UGREEN L524 60W USB-C to USB-C PD Fast Charging Braided Cable 1M | 3A Max, PD 3.0, 480Mbps Sync, Nylon Braid
Metal-shelled wire tested past 30,000 bends, cut to a metre for bedside, car, and backpack duty.
Condition: New
Note: price and availability are subject to change without prior notice
UGREEN L524 60W USB-C to USB-C braided charging cable is now in stock at Mascom International for KSh 800, carrying Power Delivery 3.0 support at 20V 3A, 480Mbps USB 2.0 file transfer, and a 1-metre nylon-braided body. The UGREEN L524 steps down cleanly to 45W, 30W, and 18W chargers, so a single cord serves a phone, a tablet, and a USB-C laptop. Mascom International stocks the UGREEN L524 at Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD, open Monday to Saturday, 9:00 AM to 7:00 PM. Every unit is brand new and sealed.
Most Kenyan buyers replace a charging cable two or three times a year, usually because the moulded plastic end splits where it bends against a pocket or a matatu seat. The UGREEN L524 answers that specific failure with a nylon braid rated past 30,000 bend cycles and aluminium alloy shells at both connectors. University students at Strathmore, USIU, and the University of Nairobi, field officers moving between Nakuru and Eldoret sites, and office staff who carry one bag from Westlands to Upper Hill all end up charging a phone and a laptop from the same wall socket. One cable that handles both removes the second purchase.
Unlike the unbranded cords sold cheaply across Kenya's electronics counters, the UGREEN L524 states its rated ceiling openly at 20V 3A and holds that figure under load rather than sagging after a few weeks. Users consistently report that braided UGREEN cables outlast moulded alternatives by a wide margin in daily bag-and-pocket use. At Mascom International, we're witnessing steady repeat demand for the UGREEN L524 from customers who bought one and returned for spares. Walk into our Kimathi Street shop to test the cable against your own phone and laptop, or order it for pay-on-arrival delivery anywhere in Kenya.
Common Questions About the UGREEN L524
What does 60W actually charge on this cable?
Sixty watts is the ceiling: 20 volts at 3 amps. That covers every USB-C phone sold in Kenya at full wired speed, plus tablets and lighter laptops. A Galaxy S24 moves from flat to roughly 60 percent in about 30 minutes when paired with a suitable adapter. The cable negotiates downward to 45W, 30W, and 18W chargers without any switch or setting, so one cord covers a phone, a tablet, and a work machine.
Will the UGREEN L524 charge my laptop?
Yes, provided the laptop draws 60W or less over USB-C. MacBook Air, Dell XPS 13, HP Spectre, Lenovo ThinkPad X13, and most ASUS ZenBook models sit inside that range and charge at their rated speed. Heavier machines shipping with 96W or 140W adapters still accept a charge, but slowly, and often only while asleep. Gaming laptops and mobile workstations need a 100W or 240W cable instead, which Mascom International also stocks.
Can it transfer files, or is it charge-only?
It does both. The UGREEN L524 follows the USB 2.0 standard and syncs at up to 480Mbps, moving roughly 1GB of photos or documents in under a minute. That suits phone-to-laptop backups, camera card offloads, and Android file transfer without installing anything extra. Bulk 4K video archives will take noticeably longer, since 480Mbps is a data-sync speed rather than a drive-cloning speed. Shielded wire mesh inside the jacket keeps transfers from dropping mid-copy.
Will it connect my phone to a monitor or TV?
No. This cable carries power and USB 2.0 data only, with no DisplayPort Alt Mode support, so it will not push video to a monitor, projector, or television. Samsung DeX, phone-to-screen mirroring, and laptop display output all need a video-capable USB-C cable instead. Mascom International stocks separate USB-C to HDMI cables and DisplayPort Alt Mode cords for exactly that purpose, and our counter staff will match one to your device.
How long does the braid last before it frays?
UGREEN tests the L524 past 30,000 bend cycles, which works out to well over four years at roughly 20 bends a day. The failure point on most cables is not the wire but the joint where the cord meets the connector, and aluminium alloy shells with proper strain relief spread that force instead of concentrating it. Braided nylon also resists the abrasion that shreds rubber jackets inside backpacks and glove compartments.
Is 1 metre long enough for daily use?
One metre reaches from a standard wall socket to a desk surface, a bedside table, or a car console without leaving loops of slack to tangle. It suits power banks, laptop bags, and office desks particularly well. If you charge from a floor-level socket while seated on a couch, or work in a room where the nearest outlet sits across the wall, a 2-metre cord is the better fit. Mascom International stocks both lengths.
