Magnetic USB connectors are a thing and can save your cables/devices not just from wear and tear (unplugging/replugging constantly) but also from cables being tripped over or otherwise pulled. Highly recommended if you’re using VR! Sadly there are no standards to these.
Are there magnetic USB-C connectors that can do USB 5Gb or even 10Gb?
There are, but are recommended against. Since they expose all the pins in a way it doesn’t happen normally in the connector. If a device is not 100% perfectly protected you might send 20V in a data line that’s expecting <1V, therefore frying something.
USB 5Gb/s uses voltages > 5V?
(I’m only talking about speed here, not USB-PD.)
No, but laptops often do :)
Bonus tip: get as many as you need, and then a couple more. Sounds like I’m some kind of salesman, but trust me. I bought some to create a simple charging station for my vr controllers. Works great. Now I want some more to charge other things with the cables I already have laying around (I had some more). Didn’t have the right adapter pieced for in my devices. (Needed usb c, only had micro b and lightning). Now, a few years after I bought them to make that charging stand thingy, they don’t sell this exact one anymore. Bummer.
Which brand/type can you recommend? I want some, but I find them hard to search for.
Especially with the amazon whatever slightly matching keywords providing bogus results.
