Anyone here interested in buying a USB-C to USB-A Male Data Cable

[Nishant]

The cable (Google certified ones) aren't available in India yet. I am planning to get this from Amazon.com via iShopinternational or iBhejo.

Amazon.com: Type C, iOrange-E™ 6.6 Ft (2M) Braided Cable with Reversible Connector for New Macbook 12 inch, ChromeBook Pixel, Nokia N1 Tablet, Asus Zen AiO and Other Devices with Type C USB, Black: Cell Phones & Accessories

Getting a single order seems to be costly. iShop sent me a quote for ₹1.7k. If anyone is interested in getting this cable for their USB-C devices we can order multiple and share the shipping/custom cost. iShop sent me a quote for ₹4k for 3 units. Let me know if anyone's interested.

there's also a Small Adapter like thing which is ULTRA cheap and will work with any Micro USB Cable you may have.

I am using it on my LeTv 1s, along with my dependable microUSB cable for a month now, no Issues
and I keep 1 of those in CAR, 1 with Power-Bank so I am able to connect my USB C Type phone with any available cable around.

Just remember... A badly designed converter would eventually fry your phone or your chargers.

Here is a recent example from news on the risks of buying products from little known companies.

The worst gadget ever supplies mains power over USB

Ya I know, cheap ones can be very risky

Also I read someone from Google fried their phone when they tried it with after market cable.

He fried his Chromebook Pixel...
