It does feel kind of spiteful. But honestly, it is surprisingly difficult to find USB 3 USB-C cables anyway. Most of them are USB 2 unless you spring for Thunderbolt cables.

    No they're not? At least when I check amazon or any other online retailer, USB-C cables are almost always USB 3.0 or higher. Only the ultra cheap ones are not.

    We’re talking USB-C to USB-C right?

    Do you have links for some of the ones you looked at? Because I checked a few Anker and Apple cables and they were all USB 2.0.

    It does seem to be easier to get USB 3 Type A to type C cables, but not C to C.

    I swear I have a USB C cable that charges faster oriented one way. I haven't really proved it or anything but it really does feel like it. Maybe I'm crazy. Is it possible? It's "normal" USB on the other side.
