This 240W USB-C cable’s connector both rotates and bends


We should all strive to be as flexible as this cable.

Japanese accessory maker Sanwa Supply has released a new 240W USB-C cable with a flexible design that could help prevent damage, as spotted by Tom’s Hardware. The USB-C connectors on either end of the cable can rotate 360 degrees and bend from side-to-side up to 180 degrees, reducing strain on ports and minimizing bending that could eventually cause wires inside to break. The company sells a lot of its peripherals through Amazon in the US and Japan, but the new flexible USB-C cable doesn’t appear to be available there yet.
