Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

It seems Lightning cables all eventually break after a couple of months of use in my house. We have three kids that test the limits of any charging cable, so when you find a good one, it pays to stick with it. I've been using various Anker cables for the past year and I have yet to have one fail or start under delivering after constant use and abuse form the kids. The Anker PowerLine cables are built better than the cables Apple provided with the device. I have a USB meter that helped me prove that as well. I can only get about 1.7 Amps when charging my iPad when using an OEM Apple cable. I can get almost 2.4 Amps when using one of these Anker cables, This would allow your device to charger quicker since more juice is being delivered through the cable. What I like: 1. the cables are well built and durable. 2. They can charge devices quicker since they are capable of delivering more current than the stock cable or other inferior cables. 3. I love it when Anker supplies the Velcro straps with cables. What could use improvement: 1: I really have not found anything bad yet. I've used other PowerLine series cables and they all work really well. Remember, Your charging will only be quick if all of the components being used are quality components, so your weakest link will detumine your charging speeds. If you use a cable that is capable of delivering 1 A, then a 2 Amp charger will only deliver 1 Amp and vise versa. Don't skimp on your cables. I've tested many cables that will only deliver 1/2 Amp so your device will charge very slowly, and I promptly dispose these under-performing cables. The Anker cables will help you get optimal charging if used with a quality charger.
