Most Kenyan buyers replace a charging cable two or three times a year because the cheap ones fray at the connector or stop passing data within months. The Powerology Zinco Series USB-A to Type-C Cable targets that exact frustration. Office workers in Westlands and Upper Hill, university students at the University of Nairobi and Strathmore, and field staff covering Nakuru and Kisumu all need one cable that charges a phone overnight and moves files to a laptop the next morning. This cord handles both jobs without the loose, intermittent connection that kills budget cables after a few weeks of matatu travel and bag stuffing.

Unlike other electronics retailers in Kenya who stock unbranded cables with no tested bend rating, Mascom International stocks the genuine Powerology Zinco Series USB-A to Type-C Cable with a documented 15,000-bend lifespan. Buyers across Kenya tell us a single reliable cable saves more than its price in repeat purchases. Walk into our Nairobi CBD store to inspect the braided jacket and zinc alloy connectors in person, or order the Powerology Zinco Series USB-A to Type-C Cable for pay-on-arrival delivery to any of the 47 counties. You only pay once the cable reaches your hands.

The cable carries up to 3 amps of current, which works out to roughly 15 watts on a standard 5V USB-A charger. That speed tops up most Android phones overnight and adds a useful charge over a lunch break. It suits phones that draw power through USB-A adapters, including Samsung Galaxy A-series, Tecno, Infinix, and older iPhones paired with a USB-A brick. For phones that support 25W or higher USB-C Power Delivery, a dedicated USB-C to USB-C cable and PD charger will charge faster than this USB-A cord.

Yes, if you are tired of replacing cheap cables every few months. Unbranded cables at KSh 200 to KSh 400 often fail at the connector within weeks of daily matatu commutes and bag pressure. The Powerology Zinco Series cable carries a tested 15,000-bend rating and zinc alloy housings that resist the bending stress that breaks budget cords. Over a year, one KSh 1,000 cable that lasts beats three KSh 400 cables that do not. It also moves data, which most charge-only market cables cannot.

Any device with a USB-C port and any charger or computer with a USB-A port. That covers Samsung Galaxy phones and tablets, Google Pixel, Tecno, Infinix, Xiaomi, Redmi, and Oppo handsets, plus USB-C laptops, the Nintendo Switch, wireless earbuds, and power banks. The USB-A end plugs into wall chargers, car chargers, laptop ports, and desktop hubs you already own. It does not fit Lightning iPhones (iPhone 14 and earlier) or micro-USB devices, since both ends are fixed USB-A and USB-C.

Yes. The cable supports 480Mbps data transfer, the USB 2.0 standard speed. That moves photos, videos, and documents between a USB-C phone and a USB-A laptop without the charge-only limitation of most market cables. Backing up a 2GB folder of phone photos to a laptop takes a few minutes at this speed. For very large 4K video transfers you would want a faster USB 3.x cable, but for everyday phone backups, music syncing, and document moves, 480Mbps handles the job cleanly.

The cable holds a 15,000-bend rating, verified by Powerology's flex testing. The outer jacket uses tightly woven nylon braiding over the core, and both connector heads sit in zinc alloy housings rather than soft plastic. This construction resists the fraying at the connector neck that ends most budget cables. It survives being coiled into a pocket, pulled across a desk, and packed into a laptop bag for the daily Thika Road or Mombasa Road commute without the internal wires separating.

A branded cable with a published bend rating and warranty protects your phone and your wallet. Unbranded cables skip current regulation, which can overheat connectors or charge erratically. The Powerology Zinco Series cable regulates its 3A current safely and ships with a 6-month Mascom International warranty. Customers across Nairobi report that cheap cables either stop charging or stop syncing within a school term, while a tested braided cable like this one lasts through a full year of heavy daily handling.

No. The cable ships on its own without a wall adapter, which is standard for replacement charging cables. You pair it with any USB-A charger you already own, such as the brick from a previous phone, a laptop USB-A port, or a power bank. Mascom International stocks separate USB-A wall chargers and power banks if you need one. This keeps the cable affordable at KSh 1,000 rather than bundling a charger you likely already have at home or work.

The cable measures 1 meter (3.2 feet), a practical length for desk charging, bedside use, and power-bank top-ups in a bag. One meter reaches comfortably from a wall socket to a desk or bedside table without excess slack tangling. For charging from a far wall socket while using your phone on a couch, a longer cable suits better, but 1 meter covers the common cases of office desk work, overnight bedside charging, and on-the-go power-bank charging during a commute.

The Powerology Zinco Series USB-A to Type-C Cable ships in Powerology retail packaging containing the 1-meter braided cable and the product documentation. No wall charger or power adapter is included, which is standard for a replacement charging cable. Mascom International stocks compatible USB-A wall chargers and power banks separately if you need a power source to pair with the cable.

The Powerology Zinco Series USB-A to Type-C Cable carries a 6-month Mascom International warranty on manufacturing defects under normal use. Our Nairobi CBD service desk handles any warranty claim directly. Damage from cuts, pulling the cable by the cord rather than the connector, or liquid exposure falls outside warranty coverage, so handle the connectors gently during daily use.
