This cable works as expected and I appreciate the shorter 18 inch length (I use it to connect from my car's dash to my iPhone in the cup holder so a longer cable just gets in the way). But this cable doesn't conform to Apple Lightning cable standards: - very thin cable, some concerns how it will hold up over time - cable is much stiffer than the Apple Lightning cable - connection to my iPhone isn't very good when I bump into the cable , the connector will be temporarily disconnected from the iPhone. I didn't have this problem with the Apple cable or the Griffin USB to Lightning connector, which is a 4" twisted pair cable that I've used before. So unless you're actually going to use the shorter length, I'd pay a few bucks more for an Apple OEM cable. The Griffin coiled cable mentioned above also had quality issues. Another option is the 60cm Griffin Lightning cable (as far as I can tell, Revain isn't sold) - I use this cable on my desk and it's better than the RND cable.
