Under normal circumstances, the original data lines of all brands of mobile phones are made of TPE material. Compared with PVC material, the flexibility should be improved to a higher level, and the feel is more delicate, but it is as resistant to dirt as PVC, which is not the most fatal. The durability of TPE material is still insufficient, and it will break the skin if you don't pay attention.

Relatively speaking, nylon braided wire is much stronger than the above two materials, and it is more wear-resistant, not easy to bend, much cleaner than PVC or TPE, and easier to arrange. It seems that nylon braided data cable is a very good choice.

Unfortunately, at the interface of data cable, that is, USB plug and Micro USB interface of Android and Windowsphone system phones, USB Type C interface and Lightning interface of IOS system phones, skins made of alloy materials or PVC and TPE materials are still needed to protect internal wiring and circuit boards.

This also brings a huge "safety" hidden danger to nylon braided data lines. Although the whole cable is "seamless", it still can't solve the problem that the interface is easy to break.

When it comes to silicone material, many people may not have much impression and stay in silicone plastic surgery. In addition, the most common silicone is the baby nipple, which is not only durable, but also safe and easy to clean. This is the most basic feature of maternal and child products.

Accordingly, using silica gel as the sheath of data cable is far ahead of the three materials in flexibility and easy cleaning. The research shows that silica gel is chemically stable, nonflammable and has ultra-high wear resistance.

In other words, only from the material analysis, any data cable made of silica gel is much more durable than the above three materials, and it is less affected by temperature, and it can be as soft as ever even in cold winter.

So, how many data lines have you changed this year? If you were given another chance, which material would you choose?
