I've used this cable for my Kindle Fire, cell phone and my sister's smart phone. This cable works great as far as charging and connecting to my laptop. I love the fact that I can use my kindle while it's charging.I purchased this product after the cable that came with my kindle fire-which only lasted about 3 months-stopped working...which brings me to the downside. This cable only last for about 3 months before it doesn't charge at all and I have to buy a new one.At first it works just fine and then after a few months I have to wiggle it to get the kindle to charge. After a while even that doesn't work. I don't know if it's my kindle or the usb cables themselves, but this is a serious flaw that Amazon needs to fix. It gets old having to replace a cable every 3 months or so.
