Very good - power and PC-VR use
Fits the Quest 3S perfectly and the supplemental USB-C connector keeps the headset at 100% while in use when used in conjunction with the stock USB-C wall adapter. Very good quality lead. I personally like braided cables so I'm happy with that. The cable is relatively stiff / firm. It is flexible but not like a soft silicon cable. The Connectors are all good quality and they have been terminated well. Overall an excellent cable at a very competitive price. I did a fair amount of research before I bought it and it works perfectly. High data rate when I plug it into my PC. My motherboard has 3.1 ports for Standard USB size connections and a 2-off USB C as well and there's absolutely no bottleneck from this cable. Great for PC-VR which is probably why you are buying this and what you actually want to know. The supplementary USB-C power on the side of the cable makes it possible to use your headset at 100% all the time. It's cheap and definitely one of the good ones. Recommended.

Quest Link not working (resolved by support)
After my initial problem (review below) I was contacted by Alice in support and was sent a replacement cable. The new cable did not have the freezing problem of the first cable and has been working fine for tethered PCVR with my Quest 3. After playing for some time I quit out and found that the Quest still had 100% battery charge which is the main selling point of this cable. Very happy with the cable as well made and retains Quest charge for longer gaming sessions! Great support too. Original review: Looks well made and love the idea that it can charge and provide Quest link for sim racing at same time. However, when activating Quest link I get a weird jagged border around the screen (when looking through headset) and then the link freezes. Have tried re-plugging it in (both ends), resetting the software, and restarting PC but same results every time. I switched back to my old USB lead and all works fine. Have a decent PC with a 4070 super GPU and Quest 3. Will have to return it.

Updated cable is better than the original
So I originally refunded this cable due to a fault but they reached out to me and offered me a free updated cable for free so I agreed. I'm glad I did because this one is so much better! I can game and watch movies for hours now. It connects to my PC without any issues and it keeps a charge. The new cable is a game changer and I'm so glad I gave them another chance! I recommend them now 😊 I'll leave the original review up for transparency but know it's outdated now. Original review I brought this for my Quest 3. It worked for a couple of days and randomly stopped. It wouldn't charge the headset or connect to my PC. Unfortunately I had to get a refund which is a shame honestly. I can't recommend this product

Works well
While using the quest 3 the battery remains charged for as long as needed. Used other charging cables before, but they did not keep the headset charged. This one does.

Used to link and power Meta 3
Nice solid, smart looking cable. Great build quality and more than adequate length for my use case (seated VR driving sims). The 90 degree connection at the headset will relieve a lot of pressure on the headset input. A small cable tidy tied round the arm of the headset, further back from the usb post, can be left in place and this cable fed through it when connecting. This will take any additional strain from the usb connection. The cable will provide a trickle charge slightly prolonging battery life while connected to a pc but requires an additional usb c cable connected from a wall socket to the 'pc' end of the cable in order to actually charge your headset while playing. I don't bother with this personally, but the option is nice to have. Green power light at headset end of cable is quite dim and certainly no distraction while using the headset anyway. It is more convenient for checking the connection is good when first plugging in to the headset. The usb cable alone will steadily charge the headset while the headset is fully switched off but left connected to a pc that is powered on. I bought 2 of these cables for convenience to use in 2 different locations and managed to catch it on sale both times. Although I wouldn't hesitate at full price, if I needed a third, as it is excellent value for money compared to the meta branded version.

Good quality cable which actually charges the Quest 3 while playing, seen it consume as high as 24watts (using 100watt Anker charger).

J’ai acheté ce câble INIU Link 5 m pour avoir plus de liberté quand je charge mon téléphone, et franchement il ne déçoit pas. ✅ Il allie longueur, solidité et vitesse de charge, tout ce qu’on veut pour remplacer un câble basique. ✅ Points forts : 🔹 Longueur généreuse (5 m) : Parfait pour charger son appareil même loin d’une prise — idéal canapé, lit ou bureau. 🛋️📱 🔹 Charge rapide & stable : Mon iPhone/Android se recharge vite sans coupures. ⚡ 🔹 Matériaux robustes : Gaine solide qui résiste à l’usage quotidien, pas de pliures fragiles. 💪🔄 🔹 Connecteurs fiables : S’emboîtent bien, pas de jeu ou faux contact. 👌 ❌ Petit bémol : 🔸 Le câble est long, donc il faut un peu d’organisation pour qu’il ne s’emmêle pas. 🎗️ 👉 Conclusion : Si tu veux un câble longue portée fiable et durable, c’est un excellent choix. ✅ Bon rapport qualité-prix et pratique au quotidien. Je recommande sans hésiter ! 🚀🔌

Does what it needs to, and is sturdy. The woven outer shell of the cable ensures the cable itself can withstand use and feels solid. Great value!

Cable looks really good in terms of quality, but I can't get it to work... I followed the steps first connecting to PC then Quest 3 then Power the headset will charge and quickly, but nothing shows up on my PC. I tried connecting my Phone to it and my PC still wont detect my phone. the cable will only charge when I connect external type c power to the chip ( it will charge without connecting the cable to my PC) so I think my cable is damaged from the PC side or i am doing something wrong? So 1 Star because it charges ands looks good but i want to issue a return... Update: requested a return and ordered a new one. The new cable is functional and can transmit up to 2.9gbps so playing using the quest 3 is smooth with no issues. Charging though it sometimes charges or sometimes it will drain slowly and im noy sure why that is. One day it will stay at 100% through out the whole session and another it will slowly drop but still enough to play 5-6 hours. Yesterday i played continous 5 hours When i was done thr battery was at 28% after dtarting out at 100%. Using the original Quest 3 brick with it. Sometimes disconnecting thr charger and reconnecting will fix it but causes the usb to disconnect from the PC.
