I'm looking for a longer cable ( maybe not white) that can still charge at 33W using the included charger but i'm really confused.
It seems that the provided cable is only usb 2.0 (like the phone) but has an extra pin in the ground position in the usb3.0 layout. That pin is probably used to communicate to the provided charger (CC pin in the type C port for standard Type C to Type C PD cables) following the power delivery specifications.
Are common usb3.1 A to C cables fully compatible with the charger or i'm forced to buy a new charger too? Anyone that has already bought a cable has some advice?

The cable just need to be 3A to delivery 11V/33W.
I bought this: Orico B2-ACA01 and works like stock Xiaomi cable (appers Mi Turbo Charge on screen).
My older cable Orico HTF-10 is just 2.4A and can't achive 33W.
Well, there is another options to buy: Baseus, Blitzwolf, Anker. Look about amperes, need to be more than 3A and deliveries 33W or higher.

Has anyone tested any particular cables or adapters with this tablet.
Seems like all cables aren't created equal and some could be dangerous to the unit or adapter.
I'd like to have a spare apart from the one send with the tablet.
Thanks.

Someone reported here that they tested a fast charging setup, but didn't give details of the charger or the cable. The only danger is when trying to implement the Type C USB port charging functionality, such as charging in either direction and the higher optional current of 3A. Since the Type A to Type C cables fall back to USB 3.0 or USB 2.0, you don't have to worry about those types of cables or adaptors I think. The danger is the Type C to Type C cables, and I don't have an answer to that. Keep in mind we don't even know if the N1 itself is fully compliant with the Type C specs.
Review/Comparison between Choetech USB Car chargers QC3 USB (Tc002) & USB C (c0051)
(Note this is tested on HTC 10 with a choetech USB C cable)
USB QC 3 charger (Model tc002)
This is a nice little charger, small form and built well. It has a little led in the middle to let you know it has power/is charging. It also comes with usb c cable which is a nice addition.
It has 2 ports, one with a blue strip around it to let you know it’s the “main” QC 3 port. This port gives off 9.1v with 0.83a. The phone recognised this as QC3 and displayed the “charging rapidly” sign.
The 2nd port has no strip around it. It gives off 5v and 1.9a, so will charge slightly slower but still for an in charge charger will charge most phones well.
USB C QC 3 charger (Model c0051)
This is a nice little charger like the above, very similar build wise the only difference being the ports themselves. Please note no cable was provided with this charger. The led also changes from blue to green when charging.
It has 2 ports, 1 usb c and 1 normal USB (USB A). The normal usb port also looks reversible which is a nice added feature. The usb C port requires a USB C to USB C cable.
The normal USB port gives off 8.8v and 1.5a. The phone did recognize this as QC3 and displayed the “charging rapidly” sign.
The usb c port I was unable to read due to not having the right connector to read volts and amps, so I used an inbuilt amp to read the charging speed (Ampere). This read as 1800mA which as comparison is around the same as the official HTC charger that came with my HTC 10. The phone however did not display the “charging rapidly” sign
Conclusions
Both are very good chargers and both available at a reasonable price. If I were to pick one I would pick the 1st USB QC 3 charger (tc002) simply because I feel the double usb a ports give you more options when charging
As the title suggests. I am looking for a 6ft TRUE C-to-C cable USB 3.1 (10Gb) that also support Quick Charge 3.0. I have the Black Squid 3.3ft, but I need a few cables longer than 3.3ft.
Please advice!

Benson Leung has been evaluating USB-C cables on Amazon for full compliance and leaving reviews. Any cable he's signed off on should work.

I have this one and it does not enable the "Quick Charging" feature on my phone when I plug it in, it just charges it. I had to buy a different cable for quick charging to appear. Just a heads up.
Hello,
I need a couple of more charging cables for Oneplus 3. One for my car and other for work. I was wondering can I buy some extra Oneplus 3 cables or do I need the adapter also to go with it. Can I just buy USB-C cables if I don't need the dash charge option?
The Dash charge system requires both charger and cable to be DASH compatible, currently only OP sell those as far as I know. I have 5-6 other non-dash type C cables stashed at work etc and they work just fine, charge the OP at "normal" speeds rather than dash. Fine for charging when Im in bed.
So basically if I buy a USB Type C then I will get normal charging but not dash charging. Are the generic USB-Type C cables compatible with the dash adapater? I believe a normal USB cable will not work
I can use none google usb cable to charge pixel6pro but I cannot charge oneplus8pro by google usb cable.
Is there any secret on google usb cable ? Will it is clue to brick pixel6pro if using none google usb cable ?
You can use any quality cable. The only other brand other than an OEM cable that I trust is Anker, although I've gotten lucky with some (now discontinued) random name brands.

It is the OnePlus cable isn't a standard USB cable it is a propitiatory standard, that said any good quality cable should still charge the OnePlus phone but only at 15W (if memory serves).
Anker all the way for me as well, i cannot remember the last time i used the cable that came with a phone.
As mentioned by @MrBelter it's the OnePlus cable that's the issue.
I've had this cable for about 4 years (see link), and used it on the Pixel 2 XL, Pixel 4 XL, and Samsung Galaxy S21 with no issues...still using the same came on my P6P.

OnePlus either uses firmware within the USB connector, or a specific resistance value to determine if the cable is an OP cable and it's likely they do so to limit legal liability from users who unintentionally try to push 3A - 5A through a cable not designed to handle current that high.
Folks have unintentionally used shoddy USB cables to charge a smartphone that resulted in the death of the user.
When folks speak about a "quality" cable, it's referring to the wire gauge of the cable, as it's the gauge of the wire that dictates how much current can safely pass through the wire without causing it to overheat from the high resistance caused by pushing more current through the cable than the cable is designed to carry.
A quality manufacturer will list the gauge of the wires within a USB cable and if a listing doesn't have the wire gauge listed, my rule of thumb is it can handle no more than 10W (5V @ 2A). MonoPrice is a well known manufacturer of quality cables and they lifetime guarantee all their cables with a no-hassle lifetime warranty.
