The switch to USB-C has simplified life, but cable clutter remains. This new $44 Counterpart Charger, with a built-in 4-foot retractable USB-C cable and 35W GaN charging, promises a clutter-free charging experience for devices like phones, tablets, and headphones.
The switch to USB-C has vastly simplified my life, and I am very grateful for it, but I still struggle with cable clutter. Dealing with gadgets and gizmos for a family of four means the outlets on my kitchen counter resemble an unappealing bowl of silicon spaghetti, which is why this new $44 Counterpart Charger caught my eye. This compact charger includes a built-in 4-foot USB-C cable that — here’s the handy part — retracts with the press of a button, leaving you cable-free.
Counterpart is the brainchild of Portland-based artist and designer Chloe Fields, and it shows. I’ve been testing gadgets in my home for over a decade, and there are just too many black boxes and white cables out there. Most gadgets still look like they’ve been designed in a Best Buy; I want to see more that, at a minimum, look like they belong in a West Elm.
