Have the cables appointed as 2nd cable, and because I feel the iPad the original cable too short for simultaneous charging and use. The cable is much thicker than the original cable, but first made a solid impression, processing well and everything was great. However, the cable after three months no longer works, instead, the error message that the cable is not certified. A offensichtluche mechanical damage does not exist but. The cable is indeed much cheaper than the original cable, but still too expensive for 3 months.
