Windows 11Why Apple's Thunderbolt 4 Pro Cable Is So Expensive, $129
This cable has 40 Gb/s data transfer rate and 100 W charging for a connected MacBook Pro or MacBook Air and costs $129 for the 1.8m long version and $159 for the 3m version.
Basically, the design of the Thunderbolt 4 Pro cable is nothing special with a diameter of 5mm, covered with parachute fabric to help prevent tangling and more durable.
Therefore, this price is considered too high, even some users consider it unreasonable.
Below is a video dissecting the Thunderbolt 4 Pro cable of the YouTube channel ChargerLAB to help users see part of the reason the price of this cable is so high.
The Thunderbolt 4 Pro cable is intricately designed and made with premium materials, as well as a complex manufacturing process.
In addition to the waterproof and dustproof textile, the Thunderbolt 4 Pro cable is protected by a layer of flexible elastomer (TPE). Inside is a coaxial cable with 19 wires. Six of these wires are copper power supply cables, two of which take over the USB 2.0 connection, allowing the cable to be backwards compatible with the Thunderbolt 3, USB 3, and USB 2 standards. Many of the wires inside the cable are silver and copper plated. pure.
The connector is protected by black hard plastic and a high-strength copper sleeve. Inside the connector is an Intel chip that is responsible for signal reproduction and noise reduction.
ChargerLAB said that Apple Thunderbolt 4 Pro is very well built with high-quality materials to increase durability, less interference, and stable signal transmission. This is the best cable available today for creatives who need to handle large amounts of data.
If the Apple Thunderbolt 4 Pro cable is too expensive and not suitable for you, users can look to Apple's cheaper alternative, the 1.8m Thunderbolt 4 cable for only 40 USD. Of course, Thunderbolt won't have Apple's premium materials and designs.
