It is a bit expensive I agree, especially since it doesn't even do data transfers (pure charging only). It's even an issue for me with the stand I use (have to flip the tablet upside-down).

Overall, I guess it does its intended purpose (charge faster than USB, trip-safe) though. Plus I don't have to switch my USB cord between my computer and charger anymore :)
[Nexus 10 Accessories] samwheat:
It s a trick .

Samsung waits for this phantom company to make money from a simple wire 1 m long with 2 magnets and after they will come with the original amulet that will save out devices from hungry ....

Disrespect for buyers that is ... My humble oppinion

They give to you a diamond that needs to be polished and they throw you away in a lions cage to look for the polish tool . Unnoficial cases that are quality problematic and are expensive and expensive pogo cable ...
[Nexus 10 Accessories] lKBZl:
I prefer this than hold the Nexus 10 with my hand to watch movies and/or if it falls, it breaks. Respect.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] scooterboy5:
I don't think the price is unreasonable at all. We are not a huge market, the startup costs are the same whether they make 5 cables or 5000. It's not just "cost of materials". Someone has to design it, prototype it, test it, and work with a company to manufacture it. None of that is free. They have to sell {X} number of units before they even break even.

Hell, I'm just glad somebody did it.

A one-time cost of $20 for a cable that charges faster and quickly connects and disconnects? I didn't hesitate.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] samwheat:
I paid enough on a device that doesnt meet the requirements that was espected from tons of comercials .

I paid for a brand called samsung ...

And i get samsung + phantom company pogo + and many others company that i dont trust for findung a good case .

You are getting to the apple price like this but you are in a jungle that may trick you with bad products ruining your device without know it it . and eventualy spend money for repairs and buy another and another one .... Beacuse if you drop the device because of faulty case ... Samsung will not fix theyr product ...

If you are getting one bad cable for charging and brick your nexus no one will pay for this .

Thats why i look for original wgen its my money made with hard work . i expect to be respected by those who i pay them . thatrs why others loose in front of apple .
[Nexus 10 Accessories] jonstrong:
Sounds like some serious frustration re the N10; we all have different expectations, but I must say that I'm personally thrilled with my N10.

Re advertising - they hardly promote this device at all. What ads do you find deceptive?

I personally find the Nexus 10 to be superb right now. Sure, a couple more OEM accessories would be nice. But if that was a huge concern, it might have been prudent to check availability before buying the tablet.

As nice as genuine Apple accessories might be, you often pay a huge and unnecessary premium for them. A third party market always benefits consumers. As an Apple owner, would you avoid iHome products because of the "hidden" risk of unknowingly damaging your ipad, ipod or iPhone? If so, you're missing out on some great products. It only takes a bit of homework to weed out bad third party products from the good.

The Pogo cable is pricey right now because it's new and there's no competition. But it's a known item, no weird risky electronics, and it works quite well.

Re cases: sure, more would be nice, but there really are several to consider now. The Moko slim multi angle in genuine leather is $21 US, and is superb. At the high end you have Noreve, SFBags, PDair and more.

Sorry you're so disappointed. But this thread really ought to stick to the OP topic... The Pogo Cable.

I personally love the cable. My N10 charges faster, no risk of damaging the micro USB port from using it too frequently, I can easily connect the Pogo connector in the dark by feel. If it were a bit cheaper I would buy several.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] samwheat:
The moko case its not available in my country in europe . if i order i would pay double or triple due to my taxes .

The pogo cable its new after 5 month of release of the device .

The apple product are original and goid quality and you know what are you buying . not trying many many variant and eventualy pay more .

The reviews about the nexus where saying that the product last 7 hours of screen on net browsing . mine abd many others last 4 5 hours .

The customer care its shame from google and mske you feel like a orfan with an orfan product if you have a problem .

Search the forum for more .... About this loved product . its a good product but for me its a dissapointment investment and i have right to say my oppinion about it . if you are not agree ... Write to google to make us happy , those who have problems and we will .

I want more care about me as a client . i paid money for this and my hdmi not working , my screen look like **** at night , my battery last littlke that i neet to wire it to the charger and they call it portable , i want a pogo charger that haves samsung name on it like apple has , i want a case that use the magnets that are hidden in that cruncky case and not one that are damage my screen or the case .

550 dollar for a battery and a motherboard with a screen . all have defects . wtf

Im serious with my money because i worked for it . not have them from my papa or momy .