Does it work with iPhone, Samsung, and Pixel together?
Yes. Any device with a USB-C port works, and that now includes iPhone 15, 16, and 17 series handsets alongside Samsung Galaxy S25, S24, S23, and S22 models, Google Pixel 9 through 5, iPad Pro, iPad Air, iPad mini 6, and Nintendo Switch. Households running mixed brands stop hunting for the right cable. The connectors are reversible, so plugging in beside a bed in the dark takes no aiming.
Is it safe to leave charging overnight?
Yes. Built-in protection circuitry guards against over-current, over-voltage, and short-circuit conditions, and the cable only accepts what your charger and device negotiate between themselves. Phones stop drawing current once the battery fills, so the cable simply idles. The genuine concern with cheap unbranded cords is wiring that misreports its rating and pulls more current than the conductor can carry safely. UGREEN publishes the 3A figure and builds the copper to match it.
Is KSh 800 worth paying when cheaper cables exist?
A KSh 250 cable replaced three times a year costs more than KSh 800 spent once, and the failures rarely happen at a convenient moment. Beyond lifespan, cheap cords often cap at 2A regardless of the charger, which stretches a 30-minute top-up into 90 minutes. The UGREEN L524 holds 3A and keeps holding it. Customers buying it for a laptop and phone together usually stop carrying two separate cables entirely.
Technical Specifications
Charging Output and Power Delivery Support
- Supports USB Power Delivery 3.0 at up to 60W, meaning 20 volts at 3 amps sustained.
- Steps down automatically to 45W, 30W, 18W, and 5W adapters with no manual switching required.
- Charges a Samsung Galaxy S24 from flat to roughly 60 percent within about 30 minutes.
- Handles USB-C laptops rated at 45W or 60W, covering most thin-and-light business and student machines.
- Protection circuitry guards against over-current, over-voltage, and short circuits during unattended overnight charging.
- Ceiling stays at 60W, so 96W and 140W laptops charge slowly rather than at rated speed.
- Charging speed follows your wall adapter; a 65W GaN charger reaches the cable's full output.
Data Transfer and Wired Sync
- Follows the USB 2.0 standard, moving files between connected devices at up to 480Mbps.
- Transfers roughly 1GB of photos or documents in under a minute under typical conditions.
- Handles phone-to-laptop backups, Android file transfer, and camera card offloads without extra software installed.
- Shielded wire mesh under the jacket reduces interference that causes transfers to drop mid-copy.
- Suits document, music, and photo movement rather than bulk 4K video archive migration.
- Supports wired Android Auto connections and tethering a phone's mobile data to a laptop.
Device Compatibility Across Phones, Tablets and Laptops
- Fits iPhone 15, 16, and 17 series handsets, all of which now carry USB-C ports.
- Works with Samsung Galaxy S25, S24, S23, S22, S21, S20, and Note 10 series phones.

- Charges iPad Pro, iPad Air, and iPad mini 6 tablets alongside Nintendo Switch handheld consoles.
- Compatible with MacBook Air, MacBook Pro, Dell XPS 13, HP Spectre, and ASUS ZenBook laptops.
- Reversible connectors plug in either orientation, removing the fumbling that ruins a bedside charging routine.
- Charges USB-C earbuds, power banks, smartwatches, and Bluetooth speakers from the same single cord.
Build Quality and Daily Durability
- Nylon braided jacket survives more than 30,000 documented bend tests in UGREEN factory durability testing.
- Aluminium alloy connector shells resist the flexing that cracks moulded plastic ends on cheaper cords.
- Braiding resists tangling inside laptop bags, backpacks, and car glove compartments during daily movement.
- Copes with dust on upcountry roads and humidity along the Mombasa coastal strip without corroding.
- Strain relief at both ends spreads bending force away from the solder joints inside.
- Space Gray braid hides the grime that shows within weeks on white moulded charging cables.
Cable Length, Handling and Everyday Placement
- The 1-metre length reaches a wall socket to a desk surface without leaving slack to tangle.
- Short enough for car and power bank use, long enough for bedside and sofa charging.
- Adds negligible weight and bulk inside a laptop sleeve carried on a daily commute.
- Coils flat for storage and does not hold kinks after months of repeated wrapping.
- Pairs with UGREEN Nexode chargers and power banks stocked at Mascom International in Nairobi CBD.
- Carries no video output, so keep a DisplayPort Alt Mode cord separately for monitor connections.
