Best 2-in-1 USB Cables in 2021

Nomad is well-known for its myriad of quality and high-end products, and the same can be said for the Nomad Universal cable. At one end, you can switch between USB-C and USB-A, while at the other end, you have both a USB-C and MicroUSB attachment. The cable is rated for a 60W max output and is 10K Mil-Spec flex tested so that it will last for quite a while.

Being able to stay versatile with your devices is extremely important, so it makes sense for your cables to be just as versatile. This 2-pack of cables from GREATLINK comes with both a straight and coiled cable with the standard USB-A end and then a dual-MicroUSB and USB-C charging port.

This cable is what most people look for in a 2-in-1 cable: a USB-A to USB-C adapter with a micro-USB tip and both charging and syncing capabilities. Whichever Android phone or tablet you need to be charged, this cable should work with all of them. And at 3.3 feet, it hits that Goldilocks sweet spot between too long and too short.

At less than a foot, this standard USB to USB-C / Micro-USB cable may be shorter than our other picks, but longer cables can be harder to store and more prone to bendability problems. With the CableCreation cord, you'll get an estimated 10,000-bend capacity, 480Mbps data transfer speeds, and compatibility with a wide gamut of Apple, Chromebook, and Android devices.

This cheap and trustworthy cable adapter supports fast charge and rapid sync for a wide range of Apple and Android phones and tablets. You'll rarely find a 2-in-1 with Lightning capabilities or any Lightning chargers for such an affordable price. It ships in four different colors and includes a two-year warranty.

2-in-1 cables are all about reducing cable clutter, but if you need multiple multi-use cables throughout your home, SIXSIM will sell you three- or five-packs of nylon braided cables for cheap. They're a good length at six feet each, come in vibrant colors, and should be able to handle bending longer than plastic cables.

Nobody likes being tied to a wall wart with a tiny cable, and the SMALLElectric cable helps combat that with its 10-foot 2-in-1 charging cable. Along with the 3A charging speeds, the company also includes an 18-month warranty if something goes wrong.

Some folks may like that the cable ends are attached to most 2-in-1 charging cables, but there's a new wave of cables coming out. Like the JianHan cable, these cables feature magnetic tips that can be easily swapped to suit whichever device you are using.
