I have a USB-C cable that was around the $40 mark, and it has bulky and robust connectors that likely house some electronics in them. I originally bought it to my mom as a charger/data cable, but she didn't like it, so I use it to occasionally connect my phone to my monitor. It transfers USB and 2.5K video signal without an issue with superfast charging as a bonus, and also braided. Not sure if it would fare at TB4 speeds.
