And if the cable isn't 240w as it claims, it can't be used with the 230w Lenovo Thunderbolt dock that is the only one that'll charge a gaming laptop. I don't think people pay attention to this stuff. To most, a cheap Chinese cable that says it'll do something is good enough even if it doesn't, which is likely.
I ordered a set to test, but then after reading the 1 star reviews and then online articles, reddit, etc. I'm not risking it. Several common complaints about the quality of the brand and a few reports of damaged batteries.

Yeah, super sketchy that a $3 chord doesn't charge a "gaming laptop." I feel like the average person blowing a couple grand on a laptop that justifies a 200w docking station can figure out how to get a better cable.
For the vast majority of people, USB-C is amazing and this cable will be fine and not "overheat your phone".
Which matters for fast charge, the charger, the USB cable or must be both?
The correct answer is all three
Both your device and the charger must agree on a charging standard, and the cable must be able to support the volts/amps
I've seen a number of cases where the the cable and charger support the necessary wattage, but limits on volt/amp combinations means less than maximal charging rates​

They're garbage.

It's only confusing, not misleading 😉
