Can this cable charge at high speed? I just got an LG G2 and it's hard to find a high speed cable.

I have a nexus 5 and it takes about an hour to charge. If I use my external battery it takes maybe 15 minutes to charge to full.

No, not really. It's a quality cable, but it is not a fast charge. I have two. I can't use them for my tablet as they don't deliver enough amperage.

It's not the fastest but Its way faster than the standard one but I'm sure there's better ones out there

search for 24 awg which is thicker than most standard cable wires, allowing better/faster conductivity, also if the data pins are disabled by manufacturer the charging will be faster---just because a product says its "fast charge" doesn't make it so lol, but if it has those two features you can pretty will trust it will do the job with more efficiently and thus faster.

I have the Verizon G2 and this charger. When it's plugged in to the included cable the G2 reports that it is "slow charging". If the charger and cable really were providing 2A then the phone wouldn't report that.

Don't know, but try a search under Amazon's site. I have the G15, and use an off brand cable (cost around $6) and that works just fine.

Yes! You can charge any device that uses the Qi wireless charging standard. The LG G2 most certainly can be charged using this charger!I would use a case, however. The device may slide around or spin on it. Any phone with a smooth back might spin on it, and cause some minor scractches on the back of the device.

This cable is actually made for motorola phones but, I have been using it on my HTC mytouch 4g slide and it is way faster than the charger my phone came with. I just tried it on my Samsung Galaxy S4 and I get the same fast result, I just bought two more of them for the car charger. I'm guessing it should be even better for an actual motorola phone.

Yes it can. It's a USB to micro-usb which is the standard for Samsung phones. This is a "charge only" cable and will not transfer data from the phone to another device, e.g. Computer. However, this is the best cable I've ever used and Mediabridge makes great products with good support. I added this cable to a 20 watt/4.2 amp phone charger and my Note 2 charges super fast - at least 50% battery in 45 minutes or less. This charge only cable also allows you to use Apple standardized phone chargers to charge non -Apple phones at full speed. Just make sure you get the right cable for your needs, but I highly recommend Mediabridge stuff.

The cable is only about 25cm (less than a foot) long.But that is part of the concept to keep electrical resistance low. I have tried other, longer cables, and they reduce the power reaching the device by up to 50%! The fast charge cable does exactly what it should do: bring as much power as possible to the device.It's not meant for woring with the device while charging, and it won't allow data transfer either. It's just there for fast charging, nothing else. And that's what it does.

Not exactly. Any USB-A to USB micro B cable will work. Some of those cables can be used to both charge and transfer data; those will charge slower than cables designated for charging only.

No, that would be a function of the unit being charged, but I'm not sure there is a danger of overcharging with phones, etc. This unit is not as strong and , therefore, as fast as your regular USB cable from a wall plug.

I have a LG G2 (T-Mobile). My old charging cables did not charge the phone, but this one does.

Yes it comes with one cable regular usb to couple different adapters I use the micro usb for my phone , I've charged it using a wall plug but it only fully chargers when I charge it via computer usb port but I bought more its worth it I can charge my htc EVO LTE twice with it

Don't know what you've looked into so far, but some initial thoughts: 1) although the charger provided may be 2 or 2.1 amps, is the GS4 itself actually rated to charge at that speed, or does it perhaps max out at a lower rate? 2) good you tried different cables, those are always a likely bottleneck - btw, the original samsung cable isn't particularly good for charging, I got higher charging amps out of monoprice and other 3rd party cables. 3) if battery is near full charge, most phones will step down to a lower charging rate - try with a fairly empty (eg 50% or less) battery to see what happens. 4) if you have another device, ideally a power-hungry tablet, see how many amps those will pull on the same chargers and cables.

No, it's not a charge cable. and will not work with another adapter. it's a OTG cable, with this OTG cable, connect USB flash drives, U-disk, keyboards, mice and more to your phone. The transfer rate of USB 3.0 hard drive up to 40-60M/s Smays

I don't know the answer to your question. What I can say is this cable seems to take more time to charge phone/tabs and also I get warnings at time that I have too many apps running to properly charge the phone/tab all at the same time. That's when I'm browsing or gaming for example while plugged in. I believe these issues may be due to the length of this cable though I can't say for sure, this is just my observation.

It may depend on the phone. But I have a Galaxy S4 and it charges very quickly. But my friend has a older HTC and it does not charge at the 2.1 AMP rate. hope this helps.

Because this cable is a charge-only cable (no data lines) it will provide the maximum charging current...how much that is depends on what the charger (plug) provides and what your phone will accept. On my Nokia 928 this charges MUCH (3x) faster than a data cable in the same setup of charger plug and phone. Also the cable is very well made, sturdy and latches positively into the phone micro USB slot.
