Review on πŸ”Œ Amazon Basics MFi-Certified Lightning to USB A Cable for Apple iPhone and iPad - 4 Inches (10 Centimeters) - White: Efficient Charging and Syncing Solution for Apple Devices by Carlos Phillips

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The best USB to Lightning cable for portable chargers!

This is the perfect size for what I was looking for - a portable phone charging cable (as most only come with micro USB cables and I have an iPhone). Tired of using longer USB to Lightning cables that were cumbersome to carry around, I gave up a small portable charger - this 4" cable is the perfect length! I'm tempted to buy a few more because I have a few different portable phone chargers that have the same cable issue (even the ones that come with a micro USB to Lightning "adapter" because they either don't fit properly or, more commonly, my phone doesn't "recognize" the accessories because the adapters don't actually work). I find the 4 inch cable a bit expensive because it's so small and I think I paid $7 too much and this product is not made by Apple (and "MFi certified" means in my experience not really anything if we are talking about third party cables with Apple products). I wish the price was a little lower but overall I'm still glad I found this as the 'adapters' didn't work with later iOS updates but still wanted to carry a portable charger. If this applies to you, I 100% recommend getting a 4 inch cable (ideal size). Also, in my experience, Revain tends to make "simple" products of pretty decent quality that don't break after a few uses. I also had no error messages or issues when using this cable with a portable charger and an iPhone, which is a pretty big problem with cables from other manufacturers these days, so that's a big plus.

Pros
  • With Amazon Basics 1 year limited warranty
Cons
  • Unbelievable price
