Anker Powerline II Lightning Cable (3ft), MFi Certified for iPhone Xs/XS Max/XR/X / 8/8 Plus / 7/7 Plus / 6/6 Plus (Black)

I’ve gone through a graveyard of cheap Lightning cables, but Anker’s USB to Lightning PowerLine (6 ft) is in a league of its own. This thing is built like a tank. The cable feels solid, not flimsy or easily frayed like the Apple ones that come in the box.At 6 feet, it’s the perfect length—long enough to use your phone comfortably while charging from the couch or bed, but not so long that it turns into a spaghetti situation. Charging speed is great, and data transfer is just as solid. I use it with both my iPhone and iPad, and it hasn’t missed a beat.Bonus: it comes with Anker’s customer service and warranty, which are top-notch. If you’re tired of replacing cables every few months, just get this one and be done with it

I bought this to connect my iPhone to wired Apple CarPlay. It works just as advertised, and I expect it to last long because I am only using it in the car. The cord length is enough to use your phone or set it on the dashboard.

The latest version of the Anker ‘Powerline’ cord continues to have a design that outlasts the apple official wire. Its my “daily driver” when I charge every night before sleep, and when I travel. Data seems to pass through well, and works well with wired apple-car-play (a good indicator of wire quality, in case you didnt know).This wire replaced a Powerline 2 that lasted many years and many trips.At 10ft long you get a lot of freedom to move. It stays in the lightning port well and has a reliable connection.The connector is maybe .5mm taller than the previous version, but I think it would clear most cases, but its NOT as slim as an Apple cord so of your case *only* fits an apple wire (rare now a days) then this might not for.I photographed the pins, the metallurgy of the pins appears to have less of a gold color. I can only speculate that its a cost saving measure… however I cannot say that for sure.I'd suggest if you need a reliable, and long-lasting cable- and flexibility in tight spaces is not the most important factor, this is a recommended buy. ANKER’s quality continues to be impressive and reliable for the price.

I've used Anker cables for a few years now and won't buy anything else. They're just so much more durable than others I've tried.

Well made. Inserts like Apple brand. I bought another brand. It didn’t insert with a nice tight click and then the charging after a while started fluctuating on and off. So far this seems to be equal to apples cables

The cord that came with my iPhone began to falter after so many years so I looked for a replacement. I purchased a 3-pack of a cheaper cord that looked like a good deal. I suppose if I was just looking for a cord to charge the phone, they would have been okay, but I use Apple Car Play every time I get in the car. The cheap ones do not work well with Car Play. I went ahead and purchased a this cord and what a difference! Night and day.

The media could not be loaded. Initial un-boxing:Cable was packaged in a simple sturdy box, cable felt durable and not cheap, it has some heft to it.I bought this cable mainly because of the warranty, knowing that it will last a lifetime, its a no brainer.I travel quite a lot so this cable goes where I go.The nice thing about a long cable is the reach. Every hotel room is different, sometimes they have the power socket next to your bed, sometime they have it across the room. Having this long cable really put ease between charging.The cons: It does tangle from time to time due to its length, I'm not even gonna complain on this one.**1 YEAR AFTER:There's some crack here and there, some noticeable weak spots, its starts getting more pliable and filthy. I cleaned them like once this year, with disinfectant and some good rubbing (you're going to hell).But as you can see from the video, the steel braid cabling inside the rubber casing is not affected, its still solid.Its about time to call/contact Anker to claim that warranty.I was surprised, even though its in such a bad shape the cable have persistently performed; no hot spots, no losing charge, no malfunction. I'm quite impressed at this point.**WARRANTY:I emailed Anker customer support and they followed up right away.No hassle and timely to deal with. I have my replacement cable in about a week.Overall, I'm very happy with this company, and I wish they will never go away.Keep it up Anker!
