichen5266]

why 1:41 show this cable is thunderbolt 3 ???

[@81Nightro]

Thank U so much!

[@ChargerLAB]

You're welcome!

Hi. Can you also do a teardown of Samsung's 3A cable that came with the latest phones such as Samsung A54?

[@tsundichen5266]

1:41 it just show that it is 被動型雷電3數據線 (passive thunderbolt 3 cable)

[@emre2na]

Please check out the Razer 130w GaN wall charger now. Nobody has done this!

[@stephenbui490]

OWC cable please?

[@sharonb.9128]

Can you review Apple’s latest thunderbolt 5 cable? I think they’re asking $70 for it! Most critics say it’s another Apple “rip-off”. I find Apple rarely rips buyers off in the common way. Apple usually provides devices of the highest quality and performance and sets a high price. Forcing consumers to choose between highest quality or lower price devices.

[@BoydWaters]

Passive 1 meter Thunderbolt cables, which don't use a retimer, may be able to support the most recent revision of Thunderbolt, that doubles the data rate to 80 Gbits/s. But I'm not sure. As usual, I am confused by Thundebolt. I would like a future-proof cable. Or at least something that won't be obsolete in a couple of years.

[@vevenaneathna]

they could make the wires out of pure silver and it would still only cost about 15 bucks in material

[@dericmiguel1]

i dont think the 13" mbp has a thunderbolt 4 port. could be affecting disk speed test results

[@danielegger6460]

The base version doesn't. However it has TB3 and I think the same USB version. So unless the device used to test the speed was a TB4 enclosure, there shouldn't have been any noticeable difference... Probably more related to MacOS vs Windows.
