Reviews for Lightning to USB cable (0.5m)

First charger broke, and apple kindly gave a replacement quickly. now 2 months later, second one is broken. -_-

I thought it was just me, but it seems they're just awful wires! They snap and break so easily!! On my 3rd one!! It's the last thing you want to be spending all your money on after purchasing a very expensive phone!! Sort it outttttttt

i have brought about 6 of these cables now and every single one of them has snapped off, this new cable design is a complete con and you should change them all back to the old cable

I think that Apple could solve this cable problem by making the plug that goes into the unit about three times the length. As it is so small it is easy to damage the cable by bending/pulling. If cable wires then short-out they can damage the power supply !!

My charger has broken after just having it for a couple of months, I have to plug it in several times before it chargers and then sometimes it won't charge at all, I don't want to spend a load of money for another charger that will break again in a couple of weeks.

broke after just a few weeks, a very poorly made product.

I really don't know what on earth all the fuss is about. I've had the 0.5m cable since October 12 and it still works fine. maybe not the most elegant cable but provided you don't cut it wash it or pull on it or anything else stupid, it should be fine. take care of it and it will work.

I've had my Lightning connector for around 4 months now, and I haven't had any serious problems with it, so I'm very surprised to see a 1 star on this product. The only thing I dislike about it is the length. If you charge it through your Mac, then I think the length is fine. But if you charge from a 3-point plug (UK) then I think 1m is essential. Having had a mostly positive experience, I'm confused by a lot of the reviewers' comments.

Well, we both got iphone 5's for christmas, and we'd priviosly had iphone 4's for 2 years. I still to this very day, have my 30 pin iphone. 4, origional cable fully working from over 2 years ago. So why do the lightningg conncter break so easily? They loose connection for abit and then just die, and now you expect yet another £15 out of my purse? When working the cable is very fast to charge and i like the both way charging, but seriosly, letting the phone down, bad reviews to all my friends and family! I advise to get the adapter from. 30 pin to 8 pin using the old cable, apple stil steals a further £25 from us, but at least they won't break! Fix it apple!

i've had my ipad mini for up to 3 months now and the cable cord doesn't work anymore, i'm not paying £15 if it's going to break again. I see people have the same problem as me, that i have to move the cord to a certain spot so that my ipad will charge. Apple needs to sort out this problem and they should replace the broken ones to brand new ones to the costumers.
