High quality. Sustained conectivity. - Purchased 14 months ago. Cable is high quality &extremely well made. No disconnections with external SSD drives or enclosures. In fact, seems to increase reliability of many thunderbolt peripherals that ship with low quality thunderbolt cables. Review: Quality Apple cable - The one I got was genuine Apple brand. I actually ordered the wrong cable because I was in a hurry - I needed a charging cable for my 2019 MacBook Pro because my rabbit chewed through my original cable. Rabbits. This is a SHORT cable, but it does work as a charging cable and supports the high power needed for the MacBook Pro. It was less convenient because of the length, but it got me going until I got the standard 6 foot charging cable. Bonus, this one works for high speed data transfer too, in case I ever need that, and it's compact so that I can keep it in my carry bag as a backup cable. ## Features - This 0.8-meter cable supports Thunderbolt 3 data transfer up to 40 Gbps, USB 3.1 Gen 2 data transfer up to 10 Gbps, DisplayPort video output (HBR3), and charging up to 100W. - Use this cable to connect a Mac with Thunderbolt 3 USB-C to Thunderbolt 3 devices such as docks, hard drives, and displays. - You can daisy-chain up to six Thunderbolt 3 devices. - Combatible with iPad mini, iPad Pro, MacBook Air, MacBook Pro, iMac, iMac Pro, Mac mini and Mac Pro with thunderbolt ports. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B078H9VQ5V | | Date First Available | November 1, 2018 | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Item Weight | 2.56 ounces | | Item model number | MQ4H2AM/A | | Manufacturer | Apple Computer (Direct) | | Product Dimensions | 4.21 x 4.21 x 0.75 inches | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Apple - **Cable Type:** USB-C - **Connector Type:** Thudnerbolt 4, USB Type C - **Special Feature:** Braided, Data Transfer, Fast Charging, High Speed, Tangle Free ## Images ![Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) Cable (0.8m) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41N62P2xxYL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Will it’s work for I phone11 pro max** A: No, unfortunately. The iPhone 11 Pro Max uses the lightning connector. This cable is double ended usb-c and intended for thunderbolt 3 applications. **Q: Does anyone know of any Thunderbolt 3 cables that are longer than this? .8 meters is just way to short for me. Thanks!** A: See my previous answer: longest from Apple, 3 meters, costs $159 at retail **Q: Works with pixel 3 xl ?** A: Unless you specifically need Thunderbolt 3, which only some devices support, you're better off just buying a cheaper USB-C cable (same connector, but without Thunderbolt 3 support). I'm assuming the Pixel uses a USB-C connector, or you wouldn't have asked the question. **Q: Is it compatible with Nintendo switch?** A: While I didn't purchase it for Nintendo Switch use, you can do a google search "Best USB-C cables for Nintendo Switch". I'm sure you'll get a listing of what's compatible. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Long term review. High quality. Sustained conectivity. *by N***N on January 4, 2025* Purchased 14 months ago.

It works perfectly. I also have a work laptop that is HP Elitebook 830 G6. The original cable from the monitor, the Thunderbolt 3 allows both laptops to work for the monitor. Once I am off work, I plug in my personal computer. Wola. I am very happy and pleased with the performance of the monitor being able to work with both types of laptops that when I consulted the Apple Specialist, asking what I need to buy to keep a spare cable around. They let me know it is this Thunderbolt 3 cable that works for this situation. As long as there is a lighting bolt not he cable, it is a Thunderbolt 3. When I got it in the mail, I plugged it in to test, and wola! Works! I now have a spare in case the original one gives out. Its perfect! The USBC outlet on the HP laptop is 2.0, not even meant to work for anything but standard charging. Yet, the Thunderbolt 3 cable was able to transfer the data and let my monitor work with the laptop. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/59080961-thunderbolt-3-usb-c-cable-0-8m](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/59080961-thunderbolt-3-usb-c-cable-0-8m) --- *Product available on Desertcart Great Britain* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-04-29*
