It also seems to charge my iPad significantly faster than the previous 6' cable I was using, although I have not measured this objectively. I guess some manufacturers use smaller gauge wire?
In any event, I would recommend it.The issue with lots of third-party iPhone sync cable is that the plug can be thicker or wider than the original iPhone cable's plug, making it not fit the opening of some iPhone cases. I have a Lifeproof case (love it!), and that was the issue I had with cables like AmazonBasics 3.2 feet 1.0 Meter USB Charging/Sync Cable for Apple iPod, iPhone, and iPad.
This cable has no such issue. I didn't measure it with a ruler or anything, but as far as I can tell, its plug has exact same width and thickness as the original Apple cable plug, so it should have no problem plugging into any cases you have. The plug is slightly longer than Apple's, but that's a good thing. It means the plug won't be "buried" deep in the case when plugged in, and you won't have to yank the plug by the wire to unplug, which I had to do with the original Apple cable and Lifeproof case.
The cable itself is built with sturdy material that easily should last me until the time I upgrade my iPhone to a Lightning connector model. And 6-foot length is perfect for me. I am very pleased with this cable. Highly recommended.Don't know about iPhone charging any faster, but this cord is definitely sturdy and will obviously outlast the Apple cords we get with their new devices. Glad I spent the extra money for this since we've got so many Apple products that use this connection.Finally a cord that is worth the money spent!
Price-I have purchased between 5-10 charge.sync cables from amazon, ranging from $1-6. All have have issues either they overheat my phone, the connection between the charger head and cable becomes loose and wires get exposed, or they just stop working after a couple of months. Let me be clear this is NOT the case with this cord. And its available through prime need I say more?
Convenience This cord is 6foot long, which makes it perfect for Desk/Office Charger, Hotel Rooms, Airplane/Airport, and particularly when charging near your bed if you don't have a dock. Highly reliable due to the thickness of the cord and connections.
Save yourself the frustration and spend the extra money for this cord. Highly recommended.
PS.. if anything fails with this cord over time, I will be sure to update this review.
**UPDATE 5/10/13 Cord is still charging and going strong 4 months later. Very pleased with this product!***Tired of trying to find a spare wire charger for i-phone that would fit my Lifeproof case and don't want to spend $40 with @pple, this is the wire. Amen.
