Since my original Apple cables has unfortunately after 2 years given up the ghost, I came across this cable here. It loads properly and is recognized by my iphone 4s without problems. The plug will fit despite Bumper well into the charging socket on the Iphone. The plug itself also makes a fairly stable impression. One disadvantage I find, however, is the cable. Unfortunately it is not as soft and pliable as the original. So it's a little awkward to get it quickly pack up somewhere. But otherwise, the value for money is top!
