I always use anker accessories. I find them reliable.
I used to believe a lot of things.
Newegg sold really good products.
Blizzard made good games.
America is the land of the free.
Things change. Anker rose to the top for low priced products that were good. And now that they’ve become bigger, their output might get worse.
Bummer that they’ve gone downhill. Not sure what to recommend to people now.
Anker used to be my go-to recommendation for USB cables and chargers. All my Anker products have been working perfectly for 5-10 years now. But I don’t own any of their newer products.
Their products are still solid. Any brand can have issues with their batteries (other companies use the same cells), and I don’t see a reason to avoid their non-battery products like cables and chargers.
Have a gan charger from baseus and cables/usb & hdmi switch from ugreen that I’m satisfied with so far.
I’ll be agreeing with you if I face any anomalies.
