The charging cable is externally almost indistinguishable from the original. The famous white color, the connections, even a USB and even the Lightning connector there are no differences. The cable itself is 200 cm long, which I find a comfortable length for synchronizing and / or charging the Iphone because I find the normal lengths of 80 or 100 cm straight while charging too little especially when the device loads and I use this still thus fiddle are the 200 cm quite practical.
Terms of quality there is nothing negative to say, the cable has already been mentioned above a normal USB plug and the Lightning connector. They fit easily in my power charger adapter and the Lightning connector into the iPhone. Both have the right / right size, that is, the contact is also the same as it wobbles nothing is nothing slips. Also in data transmission, there are no problems here.
Practically in this cable I find that behind the respective USB connectors is a plastic reinforcement, it is designed to prevent a cable break. Differences between the original and this charging / data cable, I personally can not find out that this is more favorable here pricewise, individual comparisons showed me price differences with the original cable of up to 22.49 euros on there's this here quite a bargain. Conclusion thus: It can compete with the original cable in any case, it is cheaper and works that's important to me, therefore, recommended.
