Apple now selling 1M USB-C Apple Watch charging cable

Rather than the standard two-meter USB-A magnetic Apple Watch charging cable that we're used to, the Apple Store now sells two varieties of shorter USB-C charging cables. The shorter cable length is more appropriate for use with desktop or laptop computers, allowing users to charge their Apple Watch without worrying about an excessive amount of cable cluttering their workspace.

The USB-C connection means that the charger is compatible with all Mac models that feature a Thunderbolt port. Additionally, the charger is compatible with the iPad Pro 11-inch, as well as the third-generation 12.9-inch iPad Pro.

The charging cable is compatible with all series of Apple Watch, including the newly announced Apple Watch Series 5 models.

The new one-meter magnetic Apple Watch charger can be purchased directly from Apple's website for $29 or purchased in your local Apple store as early as Friday, Sept. 13.
