BRILOCEA Thunderbolt 4 Cable (6.56 ft), Support 120W Fast Charging/40Gbps Data Transfer/8K Display USB4 Cable, USBC to USBC Cable, Intel Thunderbolt Certified for Type-C MacBooks, iPad Pro,Hub,Docking

What more is there to say? Good quality, good length. Works with apple.

Bought this 1 meter Brilocea Thunderbolt 4 cable for use with several Mac computers that we use for our YT channel. We use these cables both for attaching external TB drives or doing a direct connection between two Macs. I tested this cable using an external Thunderbolt enclosure with a fast M.2 2280 drive and compared its performance against an Apple Thunderbolt cable. I achieved identical speeds (roughly 2790Mbps write and 2810Mbps read) with both cables over multiple runs using Blackmagics Disk Speed utility. This particular cable does show TB4 and the Thunderbolt lightning icon on the cable end caps. Recommended.

When I sit down at my computer for an hour in the middle of the day, I turn off my phone and plug it into the charger. Im used to seeing the charge level rise about ten percent. With this cable, it went up 28%. Im convinced its faster. I like it.

This USB4/TB cable is of good quality. Its six and a half feet long, and feels heavy-duty. The cabke itself is pretty thick, the jacket braided, and the connectors large and solid. I have tested this with my phone and cab report it easily handles super fast charging and video. While I dont currently have Thunderbolt set up, this cable is an effort at futureproofing, and I believe it will do just fine pushing large amounts of data. I do wish it came with a velcro tie, as you might not need all 6.5 feet, and it would make it easier to cable manage. I also am not sure why this (only) can handle 120w, while many of these types of cables can push up to 240w. Im not sure what the future will hold, but that seems like a big wattage gap (50% less) in a cable supposedly able to push the same 40Gbps as other 240w USB4/TB cables. Why the lack in wattage with identical data speeds? Besides this, the cable is a decent one, but I would watch your wattage needs.

I ordered two lengths these cables, 1.2m (3.94 feet) and 2m (6.56 feet). Since Amazons review system isnt permitting me to separately review the 2m version, I will be covering both in this review.

Tested with Mac studio m1 max with Samsung T7 shield SSD. The speed is as fast as the certificated Thunder 4 cables.

This has a great feel to it. Much better and thicker than other braided cords Ive purchased in the past. The length is accurate and the ends also feel sturdy and that they should hold up to good use. I was able to plug this into my Mac and run my external 4k monitor off of it without any issues. It also works great with charging my mac too.

Thunderbolt cables have the maximum compatibility with USB and Thunderbolt standards available today, so to me, it is worth the extra outlay to future proof your purchase.

Braided cable is a bit more stiff than usual braided cables, but that lines up as this is 120w rated charge cable so it should be a little thicker and stiffer braided wrapping means less risk of twisting and knots.

First impression was that the cable, while nylon wrapped, was very thick and stiff; was very surprised- May have to do with it being a Thunderbolt USB! - I’m not an expert on cables and connectors. - Also, while it’s nice and long, it’s a little short of the advertised 2 meters.