I want respect from samsung and google
[Nexus 10 Accessories] scooterboy5:
Sounds like you should sell it and get something you like better. You're obviously very unhappy with it.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] samwheat:
We should all ask for more ... We are too permisive with giants like them who have the power to do things that we like .

If we are ok with the defects and happy that the we have won a good product in a prodyct defect gsmbling its wrong for the future .

Sorry for the off topic a little

I forgot to tell you that you cannot find a Pogo cable also near my country region .

Abd i ve read that pogo gives you just 25% percent more fast charging time not 40% like the furst topic said .
[Nexus 10 Accessories] hlaalu:
Wow guys, you don't HAVE to buy a pogo cable, nor do you NEED one. So stop complaining.

The more I think about it, Samsung is probably avoiding a patent lawsuit from apply by letting some other company make the cord.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] scooterboy5:
I don't experience any major defects. I'm very happy with my N10.

Respectfully - if yours has that many defects you should get something else instead.

25%...40%...whatever. It's still worth $20 to me.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] krash183:
So many errors.

We're all serious about our money. None of us need a tablet... It's a luxury item. Yeah I never thought I'd pay 25 for a charger but I did. I could care less if it says Samsung, Google, nexus or some off brand. It works and that's what matters. I'm not elitist enough to must have name brands stamped all over my stuff. Even if their were more official accessories for the nexus.... I'm pretty sure I'd still buy 3rd party stuff.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] samwheat:
I sold my laptop to purchase this .

its a luxury to throw money on things that you dont know if they will work good like you throw on 3th devices .

I don t want to loose money on half quality items . i want to know what i am buying thats why i choose samsung and google . looks like i was wrong

It works for you . for me hdmi not working ... Battery not working like says on the description . i cant send it back . so i want different stuff to make me happy if i have this device .

Ask for more to get more .

Ask for little and be happy with little and you will get nothing in the end. Many devices with problems

I want stample brand on my stuff because i want to see care about me as a client
[Nexus 10 Accessories] DefinityX:
We are getting a little off topic...

I love my pogo cable! I espcially love how I can fumble with it in the dark a bit, and not worry about scratching anything (The bottom of my Galaxy Nexus looks like a mine field...)

Plus, I haven't had any trouble with charging via pogo and using my USB OTG stuff, so it's awesome for movie time!
[Nexus 10 Accessories] stamatis:
Let's stick to the topic guys.

[Nexus 10 Accessories] anazei:
I ordered mine yesterday - my expectation pretty much is to be able to watch a movie in bed on the tablet stand and still actually have the tablet CHARGE and not discharge...
[Nexus 10 Accessories] Jadefalkon:
That's good to hear, I thought I read somewhere it wasn't possible to do both. I just picked up another Nexus over the weekend and tested the battery last night, it dropped 22% for a 112 minute movie (1080p mp4, 25% brightness, 85% volume and wifi on) I calculate the battery should last 8.4 hours. I used the pogo to recharge and it worked flawlessly, If I really can use the pogo and a otg cable when on a flight that will solve my problem of not having a keyboard dock like Asus.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] samwheat:
What is the charging time when watching a movie or web browsing with the pogo in ?
[Nexus 10 Accessories] hlaalu:
It's slow but still charges. Anything is better than having it plugged in and draining
[Nexus 10 Accessories] espionage724:
It'll still drain while plugged in depending on usage (max brightness and 1.7Ghz CPU will still drain for sure).
[Nexus 10 Accessories] NYCHitman1:
On the contrary, friend.. my N10 charges well w/ max brightness and high CPU clock while watching movies. However, it does charge slower than it would if no activity were occurring. :good:
[Nexus 10 Accessories] hughlle:
Agree. The only thing that seems to cause my battery to drain while charging is if i'm playing a very intensive game, which i don't really do. Short story for me, if it's plugged into the wall, then i don't have to worry about battery :)
[Nexus 10 Accessories] prod.no:
charging problem

I have problem when I connect the pogo cable it says that it`s charger with usb, and not ac.

