The only cables I buy are Ugreen. They do no break after a week, come in multiple lengths, and they don't lie about specs.
A 100W 1m charging cable, for example, retails here for 13$, or 10$ when you buy from Aliexpress/Evay/Amazon via their official store.
I feel you. The cable, adapter and usb hub market is fucking atrocious. Specifications are often inaccurate or insufficient. I've had so many headaches because of this, but at least we have a 14-day obligatory return policy in the EU.
