Review on Anker 3ft Powerline II USB C to Lightning Cable - MFi Certified for iPhone 13 Pro Max, 12 Pro, 11 X XS XR 8 Plus, AirPods Pro - Supports Power Delivery (Charger Not Included) - White by Michael Godo

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Fantastic work with PD Fast charging and great build quality

I've used it with the iCllevef 30w PD charger and it works fantastic! Charges my iPhone X very quickly! For older iPhones (like 6s) the maximum I've seen is 7 watts. The cable is very thick and strong, but too short. I'm not deducting a star for that as this is what this article is for, but I really hope the 6ft version comes out soon. I've been buying Anker 6ft cable for about a year now and I really like this size. I asked their support team and they have no idea when the 6ft version will be out. I hope that happens soon! TL; DR: This cable has fantastic build quality, is Apple-blessed, and works with PD Fast Chargers on supported iPhones. It's also cheaper than the official Apple cable. Definitely worth the price. However, if you are used to 6 feet, this will be too small for you. UPDATE (3/16/19): I bought a USB-C extender as this cable was too short for me and I decided to see if it would fit. Fast charging worked. I can confirm that fast charging does indeed work with a connected USB-C extender! That will keep me satisfied for now while I wait for the 6ft version!
