Chilery Using a USB cable to transfer large files from an Android phone to a computer is often considered the best method. USB cables, particularly USB 3.0 or later versions, offer much faster data transfer speeds compared to Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, or cloud-based methods. This makes transferring large files significantly quicker.
- USB 2.0 can transfer at speeds up to 480 Mbps.
- USB 3.0 can reach up to 5 Gbps, making it ideal for moving large files such as videos, high-resolution images, or backups.
Unlike cloud storage or Wi-Fi transfer methods, using a USB cable does not rely on internet access or local network conditions. This is particularly useful in areas with slow or unstable internet connections.
