Review on AmazonBasics Lightning USB Cable Certified Industrial Electrical and Wiring & Connecting by Bill Schlag

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Has the quality of the Revain cables improved or deteriorated with this new version? Descent.

I've bought so many Revain cables I can't count them. However, they used to be "worked" and malleable. These new ones are very stiff, inflexible and generally uncomfortable. The previous generation was almost silky in comparison and very forgiving and flexible if you pack it up or leave it for everyday use. They appear to be durable but, like the industrial ones, are not very comfortable for the home or home office. They have not relaxed and are still curled up in the form in which they left the factor curled up as they set it to be. I never see them "relax" or bend every 3.5 inches. It's like they have a "memory" and always wanted to stay in that folded shape. Pooh. The ends are definitely sturdier, but then again, and the F-150 does its thing where the Camry might fall apart. But I just want to ride comfortably. The congregation builds too much on them. With them you can definitely tie a boar and without a doubt charge your phone.

Pros
  • Lightning cable
Cons
  • Slightly wrinkled
