SKEPTIC IS NOW A BELIEVER!
THIS IS AN UNBIASED REVIEW FROM A PRODUCT SAMPLE SENT BY THE COMPANY I was concerned that another non-Apple cable would be a dud. I purchased them before and was pretty upset that the non-Apple cables just didn't work and it says so when I plugged it into my iPhone. I went to Apple and paid $21 for a half-meter cord. So here comes the ZeroLemon cable to the rescue, albeit a 10' black cable. I ran it through the usual tests: charging, downloading, uploading, synching and all of that. Then I did some not-so-usual tests: yanking, pulling, bending, creasing, smashing in a car door, etc., not that these things would actually happen to a cable. However, the ZeroLemon cable performed perfectly. The cable itself is thicker and appears more durable than the Apple white. Also, the plastic surrounding the plug is just a bit bigger and this may be an issue for those with cases that would only fit the Apple white plug. This isn't a problem for me since my case does not cover the bottom. It may be a problem if your current Apple white cable along with a case fits just right. (See pictures #11 & #12) I've contacted TechArmor regarding their cases and the larger plug ends. TeacArmor stated that their cases are designed to handle the larger plugs for the non-Apple accessories and this is quite a relief since the Apple cables are just so darn expensive. It seems that most cases made today are accommodating the larger plug. The other benefit is that the cable is black. I know that Apple likes the white cable but it just screems "Hey, look at me. I'm attached to a really valuable Apple device that everyone in the world would want so come and take me." Having the black cable makes it more invisable to those looking out for Apple products in public, hence a disguised exsistence. This is a long cable but not an issue. I've used it along with an iPad and it's great to have a bit of distance from the plug during a recharge while in use. Overall, this cable is excellent in quality, durability and much less expensive than the genuine Apple cable. It is worth considering.
