Reviews for Lightning to USB Cable (1 m)

When i first purchased my iPhone 5, it came with this and after about 2 months, the rubber layer started to rip and eventually lead to the wire being completely torn. After i purchased a second, after 3 weeks, it started to malfunction and the wire would only work if i had in a specific position and after 5 weeks, it stopped working. After the third purchase, it had the same problem as the last one but lasted almost 3 months. I feel as this should not happen as often as it should and is rediculous

Pro: Charges quick and doesn't matter which way you plug it.
Con: Bad quality cable that has failed in 4 months of routine use.

Have had this cable from my iPad since December 2012 and used cable just about 4 months. It will not charge anymore. It was not being carted everywhere but so what if I was. Apple is supposed to be a premier product to match the premier price. Instead we are getting ho hum phones, product updates that maximize profits, maps that don't work, and and now cords that last 3 month 6 months. Stop sleeping on success. Steve's name will only carry Apple so far. Apple convert since 2007.

This is the second cord that has broken. I have had my ipod since December. My sister also has had her ipod since December and has had to replace her cord as well. Apple replaced the first cord.

I've been on vacation for 6 weeks, and have gone through at least 4 cables. They all seem to pull out from where it connects to the IPad. They all start out great, but by the beginning of the second week, they do not want to charge the Ipad...this is getting annoying and expensive. Is there some adapter that can be purchased to strengthen the cable connection into the Ipad, that will not pull the wires out. I am very careful in connecting and disconnecting the device, but I cannot believe that the "new cable" is this bad! Please advise on how to rectify this problem.

Thank you

So I got an iPhone 5 for my work phone so while charging the phone I removed it out the phone and the main wire separated from the connector!!!! It only lasted 4 DAYS!! And they cost $19!

My lightning to USB cord also lasted me about four months as well! I have to put it on a hard surface after fidgeting with it for five minutes. My 30-pin cord lasted about five years! These are very poorly made and I'm not happy about having to shell out $20 for a cord! I love my iPod touch but now I'm hesitant to get an iPhone if every few months I have to spend $20 for a poorly made cord!

I love the new charger, but I got this phone in Novemeber and the charger is already being fickle! It has to be in a certain position or it won't charge. I wish that the new cables were as strong as the original chargers. :(

# cables stopped working after less than 4 months... ridiculous!

Bought 3 ipad minis at christmas...cords have stopped working and have been replaced (some more than once).

We also own 2 regular sized Ipads and 2 Iphones. The old 30 pin cords that originally came with the older hardware still work to this day.

These new lightning cords are terrible quality.
