## Description

Product Description desertcart Basics ABS USB-A to Lightning Cable Cord, MFi Certified Charger for Apple iPhone, iPad, White, 6-Ft From the Manufacturer desertcart Basics

Review: Great Quality and Value – Perfect for My iPhone, But My Cats Keep Chewing Through Cables! - I've purchased these desertcart Basics USB-A to Lightning cables four times now, and I keep coming back because they offer fantastic quality and value. These cables are well made, durable, and charge my devices just as quickly as the OEM cables, but at a fraction of the price. The 6 foot length is perfect for reaching across the room, and they’ve held up well even with frequent use. The only reason I've had to buy them multiple times is because my cats have a habit of chewing through all cables, not just these. It’s not a flaw of the product at all, it’s just a quirky problem I deal with. Otherwise, these cables would last me much longer! For anyone looking for affordable, reliable, and well built charging cables, I highly recommend these. They work perfectly for all my Apple devices, including my iPhone and iPad, and they’re just as good as the more expensive options out there.
Review: Better Deal than Apple Lighting Cable - After my Apple-brand lightning cable wore down (the plastic around the lightning charger side literally started to break off despite normal usage), I bought a replacement cable from desertcart Basics in May 2023 to charge my iPhone 8. I bought the 6ft cable for $7.66 since it was actually cheaper than the 3ft cable at the time, and the cable has been working great. Here's what I noticed about the desertcart Basics lightning cable in comparison to the Apple lightning cable: -The charging speed doesn't seem to be different. -The 6ft cable from desertcart Basics is longer and gives me more flexibility in charging my phone. I can scroll in bed or arrange my desk differently. -The cable is thicker and feels more durable. If I accidentally yanked on Apple's lightning cable, I would freeze in fear that I ripped it. With this cable though, I would not have to worry about this (although it's long enough that I don't even yank on it in the first place). Although I would like the cable to be braided (I also got braided desertcart Basics cables in the past to use with my portable charger), this is more than durable enough considering what I paid. -The plastic around the cable is a soft plastic rather than a hard plastic. This makes me feel that the plastic is not going to crack after repeated usage (unlike the Apple lightning cable) -The plastic around the cable is wider on the desertcart Basics cable, meaning that the charger slightly compresses my soft-shell phone case when I'm charging my phone. This was also an issue with the braided desertcart Basics cable I mentioned earlier. While this is only a minor issue for me, it's entirely possible that the charger won't fit if you have a hard case around your device, so consider that before purchasing. Besides the few minor issues I mentioned above, I am very satisfied with this product since I am essentially getting a cable better than the brand name one for less than 40% of its retail price. I don't expect a deal as good as the one that I got to come around anytime soon, but I'd highly recommend this cable (or at least another desertcart Basics cable) if you are looking for a cheaper yet improved replacement for your lightning cable. This cable, as well as my braided cables bought previously from desertcart Basics, has made desertcart Basics my go-to source of replacement device charging cables.
