Reviews for Lightning to USB Cable (1 m)

Lasted 4 months then just stops charging, absolute piece of bul And they charge $20! Ahh the usual ripoff by Apple. I expected quality

I use my charger quite frequently and have come to realize that since I got my iphone 5 Ive changed my charger at least 4 times do to wire being exposed as well as sudden failures... it gets annoying when you are on a business call and you have come to realize the charger doesnt work and you are at 1 percent!!!!

I just recently got an iPod touch 5 and the charger just stopped working. I've had this happen repeatedly. Not acceptable apple.

I prefer the smaller foot print of the new lightning connector as compared to the 30 pin connecter.... I like the positive connection and the fact that it’s universal so there is no right or wrong way to plug it in. However, there is a huge, huge, huge flaw with this design. With the 30 pin connector, you could grasp the connecter itself to disconnect the device. With the new lightning connector, it is so tiny, that you have almost no option but to pull the cable to disconnect the connector, especially if you use a protective case. So that being said, try as I might to be careful as possible, I am on my 4th lightning cable in as many months... They simply pull apart, and at $19.00 a pop the problem is adding up quickly.

I got my iphone 5 about a month after it was released. so ive had it about 3 months now. I love the new cable, its recharges my phone within a hour or so! buuut the cable itself doesnt last. Sometimes i wonder if im the only one who has to replace a phone charger every 3 mnths or so.

Treated this cable with the utmost care from the time I took it out of the box. It lasted all of two months.

Having just switched from android, I find this new cable annoying as it is not universal like a micro USB. Also I don't like that the cord is so short, you have to put your phone on the floor to charge it. It does charge the phone really fast though.

I understand the premise behind the change and I love how this cord is made over the other I've been using over the years. The only gripe is I had a dual charging stand for my iPad 1 and iPhone 4, it's now obsolete. The new iPad won't charge on the stand either for some reason. I have a lot of cords that can go to others who need them but I sure think Apple would have sent at least two in the box. I'm not happy about there being no stand for my phone. They should have developed one with this newest plug version and also sent that in the box. I love Apple products but now they are going to $29 me to death. Then I have to buy the stand when one comes out, UUUGGHHH! Great phone so a five star. I did all of this, mostly, from Siri

for some reason the cables for older iPhones have lasted way long than this one. it breaks after the little part that covers the first bit of the cable on the lightning side, it needs to have a bit larger part that covers the rest of the wire. The casing comes unattached leaving the wire free to bend and become frayed right away.

It probably because the cord is short and the lightning end is where it's most likely to be bent, but Apple needs to take that into affect and maybe even making the plastic casing longer so that your entire index finger can grab it
