Satechi Offers Half Off Select USB-C Cables in Early Prime Day Promotion
Satechi is running a limited-time sale on some of its USB-C cables, offering a 50% discount when shoppers use a promotional code at checkout. According to CNET, the deal is available directly from Satechi's online store and ends tonight. The promotion is being positioned as an early Prime Day offer.
Deal Details
The discount applies to select cables. CNET reports that the code S3KZUUN3 is required at checkout for the reduced price. Alternatively, shoppers ordering directly from Satechi can use the code IPHONE18CABLE to get the same deal. No further specifics on exclusions or regional availability were provided in the source material.
Featured Cables
Two specific cables are highlighted in the promotion:
240-watt USB-C cable: Originally $25, now $13. It is 3.3 feet long and features a braided design for durability and anti-tangle properties. It comes in a purple color option.
OntheGo Lanyard Cable: Normally $30, now $15. It offers 60-watt charging, is 4.9 feet long, and has a braided cord that can double as a lanyard when attached to an iPhone. It is available in three colors.
CNET notes that the sale includes additional cable options beyond these two, with variations in length, color, and other features.
Broader Context
The USB-C cable market has many options, and CNET advises choosing cables from trusted brands. Besides Satechi, the article mentions Anker as another trusted brand, noting that two 6-foot Anker cables rated for 60 watts are currently available for $10 at Amazon. That rating means they can also charge a MacBook, according to CNET.
Who Might Be Interested
The sale could appeal to anyone needing extra USB-C cables, particularly those who have recently purchased a new iPhone or are planning to buy one. However, the source does not provide independent testing or detailed performance comparisons for the Satechi cables. The recommendation appears to be based on the brand's reputation and the discounted pricing.
Important Considerations
The promotion ends tonight, so interested buyers would need to act quickly. The discount codes are provided by CNET, and it is unclear whether they are case-sensitive or have other restrictions. Potential buyers should verify the codes work before completing a purchase.
As with any deal, it's wise to confirm the specifications meet your needs, especially regarding charging wattage and cable length. The 240-watt cable is suitable for high-power devices, while the 60-watt lanyard cable is more suited for phones and smaller laptops.
