preface
Not long ago, Samsung released the flagship model of the Samsung S22 series, all equipped with the "flagship" core Snapdragon 8 Gen1, the charging head network also evaluated the charging performance of the large cup S22+ for everyone, in short, the maximum charging power of 45W, the charging experience of 25W, high emotional intelligence: to avoid users changing machines to buy chargers repeatedly.
Samsung's official website has also launched a new 45W charger kit, which has multiple sets of PPS voltage gears, with a matching 5A charging cable, in order to trigger Samsung's SuperCharge that is not so Super... So is there anything superior about this data cable compared to the third-party 5A data cable? Let's start with the packaging.
Product introduction
The packaging is unremarkable, it is a simple product appearance.
The included charging cable is configured for the C2C interface, which is different from the 3A cable that comes with the S22, and is obviously thicker than a turn.
Plastic frosted terminal shell is printed with the word 5A, USB-C terminal male head is slightly residual, this era also uses splicing plugs, this cost also has to be deducted.
The length of the charging cable is unusual, reaching 181cm.
Using the POWER-Z KM002C measurement cable chip, the E-Marker is built-in, supports 100W PD charging, and the data transfer specification is USB2.0.
Wire testing
For the evaluation of the performance of the wire, there are no more than three kinds, whether it can be charged, whether it can transmit data, and whether it can transmit video signals. A little more advanced is whether to support fast charging, fast charging of transmitted data, bandwidth of transmitting video signals, etc. Let's test this data line of Samsung.
Fast charging
As a data cable that comes with the Samsung 45W Gallium Nitride charger, charging is its duty, using the Samsung 45W Gallium Nitride charger with this Samsung C2C fast charger line for the Samsung S22+ charge, the power is 9.08V 4.26A 38.74W.
With a flash pole 140W gallium nitride charger to charge the Red Devil 7 Pro, the power is 17.33V 5.09A 88.37W, and the current of 5A is also considered to run to the upper limit of the current of the cable.
With the flash pole 140W Gallium nitride charger to charge the Red Devil 6 Pro, the power of 17.27V 5.11A 88.2W once again ran to the current limit of the cable.
With a flash pole 140W Gallium Nitride charger, the Redmi Note11 Pro+ is charged, and the power is 17.54V 5.09A 89.41W.
brief summary
Samsung's data cable has been tested in terms of charging, and the measured performance in charging is indeed so, which can carry the transmission of 5A large current, and for some devices, the cable will not become a factor restricting fast charging.
Data transmission
In fact, for Samsung's fast charging line can not transmit data, the author is guilty of muttering, after all, it is a attached line, counting on supporting the charging of 5A current is enough, but since it is a test cable, the data transmission this piece must not run. Connect each end of the cable to the hard drive box and the computer with the hard drive.
The measured write speed is about 38.1MB/s and the read speed is about 39.9MB/s, which meets the data transfer speed standard of USB2.0.
For an attached data cable, USB2.0 transmission standard is a normal level, in fact, it can be understood as a gift, its primary task is fast charging, data transmission is a side business, it can at least transmit data, always better than some "only support charging" cable is much better.
Video transmission
Using a cable to connect the notebook and the monitor, the monitor cannot be successfully lit, and Samsung's C2C fast charging cable does not support video transmission.
In fact, this result is also expected, if the signal line of the transmission video is added to the online material, the price may rise, its main business is still fast charging after all, and there is no need to join the function of video transmission in front of the price.
Charging head net summary
After some evaluation, in addition to the workmanship of this splicing plug like the Micro plug five years ago, there is no difference between other aspects and the ordinary 5A data cable on the market, the built-in E-Marker chip, the transmission speed of USB2.0, there is no bright spot on the specifications, and the length of 1.8 meters is still conscientious.
And Samsung S22 series comes with a USB-C interface for USB3.0 specifications, want to transfer large files, video expansion, you need a higher specification of the data cable support, if you confuse which data cable to meet your needs, may wish to search and read the past data cable reviews.
