Great charger
It actually does charge a little faster than regular ones. Not bad for the price.

Better the Apple original
I like this better than Apple original. The original Apple are too fragile and break easily under stress. I have used these for the last two years and all still looks new. I like them so much I buy more when on sale to give away to friends and family and keep extras around the house.

Nice
It’s a nice cable, not super quick charging as compared to my other one but quick enough.

Charges fast but broke after two years
This cable has some moderate usage but eventually broke after a couple years. The cord is extremely stiff and puts too much pressure on the connector. I wish the cord itself was more flexible. But the cable did work as expected and is better than most.

Great for battery bank use
I purchased a short one of these for charging my iPhone using a battery bank and when traveling.So far I have had no charging or failure to charge issues with it, a great value for the price as are most Amazon Basics items.

good charging cable
We have bought numerous Amazon charging cables over the years, but none have failed. I think they are durable and long-lasting. In contrast, the genuine Apple cables rarely last more than a year…

My Travel Savior
As a frequent traveler, I’ve gone through countless phone chargers, each one meeting an untimely demise through fraying cords, finicky connections, or untimely charger explosions (okay, maybe not that last one, but you get the picture). That is, until I met the Amazon Basics USB-A to Lightning Charger Cable. This little cord has become my travel companion extraordinaire, and I’m here to tell you why it deserves a perfect 5-star rating.Built to Last:Let’s start with the most important thing for any travel essential: durability. This cable is reinforced with a nylon braided cord that feels practically indestructible. I’ve snagged it on zippers, dragged it through airport floors, and even accidentally left it dangling out of my backpack during a particularly bumpy bus ride. Not a single fray, tear, or even a hint of wear and tear. It’s like the Energizer Bunny of charging cables.Charge Like a Champion:But a tough exterior means nothing if the inner workings are subpar. Thankfully, this cable charges my iPhone like a champ. It supports fast charging up to 2.4 amps, so I can go from dead battery to 100% in no time, even when plugged into airplane USB ports (which, let’s be honest, are notoriously slow). Plus, the MFi certification ensures complete compatibility with my Apple devices, so no more worrying about funky connections or error messages.Travel-Friendly Features:This cable isn’t just tough and powerful; it’s also incredibly travel-friendly. The 6-foot length gives me plenty of room to maneuver, whether I’m charging in my hotel room or sprawled out at an airport gate. And the compact, tangle-resistant design means it easily fits into my tech pouch without turning into a Gordian knot. Trust me, this is a major win when you’re dealing with limited suitcase space.Bonus Points:For the price, this cable is an absolute steal. It’s significantly cheaper than many other MFi-certified cables, but the quality is just as good, if not better. Plus, Amazon’s reliable shipping and excellent customer service give me peace of mind knowing I can always get a replacement if anything goes wrong (although, with this cable, I highly doubt that will happen).The Verdict:If you’re looking for a durable, fast-charging, and travel-friendly Lightning cable that won’t break the bank, look no further than the Amazon Basics USB-A to Lightning Charger Cable. It’s become my go-to travel companion, and I honestly can’t recommend it enough.

Great Amazon Basic Cables
I have purchased Amazon Basic cables and they are as good as the name brand cables. I have had after market cables that do not work and I end up returning. I always go with Amazon Basic when needed. They have not failed me yet. Highly recommend.

Well made.
I’ve purchased several of these throughout the years, they are well made and last a while. They eventually fail in the same place as all the other phone chargers do. For the price, I think it’s a good product. I always purchase the 6ft one and have been satisficed with my orders. If I need a longer cord, I just use a usb extension.

While it is now in the trash can because it stopped working, it was great while it lasted and when it started out, it had great battery life

It Actually Worked
This is a great cable because it is wrapped making it quite strong. It’s not long enough which is my fault, buy longer then you need. It was a great price and we are happy.

My go-to cable.
I have been using this cable for well over a year and it still looks brand new! I have never had a lightning cable last this long before without showing ware and tear or just plain not working. This style of Amazon cables will be my go-to cable from now on!

lighting cable
needed to replace a very worn cable and have found that the braided cables hold up much better overall. Have been a fan of Anker brand due to their durability but thought I would give this one a shot. Seems very similar to the Anker in terms of construction and performs as anticipated.

Still Works After Constant Use
I bought this as a replacement to a previous charger (white). The last one had partially separated where the cord goes into the plug-in part (you could see the wires). Chargers previous to that would work for a while and then quit charging. So far, this cord is working great even though it’s almost always plugged in. When it’s disconnected and my iPad loses some of its charge, it recharges quickly after I plug it back in. The connector portion is extremely sturdy as you can see in the photo.

Going strong 3 months later
I ordered this in May, and it’s still going great. Cord is sturdy, cord is long, and it’s durable against pesky little biters (meaning, if my cat randomly decides to try to chomp it while I’m using my phone moving the charger around enticing them, it doesn’t puncture through the entire cord) 😂For the price I appreciate this cord. 10/10!

