Amazon Basics MFi-Certified USB-A to Lightning Cable for Apple iPhone and iPad - 6 Feet (1.8 Meters), White

I bought Amazon basic cables some time ago. I saw someone post these horrible pictures of their phone melting or something ridiculous. I've had my Amazon Basic cable for like 1 or 2 years. No issues with that cable at all, still works, no cable fraying, but then again, it's just by my bed to charge at night. I needed some new cables for my car. I have a Ford Focus. I had purchased some charging cables on here and my tablet would not charge using those cables, so I wondered if the USB ports were not powerful enough. But when I got these cables, my iPad charges just fine! Plus, over time, many of the other cables will start not being recognized by the Apple devices. I don't know why that occurs over time (they lasted one or two months), but it's annoying because the cables eventually are useless. Once I bought these cables, I've had no issues whatsoever, and they worked charging larger devices on the exact same car USB ports. I will only purchase the Amazon Basic cables from now on. It's worth it.

It works very well and is very durable. I had the amazon basics charger that came before this one and I got a couple years out of it before it stopped working, mostly because it was in my car. This one works great in my car and inside. No signs of wear and it’s really long. I like the big base where it goes into the phone, makes it easy to grab even with my otter box in the way. You won’t find a better charger, especially for that crazy low price. The price was just too low, I thought it was going to be junk but it’s actually higher quality than some $30 chargers I’ve bought in the past.

iPhone charger works great, looks good and It is also easy to use when traveling. The iPhone charger battery life is excellent. The cable cord is a length,

You can never have enough and it gets expensive always buying Apple brand. These work just as well. They might not last as long but with the price break, it’s worth it. Great stocking stuffer for teens too!

Love the length, love that it charged well. At least until one of my cords died after just three months of use. So frustrating. Definitely expected it to last a lot longer than it did. The only time I used it was when I would plug my phone in at night. My bedside table is literally 2 feet from me, so it’s not like the cord was over-extended or anything. I just woke up a couple mornings ago to a phone that wasn’t charged. So I tested the cord and my block together and separately in different outlets in my house, with different blocks and different cords; this cord was the only thing not working. I do not recommend.

This is the perfect size for what I was looking for- a cable for a portable phone charger (because most come only with micro-USB cables and I have an iPhone). I was sick of using longer USB to lightning cables that were bulky to carry around and defeated the purpose of having a small portable battery charger- this 4” cable is the perfect length! I’m tempted to buy a few more because I have a couple of different portable phone chargers that have the same issue with the cable (even ones that came with a micro-USB to lightning “adapter” because they either don’t fit snugly, or more commonly, my phone won’t “recognize” the accessory because the adapters don’t really work). It is a little bit pricey I feel for the 4” cable because it is so small, and I think I paid around $7, and this product isn’t made by Apple (and “MFi certified” doesn’t really mean anything in my experience when it comes to third-party cables with Apple products). I wish the price was a little less, but am overall still happy to have found this, as the “adapters” weren’t working with the more recent iOS updates, but still wanted to be able to carry a portable charger. If this is the case for you too—then I 100% recommend buying the 4” cable (it’s the perfect size). Also, in my experience, Amazon tends to make pretty decent quality “basic” products that don’t break after a couple of uses. I also had no error message or problem when I used this cable with my portable charger and iPhone, which is a pretty big problem these days with non-Apple cables, so that is a huge positive.

It charges as fast as most chargers . . . Maybe a tad bit faster. However, the cord is weak near the end where it connects to the end piece that plugs into the phone’s port. The cord is average but as I said the end cord is weaker then I’d like. Ultimately that part of the cord that attaches to the connector . . . The part you put into the cell phones port 📲 always ends up bending until the wires are exposed making it not usable anymore. Like charging cords this one will be no different. They all end up bending until the wires are exposed and they are not usable anymore. I say this with certainty because this one has already started to bend at the end the connector that goes into the phone port. Just like I’ve repeated myself over and over again. I will have to buy new chords over and over again continue to charge my iPhone. It can’t be that hard to design one that will hold up over time. Are Just my opinion. . . But It can’t be that hard to design one that will hold up over time.

Amazon basics are my go to brand for accessories

È la seconda volta che acquisto questo prodotto. Comodo per l’utilizzo con powerbank, di qualità ottima e prezzo ottimo.

Super gut geeignet, um iphone im Auto (hier: Toyota) mit Apple CarPlay an der Mittelkonsole zu verbinden! Kabel ist genau ausreichend lang, lädt schnell und stabil und man hat nicht sinnlos tausend Meter Kabel im Fußraum rumliegen. Klare Kaufempfehlung!

El cable de 10 cm es perfecto para lo que necesitaba. Permite carga del iPhone y transmisión de datos. Todo un acierto.

Cavo di buona fattura, ad un prezzo veramente conveniente (considerandone anche la lunghezza). E' molto più rigido dell'originale e ha un diametro leggermente maggiore (ma parliamo di mezzo millimetro). Il cavo originale è morbido e "gommoso" al tatto, questo invece ha una consistenza più... "plasticosa", liscia. Ma forse ha il vantaggio di sporcarsi di meno. Il connettore Lightning si inserisce perfettamente nell'iPhone e nell'iPad (d'altronde per essere certificato Apple MFi deve necessariamente rispettare altissimi standard qualitativi). Il terminale plastico però è più voluminoso rispetto a quello del cavo originale: a grandi linee è 1mm più spesso e 2mm più largo. Ottima la carica: pur essendo molto più lungo, ho misurato una corrente di carica addirittura superiore a quella del cavo originale che utilizzo abitualmente.

I have used COUNTLESS lightning cables. My entire family is on apple mobile devices. As the tech guy, it's my job to order new cables when the time comes. We have probably been through around 10 different brands and this specific style of Amazon Basics cable is BAR NONE the most durable cable you can get. You will find this design is fairly common in other cabled product like heating pads... generally, outside of charging cables any cable that's meant to bend looks like this. For some reason, Amazon is the only one with the brain to design a cable like this and sure enough it works. TLDR: I abuse this specific style of Amazon Basics lightning cable and not one of then has let me down.
