There are hundreds of cables. Swissten Soft Silicone deserves your attention for several reasons. The manufacturer has opted for unusually soft silicone, a short length ideal for the automotive environment, and at the same time did not skimp on the parameters that determine everyday comfort when charging the phone and transferring data. How does it perform in practice?
Construction and processing
Instead of the classic rigid PVC, the cable feels almost like a gel. The soft silicone does not break, does not form memory bends and, most importantly, does not knot when placed in the car compartment or backpack pocket. The manufacturer promises high resistance to bending and after several weeks of testing, I can confirm that even after hundreds of bends in the socket and disconnection from the phone, the cable is without signs of wear. On the table, a forty-centimeter cord might seem limited, but in the car it is a perfect compromise. The cable is just enough from the USB port to the phone holder on the dashboard, and excess loops do not twist or get tangled under the gear lever.
