Good design, holds cable very well. Just consider making edges a little less sharp and adding some “wave” pattern on the sides for better grip when holding - some devices need strong pull or push action on theirs usb connection ports.

Great fit for my phone charger, but a bit tight for the (slightly wider) Steam Deck charger cable
