The UGREEN US535 240W USB-C to USB-C Cable is now in stock at Mascom International for KSh 1,700, sold from our counter at Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD. The UGREEN US535 supports USB Power Delivery 3.1 at up to 48 volts and 5 amps, which works out to 240 watts of charging headroom. A built-in E-Marker chip tells the charger and the device exactly how much current the wire can carry. Data moves at 480Mbps, copying a 1GB video file in roughly 30 seconds. Every UGREEN US535 arrives brand new and sealed in UGREEN retail packaging.
Most Kenyan buyers end up with four charging leads that each do one job badly. One handles the phone, one came with the laptop, one lives in the car, and none of them charge anything at full speed. The UGREEN US535 collapses that pile into a single wire. Software developers, architects, videographers, medical practitioners moving between clinics, and university students carrying one bag between lectures all get the same result: a Dell XPS charged at the office, a Samsung Galaxy S25 topped up during a matatu ride home, and a Nintendo Switch refilled overnight from the same cord.
Unlike traditional electronics retailers in Kenya, Mascom International stocks the UGREEN US535 alongside the 65W, 100W and 145W chargers that actually push it to its rated speeds, so buyers leave with a matched pair instead of a guess. Users consistently report that unbranded leads bought from street stalls cap laptop charging near 20W and start fraying at the connector within three months. The UGREEN US535 is rated for more than 10,000 bend cycles. Walk into our Kimathi Street store to test one against your own laptop before you pay, or order for delivery to any of Kenya's 47 counties.
Common Questions About the UGREEN US535 240W USB-C to USB-C Cable
Does the UGREEN US535 really carry 240W, or is that just marketing on the packaging?
It genuinely carries 240W, and the E-Marker chip inside proves it to your charger. USB Power Delivery 3.1 reaches 240 watts by raising voltage to 48V while holding current at 5A. The chip reports that rating during handshake, so the charger unlocks the higher tiers instead of defaulting to 60W. Your actual speed is set by the lower of three limits: the charger, the cable, and the device. With the UGREEN US535 the cable is never the bottleneck.
Will the UGREEN US535 charge my MacBook, HP or Lenovo laptop properly?
Yes, for any laptop that charges over USB-C. UGREEN's own testing brings a MacBook Pro to 88 percent in under 35 minutes, and a MacBook Pro 16-inch to full in about 60 minutes on a matching charger. HP Spectre, HP EliteBook, Dell XPS 13, Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon, Yoga, ASUS ZenBook, Huawei MateBook and Chromebook models all draw their rated wattage. Laptops with a barrel-pin power socket instead of USB-C charging cannot use this cord, so check your port first.
Can I use the same cord for my phone, or is it only for laptops?
The same cord handles both, which is the point of buying it. An iPhone 16 Pro Max, iPhone 15, Samsung Galaxy S25, Google Pixel 9 or Tecno Camon all negotiate their own safe wattage through the E-Marker chip, so a phone pulls 25W or 45W rather than being force-fed 240W. UGREEN measures an iPhone 15 reaching 85 percent in 35 minutes on a suitable charger. Nintendo Switch, Steam Deck, iPad Pro and USB-C power banks work the same way.
How fast does the UGREEN US535 transfer files between devices?
The UGREEN US535 syncs at 480Mbps, which is the USB 2.0 standard rate. In practical terms that moves a 1GB file in roughly 30 to 40 seconds. This suits phone backups, moving documents to a laptop, pulling photos off a camera, and firmware updates. If you routinely shift 4K footage folders running into hundreds of gigabytes, a USB4 or Thunderbolt cable moves data far faster, and Mascom International stocks those separately. For charging plus everyday file moves, 480Mbps is enough.
Does the UGREEN US535 support connecting my laptop to an external monitor?
No. The UGREEN US535 does not carry video output or monitor extension, and no amount of adapter juggling changes that. It is built for charging and USB 2.0 data only. Buyers who need to drive a second screen from a laptop over USB-C should ask our team for a DisplayPort Alt Mode cable, a USB-C to HDMI lead, or one of the UGREEN Revodok docking stations we stock. Confirming this before purchase saves a return trip to Kimathi Street.
Is the UGREEN US535 tough enough for daily commuting around Nairobi?
The braided jacket survives more than 10,000 bend tests, and the connector housings are aluminium alloy rather than moulded plastic. That matters because most cables die where the wire meets the plug, after months of being coiled into a bag, yanked from a wall socket, and squashed under a laptop on a boda boda. A 250D fibre core resists splitting. The included strap keeps the cord coiled so it stops snagging on keys and chargers inside your bag.
Do I need a specific charger to reach the full 240W with this cord?
Yes, the charger sets your ceiling. A 20W phone adapter gives 20W no matter which cord you use. To pull real laptop speeds you need a Power Delivery charger rated 65W, 100W or higher, and for the top tiers a PD 3.1 unit supporting 28V, 36V or 48V output. Mascom International stocks UGREEN Nexode chargers from 45W to 300W and the PB205 145W power bank. Our staff will match the right adapter to your device.
Which lengths and colours does Mascom International stock?
The UGREEN US535 comes in 1-metre and 2-metre versions, finished in space grey. The 1-metre length suits desks, bedside charging and power bank use in a bag, where slack cord just tangles. The 2-metre version reaches from a wall socket to a sofa or a bed, and works better for shared office desks and lecture halls where sockets sit far from seats.
Why buy the UGREEN US535 from Mascom International rather than a cheaper street cable?
Because a KSh 300 cable that limits your laptop to 20W and dies in ten weeks costs more over a year than one that lasts. Counterfeit cables also skip the E-Marker chip and the safety resistors, which is how phones get damaged during charging. Mascom International sells the UGREEN US535 from a registered store with a physical address you can walk into, backed by a 6-month warranty and pay-on-arrival delivery countrywide. You inspect the cord before any money changes hands.

Build Quality and Daily Durability
- Aluminium alloy connector housings resist the crushing and bending that destroys moulded plastic plugs first
- Nylon braided jacket rated beyond 10,000 bend cycles in UGREEN testing, covering years of daily coiling
- 250D fibre core resists fraying and splitting at the stress point where wire meets connector
- High-purity copper conductors with triple shielding hold charging speeds steady over the cord's full length
- Tangle-resistant weave keeps the cord flat in a laptop bag instead of knotting around keys and chargers
- Space grey finish hides handling marks better than white cables, which discolour quickly in dusty conditions
Safety Circuitry and Device Protection
- 56KΩ resistors regulate conduction and guard connected devices against electrical damage during charging
- E-Marker chip matches current to what the device requests, preventing over-delivery to smaller batteries
- Short circuit protection cuts the connection if a fault develops in the charger or the wall socket
- Over-current handling matters during Kenya's voltage fluctuations and the surges that follow a blackout restore
- Certified to the USB-IF 240W specification, unlike unbranded cables that claim high wattage without the chip
Length Options, Finish and Handling
- Available in 1-metre and 2-metre lengths, letting buyers match cord length to desk or sofa distance
- 1-metre version suits power bank pairing inside a bag, where extra slack simply tangles
- 2-metre version reaches wall sockets in lecture halls, hotel rooms and shared offices where outlets sit far away
- Reusable strap included for coiling the cord, keeping it tidy in backpacks and camera bags
- Reversible USB-C connectors on both ends plug in either orientation, in the dark or under a desk
- Weighs little enough to carry as a spare alongside your existing charger without noticing the difference
