Where does a right-angle USB-C cable work best?

Crong has launched right-angle ArmorLink cables. The connector guides the cable along the device, which can make a phone easier to hold while charging.

On a laptop, a right-angle plug can help route the cable closer to the edge of the desk. Check which way the cable points when plugged in and how much room there is around the port.

If your phone has a thick case, check the opening around the charging port too. The plug needs enough clearance to seat fully.

Which cable length should you choose?

The right-angle Armor Link shown here is 1.5 m long. The catalogue also lists a black 4.8 m version. Choose a length by measuring the actual route, especially if the socket is under the desk or on the opposite side of your laptop. If you hold a phone in landscape orientation, check that the cable points away from where your hand rests.

Both versions are listed as USB-C to USB-C, with up to 60W USB Power Delivery and up to 5 Gb/s data transfer. If your laptop needs more power, choose a cable and charger that meet its specifications. When transferring files, check the capabilities of the port and the connected device as well.
