Best Travel Cable
on August 11, 2024
Posted by: Animalcraker
from Rancho Santa Margarita
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the best travel cable that I’ve had. The cord itself is thick and sturdy. In the past I’ve had flimsy cables that were easily damaged and destroyed getting caught up on something. Not only is this cord nice a thick so it won’t get accidentally cut but it’s also tangle free which means the connector ends aren’t going to get pulled out during the unknotting process with all the other cables I have to travel with. I also love the little silicone cord keeper that was included. At first I thought the white color of the cable would be a negative issue for me since I worried about it getting dirty quickly. However it ended up being a major positive and I may have to rethink all my other cables that I own. The white color made it stand out in my bag so I could quickly grab it and get to charging. It also stood out amongst the hotel furniture so it wasn’t accidentally left behind and it didn’t get mixed up with any of my travel friends stuff. The only negative which isn’t that big of a deal is that the charging speed was comparable to most other cables that I own. For that reason it didn’t earn that last star. Speed is normally not an issue for me since I always charge my electronics over night but after waiting hours plus at the airport to board your plane a fast charging speed can be advantageous. Where this cable really excels is the length. That 6.5ft is long enough to reach the third row of our vehicle so my phone can stay charged while the kids play video games during road trips. It’s also convenient in the hotel room when the only working outlet is the one in the far corner of the room hidden behind the chair or floor lamp. Overall this was a great cable and I will be looking to purchase more with other connectors so I can have a complete travel set for all my electronic needs while I travel.

Long fast and strong

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall this cable is just what I was looking for. It is very long which allows me to plug it in under my bed making it very convenient. I love the braided tangle-proof design and the silicone storage wrap that comes with it to tie it up when not in use or being used in shorter form. This cable seems much more durable than most I’ve tried and so far has been working great with fast speed. Just what I needed.

Best Cable Ever

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When I say that this is the best charging cable I mean it. I don’t know how it works so well but I am SO impressed. The cable is very durable with the braided design (which I love)! This thing charges my phone so fast and it’s just a regular USB charger. I’m seriously so impressed with this cord and I wish I would’ve gotten the USB-C version too because I’m going to upgrade my phone soon and the new one won’t use a Lightning port. 10/10. Would highly recommend this charging cable to everyone I know.

Staples Lightning Cable
on August 10, 2024
Posted by: C.M.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Staples Lightning Cable_USB A to Lightning Braided Cable (2) Meter is a perfect cable for charging your iPhone or airPods from a long distance! When your outlet is out of reach this Lightning Cable makes it easy to have your device at your fingertips while charging. The braided design does not get tangled or caught and has a crisp and clean appearance. The braided design also is much more durable than the classic Apple cables that always seem to tear fringe and break. It also comes with an attached rubber tie so you can easily wind up the cable to store or to make it shorter. This feature makes it so handy to make the length just right. I needed to charge my son's iPhone that was completely dead and hadn't been charged in days. Within 6 minutes of connecting the Staples Lightning Cable the phone had enough power to use and function. Within in 30 minutes the battery was over 20% charged and after 1.5 hours was just over 50%. This cable charged the phone way faster than any other cable/ device we have in our home.

Convenient longer cord
on August 10, 2024

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really enjoyed using the USB to Lightening Braided cable. As a first time mom newly postpartum I actually received this just in time to bring it with me to the hospital. I loved it because I could use the thicker lightening block for my iPhone 14 Pro Max and plug this charger in to get a longer reach. It came in handy when I was stuck in a hospital bed for two days! Curious to see how long it lasts relative to Apple but so far so good.

Excellent quality and conveniently sized cord
on August 9, 2024
Posted by: R.C.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am loving this cord! It is a great length - long enough that it can reach from the front of our mini van (where it plugs into the usb port) to the first row of captain’s seats. I feel like the braided style will last longer than the non-braided style charging cord that came with my phone which has split quite a bit around the connecting area. I love the tie that came on the cord that keeps it tidy and coiled when I’m not using it or allows me to use less of the length when I don’t need as much without having a bunch of extra cord strewn everywhere. It charges at about the same medium speed as the cord my iPhone came with. The main downside to this cord is that it is only compatible with iPhones that use the lightning style port to charge (through iPhone 14 I believe). I have an iPhone 15 coming this week that I won’t be able to charge with this cord.

A durable and efficient lightning cable

from DuPont
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] One thing I run through like candy are charging cables as most aren’t made to last. This Staples Lightning Cable USB-A Braided Cable 2 Meter is not one of those it is absolutely made to last. The cable itself is thick and it feels durable for regular wear and tear over time. It doesn’t feel flimsy or like it will fray easily at the base easily. My phone charged much more quickly using this Staples lightning cable than with average chargers. The length is about two meters which I love because it makes my phone more accessible when it needs to charge. My absolute favorite feature is that it comes with a tangle-proof strap that keeps the cord come tangling and makes cord management convenient while still maintaining the integrity of the cord itself. I’m highly satisfied and I would recommend this lightning cable.
