Top notch accessories for that new gear.   I’m Fred Fishkin with technology BootCamp, a report on gadgets and gear.    Whether you’re buying an extra charging cable for a new phone or an HDMI cable for a new 4K TV this holiday season,  going online to find the cheapest one you can find isn’t always the best idea.     I’ve encountered plenty of cables that simply don’t work…or work with some devices and not with others.   At Newertech, CEO Larry O’Connor has built a business creating a wide range of high quality accessories.   And when it comes to cables, he says….

“Just because a cable looks great doesn’t mean that it functions great.  There’s lots of people that focus on cosmetics and there’s plenty of good organizations that focus on the functionality.  We certainly put a lot of effort into having a cable that’s durable, looks good and also provides that functionality.”

O’Connor points out looks can be deceiving.   Just because a cable looks thicker, doesn’t always mean the quality is better.    You can find us at BootCamp.com.   I’m Fred Fishkin.
