We love these charging cables! My kids have messed up so many chargers by pulling their devices out of the charger the wrong way, so we bought these to make plugging and unplugging easier. That's great! A small charger stays in the unit (not intrusive. My husband has the same thing in his iPhone) and when you need to plug in the charger, the cable snaps magnetically into the charging port. They are very easy to install and remove without damaging the cable. I will be buying more of these for other devices in our house. They come with multiple types of connectors for different types of devices (we mainly use them for Kindle Fires and iPhone/iPad) and the cables are nice and thick.
