New Apple Watch USB-C Cable: A Perfect Travel Companion—At a Price
🔌 Charge Two Devices with One Cable
Nomad has introduced a new Universal Cable for Apple Watch, designed to power up two devices simultaneously. Whether it’s an iPhone, Apple Watch, iPad, or even a MacBook Pro, this 1.5m Kevlar-braided cable aims to simplify charging on the go.
⚡ Smart Design for Maximum Convenience
One end of the cable features a USB-C connector, compatible with power adapters, laptops, and other USB-C devices. The highlight, however, is on the other end—a built-in Apple Watch charging puck just before the second USB-C connector. This eliminates the need for extra attachments, offering a seamless and clutter-free charging experience.
🚀 100W Fast Charging Capabilities
The cable delivers 100W of power, meaning it can:
✅ Fast-charge an iPhone at full capacity
✅ Provide 92W to a MacBook Pro while still charging an Apple Watch or AirPods
✅ Fully power up a 16-inch MacBook Pro (with a high-wattage adapter)
💰 Premium Convenience Comes at a Cost
While the Nomad cable cuts down on clutter—especially for travelers—it has its drawbacks. Data transfer speeds are capped at USB 2.0 (480Mbps), making it more suitable for charging rather than file transfers.
Most notably, the price is a hefty $100, making it significantly more expensive than standard USB-C cables.
📌 Is It Worth It?
If you value efficiency and minimalism, this cable could be a game-changer. But if you don’t mind carrying an extra cable, the high price may be hard to justify.