I`m using cm 10.1. Does anyone have a good idea what could be wrong.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] hughlle:
Does it charge at the same speed as when using the micro usb cable, or faster? as is the norm. that is to say, is the fact that it states usb as opposed to AC actually of any significance other than what the system stating? Because it's quite clealy not charging via USB despite it telling you so, which can be varified by the fact that you are using a pogo cable, not a usb cable.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] anechoic:
i heard from other users the pogo cable just charge about 10-15% faster..since i am not heavy user don't think i need it.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] prod.no:
I use standard wall charger, tablet charger much later with pogo cabel then with miro usb cable with the same charger. With batterymonitor measures approximately 500mA with pogo and about 1400mA with micro usb cable.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] Ashade:
In my case it chargers in less than 4h, reaching currents of up to 1950mA. Not kidding, almost double of what I was getting through USB.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] Arcano:
¿How are you guys measuring the current?.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] DefinityX:
Read again... I had to do a double check myself...

Some people here actually have physical device that they use to measure, but he used an App called BatterMonitor. FYI, though, I've read some mixed reviews about how it interacts with some brands of devices (samsung being one of them).
[Nexus 10 Accessories] Tuchiya:
I just arrived, but I have a question, you can connect the tablet to the PC by USB cable load while pogo?.

Should I disconnect one of the two ways of charging, usb or pogo.

I do not think the two loads at a time, and produce an overvoltage.

Anyone know anything about this?

Best regards.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] Arcano:
You may use the usb while the pogo is plugged in, it will recharge from the pogo, and use the usb for data.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] Tuchiya:
I mean connect to pc, do not connect a USB or keyboard, are you sure I can connect the two together?

Bests regards.

I just bought one from accessorygeeks. It didn't tell me whether it's out of stock or not, or if it's shipping out from korea, but I ordered anyway.

Pricing was 19.99 with free shipping and they currently have a 10% off promotion so all in all, it came out to 17.99 total. I'll take 2 bucks off anything any day. A saving is a saving no matter how you look at it. LOL.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] rlattin24:
Got one of these off amazon they really do make a difference. You can actually play games with this whereas if you were just using a micro USB your battery would still die.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] anazei:
Performance is underwhelming.

Of course it's nice to have the tablet actually charging while using it, but it doesn't charge fast under those circumstances.

The connection is nice of course, because you don't have as much wear and tear on your USB port, but for 20$ I expected more.

It's still a worthwhile investment just because of the charge-while-using capability, but there is no doubt that this is overpriced and should've been included in the retail box, not as an accessory.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] swany6mm:
I am beginning to actually wonder if some of the cables don't have problems? Some people complain about it not charging very well while others say it charges faster on what seems to be equal setups running similar apps. Mine charges faster. To be fair I don't run anything heavy (no games just movies, medium brightness, etc). I feel that I got a decent deal for the money HOWEVER I still agree it should have been an included item. ;)

[Nexus 10 Accessories] espionage724:
Seems the lucky ones are even to do this. High-usage (max brightness, 1.7Ghz @ Performance governor, gaming) in my case and not even my pogo cable can charge through that...
[Nexus 10 Accessories] wptski:
Who or what are you blaming about that? Someone stated that "some" game was drawing 3A from the battery and that's higher than the max rate spec(2.5A) for the internal charger which is coded for 2.1A max. Would the same game run as good on another device with less power consumption?
[Nexus 10 Accessories] MetalG:

It works awesomely... :D I have it since the month it came out. In my opinion, definitely worth every cent.

Completely disagree. Less than 6h from 0 to 100%
[Nexus 10 Accessories] anazei:
We were discussing the performance when actually using the tablet. Just plugging it in for 6h and not doing anything with it is not a huge accomplishement - even the standard MicroUSB performce similarly,...
[Nexus 10 Accessories] Ashade:
The standard microUSB takes more than 10h to charge from 0 to 100%, using the 2A charger that is provided with the tablet, plus you can see discharging while playing games (huge discharging). This means an increase in performance of around 40%. With the POGO cable I can play my most demanding game, while listening to Spotify by streaming and still charge the tablet, which is the least I ask for. I think that is awesome considering the power drain of this tablet and that you are charging a battery of 10000mAh. Completely worth every single cent.

Do you want less battery drain? buy a tablet with 720p instead of 1600p, you´ll see how fast it charges when you play videogames.

[Nexus 10 Accessories] rodrigorajao:
Here's my opinion, FWIW:

I bought my pogo cable directly from Magnector as Amazon won't ship it to Brazil. I ordered it last Saturday and yesterday I already got a tracking #. It ships from S. Korea, so it should take between 45 days and a couple months to get here (that's how long stuff from DealExtreme, in China, usually takes to arrive). I'm not in a hurry, though.

