The Beats USB-C to USB-C Cable Bolt Black is the quiet one in the Beats cable range: a 1.5 m woven USB-C to USB-C lead finished in a deep, near-matte black with a small Beats logo on each plug. It fast-charges at up to 60W when paired with a compatible USB-C power adapter, moves data at USB 2.0 rates, and works with CarPlay, Beats audio products, iPhone 15 and later, iPad, Mac and Android phones. If you want a cable that disappears into a black desk, a dark car interior or a crowded bag, this is the shade to pick.

Why Bolt Black Works as an Everyday Colour
Black is the safe answer for a cable that is plugged in and unplugged several times a day. The braid of the Beats USB-C to USB-C Cable Bolt Black is dyed right through, so the colour does not depend on a printed coating that rubs off at the bends. Pocket fluff, desk dust and the grey smudge you get from car seats are far harder to see on Bolt Black than on the Surge Stone or Rapid Red versions, which makes this the colour that still looks tidy after months of use without regular wiping.
It also matches almost everything people in the UAE already own: Space Black and Black Titanium iPhones, Midnight MacBook Air models, black AirPods Max, black Beats Pill and Studio Pro headphones, black chargers, and most car consoles. The two Beats logos on the plugs are printed in a slightly lighter tone, so you can still tell which way the connector is facing when you reach for it.
Who usually picks Bolt Black? Office workers who keep a cable running from a laptop dock, drivers who leave one permanently in the car for CarPlay, and anyone who simply prefers a setup that reads as calm and uniform rather than colourful.
The Beats USB-C to USB-C Cable Bolt Black in the Car, at the Desk and on the Bedside
At 1.5 m (5 ft), the Beats USB-C to USB-C Cable Bolt Black reaches from a centre-console USB-C port to a phone mount on the dashboard or to a passenger in the back seat without being stretched tight. Apple lists CarPlay among its uses, so the same lead that charges your iPhone also carries the CarPlay connection to a wired head unit.
On a desk, the length is enough to run from a USB-C charger under the table up to a phone or iPad on a stand. Black disappears against dark wood, black metal frames and most monitor stands, so the cable does not draw the eye in video calls. The woven outer layer is soft and flexible, so it lies close to the surface instead of springing into loops, and Beats says the design resists tangles when you coil it into a bag.
One practical note for car use: a black cable on a black car mat is easy to lose under a seat at night. Many owners leave the Beats USB-C to USB-C Cable Bolt Black plugged in at the console end so it is always where they expect it.
Charging and Data in Short
Apple’s specification for the Beats USB-C to USB-C Cable Bolt Black is short. Fast charging reaches up to 60W with a compatible USB-C power adapter, which is enough for iPhone, iPad, AirPods, Beats headphones and speakers, and for a MacBook Air. Data transfer runs at USB 2.0 rates. Beats says the cable automatically regulates power transmission for extra protection, that each plug is reinforced at common strain points to prevent fraying, and that its cables go through thousands of hours of testing during design and manufacture. With USB-C Beats products such as the Beats Pill, the cable can charge the speaker or headphones while you listen, and Beats mentions lossless audio playback over USB-C with the Pill. The box holds the cable only, with no power adapter.
Who This Is Not For
The Beats USB-C to USB-C Cable Bolt Black is not a fast data cable. USB 2.0 rates are fine for syncing music or sending a few photos, but moving a long 4K video off an iPhone 15 Pro or later will take far longer than with a USB 3 or Thunderbolt cable. Apple lists charging, syncing, audio, CarPlay and data, and does not list video output, so do not buy it to drive an external monitor.
The 60W ceiling of the Beats USB-C to USB-C Cable Bolt Black also matters for larger laptops. A 14-inch or 16-inch MacBook Pro will charge with it, but more slowly than with the high-wattage cable Apple supplies for those machines. And if you already struggle to find black cables in a dark bag or car, one of the brighter colours will save you some searching.

FAQ
Does the Bolt Black braid show dust or lint?
No, not much. The dark woven finish of the Beats USB-C to USB-C Cable Bolt Black hides pocket fluff, desk dust and car-seat smudges much better than the Surge Stone or Rapid Red versions; a dry cloth removes what does build up.
Will the Bolt Black colour match a Space Black or Black Titanium iPhone?
Yes. The Beats USB-C to USB-C Cable Bolt Black is a neutral near-matte black that sits comfortably next to Space Black, Black Titanium and Midnight Apple devices, black Beats headphones and black chargers.
Is Bolt Black the same as the black two-pack Beats cable?
Yes, the colour name is the same. Apple also sells a Two-Pack Beats USB-C to USB-C Woven Cables in Bolt Black; this listing is the single 1.5 m cable.
How many watts can the cable carry?
60W is the maximum Apple quotes, reached only with a compatible USB-C power adapter that can supply it.
Can I plug it straight into a UAE wall socket?
No. It is a USB-C cable, so it needs a USB-C power adapter (not included). Any USB-C adapter with the UK-style three-pin Type G plug used in the UAE works on the local 220-240V supply.
Does it work with Android phones and Android Auto?
Yes. Apple describes the Beats USB-C to USB-C Cable Bolt Black as compatible with USB-C Apple and Android devices, and Beats lists Android Auto alongside CarPlay.
