Finding super long charging cables that will save you from falling off your bed at night is fairly easy these days, but sometimes you want a super-short one for plugging into nearby port? They can be surprisingly expensive, but but USB-C cable from Beats is just 8 inches long, and today you can get it for $7.60 instead of its usual $19, an impressive 60 percent savings. It’s the perfect cable length to use if you’re charging your earbuds off your phone or a power bank, or just don’t want a long cord snaking around your desk.
This cable is tiny on purpose, which is great. At 8 inches long, it’s perfect to keep in your jacket pocket, a travel pouch, or your car’s console. If you have a designated phone spot just by the USB port in your car, as I do, a long cable just gets in the way.
Don’t let the size fool you because this short cable supports up to 60W, so it’ll still fast-charge phones, tablets, and other USB-C gear, including your Beats earbuds or AirPods. It can also handle data transfer at USB 2.0 rates, which is great if you also need to quickly move some files around.
For $7.60, this Beats USB-C cable is an easy pick if you want a compact, fast, travel-ready cable. So go grab one while it’s still on sale.
