Just wanted to let folks know that the official Samsung S View wireless charging case works with the Qifull QT10 charger. The only issue I had was with the usb port on the Qifull. The supplied cable did not work. It seems the USB port was recessed a bit further than needed so a good connection could be made. After fiddling with it a bit I got a good connection and the Note 3 started charging right away.
Hope this helps.
Thanks

About to try order one right now.
Like all of you, I sit here waiting for my S8 to arrive. In the mean time I thought I would create a thread to post about USB C Chargers and Cables.
Like most of us, I have a bunch of Micro USB chargers and cables but no USB C units.
If you have any recommendations, post them here. Any ones to aovid, post here. I will update the OP as we go.

I've always liked Choetech products, I purchased two of these so I'm set.

Also if you don't want to buy new cables just buy these micro USB to USB C adapters.

I've currently got a 6P. The charger cable in the box was type C to Type C, plus a very short A to C cable which stays in the car. I've had half a dozen cheap micro to C adapters over the past year. None of them supported fast charge or data. I ended up buying a couple of Type A to type C cables and an OTG adapter from ebay
I ordred these for now.

I want to see what will be needed for fast charge. I have the 5 port fast charge hub at my desk I belive from Akuey and want to be able to still use that. I currently plug in my Ipad, Cell phone and have 3 extra ports for my clients to use.
Ordered these ones because they're purdy https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01C2NNG12/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
these looked good and may save money

A good quality braided 5-7ft. usb-c cable would be nice.

Order the brand above. The cables are thick and the braiding is extremely nice. I've used them since My Nexus 6P
I won this one in a contest, but I have the micro usb version of it as well, and it's pretty sturdy

Are we going to need the 56k resister cables or not?

Anyone know of a good hdmi to USB C cable?
I got 2 black ones from the play store when I preordered Nexus 5x. They were pricey but the best phone cables IV seen.
Update the OP. These work but require the right charger.

Has anybody had issues with USB-C cables and their S8 Active?
I bought several S8 and an S8 Active, along with some USB-C cables and a micro-USB to USB-C adapter. The cables work OK with the S8 but not with the S8 Active. However, the adapter works OK with both.
Could it be that the S8 Active's thicker case doesn't let the cable's male plug reach all the way into the port (I've cleaned the port)?
Comparing the length of the cable's male plug to that of the adapter, I see no noticeable difference but perhaps shaving off some of the plastic base might work.
I'd hate to pay for some high-end cables and find out they don't work either.
Hey guys!
I was thinking about geting a magnetic cable for my OP5, they seem greate for beeyng very practical to use and in theory helping to expand the device's usb port life.
So with that in mind, does anyone have any ideia if...
1- Is there a 4A magnetic usb C cable compatible with dash/vooc?
and
2 - is there any chance that using a magnetic cable would cause damage to the phone?
Nope no dash charge just slow/about 1A. Don't think slow charging would kill your phone. I use em all the time and have had no problems this far.
Same here, I have a micro-usb magnetic connector for my smartach and another magnetic type-c for a tablet and both can't deliver more than 1A , but they are indeed very handy !
Hey guys just found a 4.3A cable, the problem is that its made for notebooks which means the connector is L shaped.
here is where to buy: https://www.banggood.com/Baseus-Magnetic-90-Degree-4_3A-Type-C-to-Type-C-Fast-Charge-Data-Cable-1_5M-for-S8-Xiaomi-6-Macbook-p-1179421.html

Hmm i says that it can support S8 too.
Only problem i see is that the USB C charge part needs to stay in the phone, and the other part is magnetic.
Not really convenient i think..

It won't work with Dash Charge anyway.. You need their cable with their charger otherwise it won't work,I haven't seen any 3rd party accessories that supports Dash Charge

That's kind of the whole idea that makes it convenient, not having to plug the cable. But yeah you do have to always use a case to cover it.

