Our take on the Apple Lightning to USB Cable (1 m)

Apple's own Lightning to USB-A cable, one meter long, for charging and syncing any Lightning iPhone, iPad, iPod or AirPods case through a computer's USB port or a USB-A wall adapter. It is a plain USB 2.0 cable with no fast-charge or data extras, so it stands or falls on build and the MFi chip inside. Owners rate it well for reliability and fit, but many complain the white jacket frays near the connectors after months of daily bending, and it costs more than third-party MFi cables that do the same job.

What reviewers say

Buyers rate it 4.5 out of 5 and mostly value that it just works: clean sync, a snug Lightning plug and no certification warnings. The recurring complaint is durability, with the cable splitting near the connector after months of daily use.

ValueCriticisedBuyers say it costs noticeably more than third-party MFi cables that perform the same.
FitPraisedThe Lightning connector seats firmly and stays put in the port.
