Macworld Apple Thunderbolt 4 Pro 1m Cable View Deal (function () { document.querySelector("#sticky-promo-block a").addEventListener("click", function(e) { const debug = document.location.host.search(/lndo.site|go-vip.net/) !== -1; const text = this.closest("#sticky-promo-block").querySelector("p.promo-title").textContent; const data = { event: "stickyConversionUnitClick", eventCategory: "Sticky Conversion", eventAction: "Click", eventLabel: text }; if(debug)console.log("Sticky Conversion CLick - pushing to dataLayer: ", data); dataLayer.push(data); return true; }); })(); You might think all USB-C cables are the same, but they’re not. And today’s deal might look like any old Apple USB-C cable, but it’s actually one of the fastest you can buy, and Woot is selling them for a mere $37 each, an absolutely fantastic saving of $22 and the best price we’ve ever seen. This is the cable Apple made for super-fast connections. It supports Thunderbolt 3, Thunderbolt 4, and USB 4 with data transfers up to 40Gbps. If you’re not pairing it up with USB-4 devices, it scales back to USB 3 speeds of up to 10Gbps. The cable can also handle video output and charges at up to 100W. Basically, this one simple cable can connect an M5 MacBook Air or MacBook Pro to a Studio Display or Pro Display XDR, power it, and move files at full speed, all at once. Of course, just because Apple made this cable, it doesn’t mean you can’t use it with non-Apple gear. Compatibility is broad, as it will work with Mac, iPad, docks, external hard drives, and iPhone 15 Pro, as well as pretty much any other TB4 devices. Apple cables rarely see discounts like this. At $36.99, this is a reliable, long-lasting upgrade that handles the connections that matter most. Woot deals are only available for a short time, or until stock runs out, so you’d better hurry up. Since Woot is an Amazon company, your Prime benefits transfer over, so you could get free shipping on your order.06:37 pmHulu app will be shut down after Disney+ transition, per leaked file
