Misleading Product Claims and Unacceptable Customer Service
I purchased the Baseus Rapid Series 3-in-1 Cable (USB-C to M+L+T, 20W, 1.5m – CAMLT-SC01) specifically because it was advertised as a 20W PD fast-charging cable, with claims including charging an iPhone to 60% in 30 minutes, support for 18W/20W PD, and broad device compatibility. In real-world use, the cable did not perform as advertised. Using the same PD charger (Anker 336) and the same iPhone 16, I ran a side-by-side comparison: My existing cable charged the phone from 30% to 80% in 30 minutes The Baseus cable took over an hour to achieve the same result I contacted customer support expecting a reasonable discussion or troubleshooting. Instead, the experience was deeply disappointing: No response to email or WhatsApp for over 24 hours When a response finally came, I was told the cable is not a fast-charging cable, directly contradicting the product listing I was then told I must drain my phone to 0%–60% to file a complaint, despite Apple recommending the 30%–80% range for battery health When I suggested testing within this safe range, I was told they do not run tests “on a customer’s whim or Apple’s”, The same tech also told me that you are talking as if never in your life has your phone's battery died..lol. I was also told MFi certification is a “gimmick”, which raises serious concerns about product standards When I reported that the micro-USB output was not working, I was asked to provide video proof, as my word was not considered sufficient The tone of communication was dismissive and unprofessional, including sarcastic remarks about phone batteries dying “lol” This is not the level of service expected from a brand positioning itself as premium. Dismissive customer support made this experience extremely frustrating. I regret purchasing directly from the Baseus website and wish I had bought this product through Amazon, where customer protection and accountability are far stronger. I hope management reviews this feedback seriously and improves both product transparency and customer support standards. Raj Mashruwala