The only reason I bought it was to preserve the micro USB. I always charge the N10 overnight, so charging speed is no big deal. The other day I left it charging on my nightstand, then I woke up to use it the next day. I was half awake and forgot the charger was connected, so I yanked it pretty hard and now I have the impression the miro USB is a bit loose. Since the micro USB port is generally part of the motherboard on portable devices, chances are I'll never have it fixed if it ever breaks. So I better be damn careful.

I'm not a big fan of buying accessories, and I agree with others that $20 for a freaking cable is way too much. Might as well call it Monster Pogo Cable :laugh: The only cable for which I've paid this much was a 6m HDMI cable I bought way back when I bought my first HDMI-enabled TV set.

But then again, if I'll help my device last longer, so be it.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] Ashade:
That is another good point. This cable is magnetic which means it would have come out in that case, and would never put any stress on your port.

Regarding the price... It might be a little bit pricey, and I think that probably 15$ is a more reasonable price. But keep in mind this is not an standard cable, which means it cannot be done out of standard parts, plus it is pretty complicated. The pins retract to accomodate the position on the port, and therefore are connected through mini- springs to the case. This forces you to design an sliding connection inside as well. Again, pretty complicated design, and probably one of the reasons for the high price. The other one is probably that this is the only provider at this point: no competence, higher price. I am used to buy cables for audio applications, and this is not a ridiculous price for a cable.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] rgomesf:
No. From http://pogocable.com. They forgot to send me my cable. After some emails everything is ok now. I have my cable :)
[Nexus 10 Accessories] forthepie:
POGO cable is great, if I am using the AC adapter that came with the Nexus 10. Any other adapter, it charges as slow or slower than the usb port. I am trying to locate another AC adapter so I can have one at work and at home (I bought 2 cables). Anyone know where I can find one? I got a Samsung Adapter from Amazon and it looks like a phone charger and it doesn't charge like the OEM. I've seen a couple adapters listed in various threads, just wondering if they provide the same performance as the OEM adapter, with the POGO cable.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] jonstrong:
I searched high and low and finally found an adapter that puts out 2.1A on each of two outlets - concurrently. Excellent quality. Same spec on each channel as oem charger on its single outlet. Great fit and finish too. Can support two high demand devices at once.

I've been using it with the Pogo cable, and it is perfect. Link:

Thank you!
[Nexus 10 Accessories] espionage724:
I still notice a battery discharge with the Pogo cable and gaming... or I did anyway in the past. Can't say I've actually payed any attention anymore.

Different Nexus 10's have different voltage tables. It might be possible that the slight variation in voltage tables is enough to determine whether you can charge or not during high-usage, but who knows. Maybe my Pogo cable is defective or something...
[Nexus 10 Accessories] Ashade:
I agree that there is something definitely weird because a lot of people is claiming different results. Did you check the current you are getting while charging in rest? The charger you use does a difference as well. Other thing you could try is with another different kernel.

What I found out is that no matter what, the charging rate is different over 90% of charging. It starts charging slower no matter what cable or charger you are using. Before 90% is much faster.

The option that the quality control and the differences within series of fabrication is big is still there as well. We might have to wait to some people with two cables performing some tests...

Just what I was looking for, I got external USB battery takes 2A input so does the Pogo cable so with this wall charger I can get maximum power input in a given time, leave with as much N10 charge and and as much pocket USB battery charge.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] workerantDroid:
expensive

Wow this cable is expensive. $25. Usually I buy cables for around $5. Think I got my HDMI cable for $4. Anywhere cheaper beside $25?
[Nexus 10 Accessories] nigelhealy:
I know, being screwed

Not that I could find, the best I could do was avoid adding postage at that $25 mark.

I paired my exhorbitant $25 cable with a dual 2.1A PSU. I'll do some benchmark charging experiments in coming days. In theory the Pogo cable should be able to get some advantage from the 2.1A vs the supplied 2A.

For $500 RRP you'd think they'd have bundled the cable, having basically made the problem which benefits from the cable.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] Zod09999:
Is anyone using a pogo cable on an external battery with the same speed as on a wall charger? I bought an Anker battery but with the Pogo-cable it only charges about 5%/hour at the 2A output. Usb-cable charges at the same rate on the battery as on the wall charger.
