PEAKLIFT's cables & connectors lineup sits within the broader category mid-tier; price and specs are the deciding factors over brand loyalty here.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long is this coiled USB C cable when stretched?

Unstretched, the coil is about 12 inches (1 ft). Its usable stretched length is 1.5 to 2 feet, which suits front-seat use. It is not long enough for back-seat passengers.

Does it work with wired CarPlay and Android Auto?

Yes. The cable carries data at 480Mbps as well as 3A charging, so it can connect a USB-C phone to a car's USB-A port for wired CarPlay or Android Auto.

Will it plug into a USB-C port in my car?

No. It is a USB A to USB C cable, so the car or charger end needs a USB-A port. If your car only has USB-C ports, you need a USB-C to USB-C cable or an adapter.

Which phones and tablets is it compatible with?

The manufacturer lists iPhone 15 and 16 models, iPad Air 4, iPad mini 6, MacBook Pro, Chromebook, Galaxy S23 Ultra, Google Pixel 3, Huawei P30 Pro and other USB-C devices.

Is there a warranty on the PEAKLIFT cables?

PEAKLIFT offers 12 months of after-sale customer service for quality-related issues. Check the product listing for current coverage details and how to make a claim.
