Review on Anker Powerline+ II Lightning Cable (3Ft) by Jason Staggs

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Quality Cables & Accessories

UPDATE: 1/25/2018 Anker contacted me through Revain and asked about my issue. I told them I wasn't sure if it was defective or just me but they were very friendly and generously offered a replacement for a free re-evaluation. I just received a replacement cable today and I have to say I'm glad they contacted me. The connector on this cable is certainly more secure than the one I bought. I still don't find it as firm as the Apple cable, but that's not a problem, so I'm changing my rating to 5 stars. I bought this cable to charge my phone when I use it in bed. It seems to work well and the cable is more flexible than expected. I've had it for less than a week, so I can't say much about durability, but there's one issue that constantly bothers me: the cable unscrews when I turn sideways. On the one hand, I don't have to pull hard, or at all, to unplug the cord from the phone, but on the other hand, it's pretty awkward to use in bed, and I spend a lot of time reading on my phone at night. I don't know if that was intentional or not.
