At PCWorld we've had experience using tons of USB-C cables and can say with confidence that not all of them are the same. There can be big differences in the quality of a cable's construction and how it performs, whether you're talking about charging or transferring data.
My hands-on evaluation of numerous cables — ranging from the biggest, most-recognizable brand-names to the cheapest of the cheap — has revealed some clear winners.
Why you should trust me: PCWorld has been testing hardware since the 1980s and I've been poking and prodding PC components since I cracked open my Commodore VIC-20 in junior high school to see why it stopped working (who uses aluminum-coated cardboard that frays as an RF shield? Commodore, that's who). I've also been a professional journalist for more than three decades and started my stint at PCWorld as an intern in 1993.
For my USB-C cable reviews, I don't trawl consumer reviews like some "reviewers" — I purchase the cables retail and personally test each one, examining the resistance, how they are physically wired, and the accuracy of the embedded eMarker (if it has one). I then performance test them where appropriate for charge rates, transfer rates, and display support. My picks of the best USB-C cables below are separated into two groups: those cables that are best for charging, and those best for both charging and fast data transfer.

These services also include cloud-based DVRs, so you can record your favorite shows (not to mention skip through the commercials when you play them back). In many cases, they provide the only means of watching specific pay TV channels without cable.
All that said, live TV streaming services have been getting more and more expensive, and in some ways they won't be exactly like what you had with cable or satellite. Our top picks will help you avoid overpaying and get the TV features you most care about.
