2m is a decent length for a cable (much longer than the one the device came with, too), and this cable charges my device just as fast, so no issues there. Nice tight connector to the device (also better than the cable it came with). Definitely worth the $12 this one cost. Especially when compared to another chain store - bought a similar cable, and the connector housing came off on that one, then had the same issue with the replacement as well. Have had ZERO issues with any of the other Tech Inc cables I've bought (RCA to jack, HDMI braided cable, jack to jack, 4 port USB Hub, etc). Good guarantee period as well.
