Re:Anker Powerline: Kevlar fiber reinforced MicroUSB cables by nmcfarl on Friday November 20, 2015 @10:23AM (#10601583)
I've got a few of these Anker Kevlar cables. I purchased them because my USB cables most frequently fail by the cable fraying where it enters the USB port connector, and I was hoping these would protect that connection more.

The cables do seem to be significantly less bendable than your standard Apple, or Amazon Basic cables which impedes high angle exits from the port they are plugged into, and that gives me hope that these cables actually will have a longer mean time to failure for me. We'll see.
