New $16 240W omnidirectional USB cable orients to your device not vise versa
Sanwa launches $16 USB-C cable with a rotating plug, 240W power, and USB 2.0 speed.

Sanwa Supply has unveiled the 500-USB090 USB-C cable, sold for ¥2,580 (about $16) exclusively in Japan for now. A standout feature is its rotating plug, which can rotate 180 degrees vertically and 360 degrees horizontally, easing the charging of various devices without fixed positioning restrictions.
The 500-USB090 supports 240W power delivery, facilitating quick charging for devices such as phones, tablets, and MacBooks. However, its drawback lies in its data transfer speed, only offering USB 2.0 with speeds up to 480Mbps, indicating its primary role as a power cable rather than for data-heavy tasks.
Despite the 240W power capability being rare until more widespread adoption of USB4 2.0 and Thunderbolt 5, the introduction of such a cable suggests evolving tech trends. As other companies like Elecom and Apple adopt advanced protocols and standards, products such as Sanwa's cable hint at future universal speeds and capabilities.
