Mine did which is why I don’t buy those OMG SIX FOOT LONG BUY THIS FUCKING CABLE BITCH ITS SIX FEEEEET - um, those super long cables. I noticed when I used a normal charger it felt like my phone charged in like 2 minutes. So I buy a new regular length charger and it’s lasted over a year now.

Another thing about those long ass chargers is they stop working after like a week from what I experienced. It’s like they put all the effort into telling you HOW FUCKING LONG THEY ARE?! BRO SIX. FUCKING. FEET. FUCK YOU that they put no effort into what’s in them six feet

You need to look at the wire gauge. Cheap cables will be thin, thus higher resistance. Iirc the usb specs are between 28awg to 20awg. So you need to look for 20awg for charging.

Im just talking about cables tho. Never buy chargers that dont have a separable cable. Apple ass garbo quality concept to make hardwired chargers.

The charging speed just depends on the power rating of the charger + length of cable + power input limit of the phone.
