Hello,
on Christmas I buy Sony Xperia XZ1 - G8342 , but I in the box was only Sony UCB-20 cable (USB-C 2.0). So ... I buy cheap USB-C 3.1 cable , but it so bad , that if I plug it wrong way the transfer speed were 1MB/s , so like 2hours ago I got Sony UCB-30 (UCB-C 3.1Gen2 10Gbps) , but still got only 425mbps on USB tethering with UCB-30 cable . Even phone have only 35MB/s write speed , but the read speed are probably capped by USB2.0 because it go 60MB/s read speed. Does someone else have this problem ?

+ other thing with my motherboard , I can connect and transfer files only on my USB 3.1Gen2 ASMedia port , all other ports just connect disconnect the phone doens't matter if USB 3.0 USB 3.1gen1 , other devices like WD Elements (USB 3.0 external HDD) work as they should (+120MB/s transfer speed etc)

Googled about this more than +5hours , and even installed clean Win10 (1809) just for this, installed Xperia_XZ1_driver (link below) , in Xperia Companion I did Software repair , of course I did try other PCs too

only thread who talk about USB 3.1 is this one :

It should be faster.
So you tired different cables and different computers (all usb 3?) Did you get the speed readings from the network settings?
What usb modes did you check?
Is the phones socket clean?

[RESOLVED]

So in the end , even I did buy "Sony UCB-30" it was fake/defective cable (one side of the cable did have Sony Logo , other side didn't)
after 3. cable I have USB 3.0 speed with my Sony XZ1
first company is PremiumCord , which is very terrible company , all cables suck made by them
the second was probably factory discarded defective cable , which some companies buy and sell , because of greed ...