Good for owners of cord chewing cats, cute!
One of my cats love to chew on cords. She will chew straight through a typical Apple cable. We hide them from her mostly, but it’s hard to be vigilant 100%. The cloth casing around this cord is a bit harder for her to chew through, so way less worried about her electrocuting herself! The pink is cute too, and it comes with cable management Velcro!

Sturdy charging cable
This is the 5th or so one of these I’ve bought, none of mine have broken or anything, I simply buy them for different places, one for the car, one for work, one for the bedside, one for a spare, and one that’s mobile. These chargers have held up better than any other I’ve ever used, I would highly recommend.

Amazon Basics always do it right
I’ve bought several of these cords for my family. I’ve bought cheaper ones before but these are much thicker and they continue to work for a long time. There are cheaper charging cables that are similar and cost less but they didn’t last very long. They quit charging our phones. These are great. They have lasted a long time and have not frayed. We use them with our wall chargers and car chargers with no issues.

Get It!
I’m always buying chargers because of shortages. I made this purchase a few times because that’s just how good quality it is. Everyone in the house has their own and they are still working very well. I like how sturdy it is. It charges the devices at a fast pace as well.

Best Charger!!!
I’ve had this charger for about a month or so, and I haven’t had any problems with it. I’m constantly charging my phone. It’s always getting thrown in my bag or in my car and it’s still going strong. I Highly recommend getting this charger.

Good replacement cable
We bought this to replace the original charging cables and we also wanted to get something with additional length. This fit the bill nicely on both counts. The only slight drawback I have with the cable is that it’s a bit stiffer than the original or even something like an Anker cable. However, it’s also cheaper than those two options as well – so it’s a fair tradeoff. We’ve had no issues using it to charge or phones and would certainly buy it again.

High quality on par with far more expensive cables
I have several Amazon Basics cables, all of which are high quality and worth more than they cost. On par with brand name higher priced cables. Keep up the quality, and I will be back for more!

Amazon Refunded Me 11-Months Later
It was my go-to charging cable for 11 Months. Until it stopped charging at all. No surface damage could be seen, so internal components must have worn out. Contacted Amazon and they refunded me after I mailed the product back. Was hoping it would last longer than Apple’s own charging cable. It was a Christmas gift too, but it didn’t even last a year so, won’t be ordering any Amazon branded charging cables anymore.

Perfect for car use!
My wife and others passengers frequently use my cord to charge their phones or other such devices. Unfortunately, They just yank it out of the center console to where they need it, and then just jam it back into the console. Finally, the cable suffered a fatal break and had to be replaced.First, of all this cable is very durable. Second, it comes in a neat carrying box into which it can be kept within the console. I expect this cable will last many years.

Updated review… my bad… these are still great
Update: 12/6/2021 4 starsI was scrolling through my reviews and saw that I needed to update this one. I thought these cords were horrible until I realized it was actually my cheap Tripp lite surge protector that was horrible. I realized that any minuscule movement from me while charging my iPad was making the Apple power adapter prongs move or fall out, which meant the iPad would stop charging. This would happen even if I left it charging and walked away. This same charger cable that I’d thought was defective worked perfectly fine after I got rid of that cheap surge protector and bought my usual Belkin. I haven’t had to buy new cables in a long while.Previous review: May 24 2021 one star:I used to be very happy with my Amazon Basics charger cords. I didn’t mind replacing them yearly since I used to go through the Apple kind faster than that. Sadly, the last one I bought on April 8, 2021 didn’t even make it past a month. I also forgot to return it during the return window so now I’m stuck with a charger cord that will only charge my iPad if I place it gingerly a certain way, and don’t touch it.The one I had before this didn’t last a year either. Now I have to find another go to brand. Let me go check to see if Anker makes iPad cords.

Best iPhone charge cables
These are the best charge cables for our iPhones we have ever bought. They are great, they don’t burn out, nor fray at the tips. I have bought so many other cables in the past that are junk. I will never buy any type except these. We have both sizes, 3 and 6 feet, all over the house and in our cars.

Better than the original
Last longer than the apple brand, and it’s cheaper. Comes in different sizes and colors which I like. I’ve always preferred the braided type chargers and the Amazon basics never disappoints. Usually I go through more than 1-2 chargers a year but haven’t with this one. Just bought my 2nd one after a few years.

Good product
I’ve ordered several of these and placed them strategically around my house (and my mom’s); that way I never have to go look for a charger. These are pretty (I have rose gold and baby blue) and they get the job done, and I really appreciate the longer length when I’m using a device in bed or in my favorite chair.They do wear out eventually, though, which is another reason why I got several. When you depend on the same one every day, it does shorten its lifespan, as evidenced by intermittent charging depending on the position of the cord.
