Reviews for Lightning to USB Cable (1 m)

I got mine with my ipod touch 5th gen in October and it still works; as well as the ones that we use at work with the roofers who don't exactly take good care of the cables as they are kept in the van, get thrown onto the desks and are left on the ground then forgetting about them until they get rolled over on the chairs. All work with no trouble.

It's way too short, plus I've only had it for almost six months and it's broken. I keep it safe and take good care of it and then in one day it just *BAM* dies on me. So now I've bought a $2 one from china instead. That will probably last just as long. And it's three times longer in length. Get it together, Apple.

I've only had the iPad mini for 3 weeks and the charger already stopped working!!!!! Not to mention my iPhone 5 chargers, I've already went through atleast 2 chargers within 3 months !!!!! This is so inconvenient and getting pricey. These chargers stop working right away. I'm even afraid to touch or move the cord thinking I might mess it up or something. THIS CHARGER IS THE WORST!

got this charger with my iPad mini 1 month in and a wire has come loose i think my replacement which is not apple branded is a lot better quality not impressed apple!

Ive bought this charger twice now and they work for a week then i get a "Because a USB device was drawing too much power from your computer, one or more of your USB devices have been disabled" warning. I always charge my phone using my macbook Air.

i got an ipod 5 in late january or early febuary. as soon as i got th ipod my cord didnt seem to be working right since then i have had to get two new cords. i wish i never got the ipod 5 because i cant use it if it doesnt charge! I have had 3 charging cords all which broke in less than five months!!!

I've had my iPod 5 generation since February and I've already been through 2 chargers. The second one I've only had for 3 weeks. This is ridiculous. If my next charger doesn't last longer than a month you can forget about me ever buying an apple product again!

Can't believe that apple have allowed this cable to be given to us... Let alone sold again! Apple have really let me down and this is now my third replacement for the iPad mini in 4 months. What a joke.

New tablet, just under 6 months with USB lightning cable, and my son and I were electrocuted. Nothing major,but the insulation just below the reinforced 8 pin had worn a pin hole. He came to me and said, "It won't charge and it stung me a little bit". I am an idiot and got a slight shock too. The cable is worth 20 bucks, so I wanted to see what was going on inside the cord.The inside of the insulation looked browned right near the pinhole that we got shocked from. A red wire was coming lose closer to the 8 pin adapter. My daughters tablet is looking similar. Its scrunching just before the reinforced part prior to the 8 pin. I'm not a trained fire marshal, but I'm tossing her 6 month old cord also. Both kids paid a large portion of the purchase price, and they have treated the tablets very well. They can only use them in the family room, so we have seen 99% of the usage of this product.
The cable has to be in the device when the battery is low. This creates a problem due to the light weight soft outer sleeve part of the cable. I think its when they are lying on a sofa and charging.The cable needs to be reinforced further out from the pin, or an entire heavy duty cable needs to be made.
I gave it 2 stars, because we are heavy users. These problems may not occur in light usage that does not deplete the battery. We are however, very disappointed with the quality and possible safety of the chord for heavy usage. I will not buy a cheap knock off, and want other heavy users, to be aware of a possible hazard.
