Best split charging cables for iPhone

Top pick: DEWALT Heavy Duty 3-in-1 Charging Cable — one USB-A plug splits into USB-C, Lightning and micro-USB, so an iPhone, an older accessory and a modern device all charge from a single port. Kevlar-sheathed and 6 ft long, which is the combination that survives daily bag life.

Who the others suit:

• Native Union Belt Cable 2-in-1 — the neatest option for iPhone plus one other device; leather-strap build, long reach.
• DEWALT 100W Smart USB-C to USB-C Splitter — best if your devices are all USB-C and you want fast laptop-level power.
• 240W 4-in-1 USB Fast Charging Cable — the most versatile high-wattage pick, with an E-Mark chip for safe power sharing.
• Multi Charging Cable 2ft 2-pack 3-in-1 — short cords for a car console or desk, where long cables just tangle.
• CODi 4-Foot 3-in-1 — a simple mid-length spare for a desk drawer.

One caution: split cables share one power source, so charging several phones at once will be slower than charging them separately.