Ok the Charger i get but the cable, are you sure?
Is there something else about the OP stock cable besisdes the amount of juice that it can put thru? (considering that that ports a usb-c on one end and usb on the other)
I always thought that there wasn't any other cable compatible because before apple put a usb-c charging/data port on macbook there was no market for a 4A cable apart from Oppo and Oneplus.

Yes I'm sure,there is a ton of sites that explains Dash Charge. I Think they put some microchip inside so OP phones can check the compatibility and allow the 4A charge
Edit: There is some article that states that you need their cable
Does anyone know where I can buy something like this, except for usb c?
http://www.ebay.com/itm/like/112306...D711-117182-37290-0%26rvr_id%3D1289648401373&
I do NOT want the entire cable. I just want an adapter so I can use my existing cables.
Never mind, just saw the kick starter. But I only need charging.

Quoting the part of the article that talks about the cable "they won’t be compatible with the high current that’s supplied to the device".
So if the current is the only reason... than i believe it could be compatible sense it hits the 4A spot.
Compatible or not the seller/manufaturer will only ship the cable once it hits 200 pcs sold mark, which is pretty far from the current 42 pre-orders. That's too bad i was actualy willing to buy and test it if it wasn't for this.
Any news regarding this?

Necro-Reply....but has anyone tried this. Seems to be an Adapter for Magnetic connection. So what if we used this along with the Dash Charger and Cable?

Hi guys,
I've got to work today and found I've not brought my bundled USB-C - 3.5mm Headphone adapter with me. I'm thinking it's probably a good idea to get a spare or two.
Looking around it seems that not all types are compatible with all phones.
Can anyone confirm if an adapter compatible with other Huawei phones e.g. P20 will work with Mediapad M5?
I'm thinking of something like:
https://www.amazon.co.uk/Headphone-Adapter-TriLink-Huawei-Black/dp/B077FJKZMM/
Thanks for any advice!
The one I bought for my M5 8.4 was https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/USB-C-Ty...cd803a66b:m:mTROBXmtYcyehHK4G3vWF6A:rk:1:pf:0
Only used it a couple of times, but seems solid enough.

This works great if you're wanting something that sounds a bit better than stock.
Pixel 2XL USB C to 3.5mm Audio Adapter,Hi-Res DAC Chip Headphone Jack CONMDEX Type C to 3.5 Converter Compatible Google Pixel 2 Pixel 2 XL HTC U11 Essential PH-1 Phone Razer Phone https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07DXP213B/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_KywBCb00FQQAK
This one works fine, and you can charge at the same time, but it disables quick-charge (must only connect the + and - connections and not the ones used for data).
The M5 supports analog audio directly out of the USB C port, that is how the bundled USBC-3.5mm adapter works. I found that my bundled adapter makes clicking sounds if the usb connector wiggles at all.
I bought 3 of these adapters (only $1 each so I bought 3 incase any were duds) https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B07KT2F7K7/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1.
It works like the bundled adapter, it doesn't need a DAC chip as it takes the analog audio directly from the usbc port. It doesn't click like the huawei adapter, sound is excellent. 1 of 3 the connector case on the usb-c end slides off as if its not glued properly, the other 2 of 3 are perfect.
I also bought digital adapter with a built-in DAC chip, https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B07MX553YX/ref=twister_B07KSSXZ8Q?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
It works fine, sound is excellent, it drains the battery a bit faster however so I choose to use the analog adapter.
Here is a link from my previous order in France. Works perfectly well

I have a T-Mobile Samsung S8 active updated to pie one ui and I am looking for a cable to connect and mirror my phone screen to my HDTV while charging the phone. I purchased one on eBay advertised to work but bit does not. Before I drop more money on a cable I hope I can get a recommendation for one proven to work.
Thanks in advance
Here is what I use:

This is a USB c hub with power delivery and an HDMI port. I know it's not exactly what you're looking for, but I thought I'd let you know what I use. What cable did you try?
