This USB-C cable can rotate 360 degrees for optimal cable management
USB-C was a great step forward, removing the awkward "try to plug in the cable, doesn't fit, rotate 180 degrees, still doesn't fit" dance, but cable management is still a pain. If you wish your cables didn't stick out at awkward angles and could rotate to fit your needs best, one Japanese company has your back—with a catch.
So whilst it will deliver 240W of charging power, actual data transfer rates are stuck at USB 2.0 rates. I can see that data throughput is going to be more sensitive than power delivery. And right now it is only available from their website.
Still, let's hope this idea takes off and improvements can be made.
