Testing the “classic” iPhone, iPad Syncwire lightning cable

There are a few
weeks, wehave
tested here a Lightning cableallowing synchronization and charging
of the iPhone and iPad. This was an Apple certified cable which had
the advantage of being both robust thanks in particular to an external envelope
protective and rather cheap compared to what Apple offers. All
recently, Syncwire released a new cable that they in turn made for us
arrive for testing.

This one is not particularly remarkable for its resistance or its
originality, but it is even less expensive than the previous one and has
a socket on the lightning side which is smallerand this
can count!

The cable arrives in its little box and unpacked looks exactly like
that of Apple. Same length of 1m for the model tested (it also exists in
2 m), same color. Only an 'S' symbol on the side of the plastic part of the
Lightning socket allows you to differentiate it.

On the side of the USB socket we find a symbol which serves as a key to
know which way to insert it.

In terms of perceived quality, no complaints to be made for the appearance
visual: everything is clear and without burrs.

Compared to Apple's cable, the material is similar and perhaps slightly
less prone to knots.

During use, no problems with insertion to deplore, nor listed
Lightning, nor USB side. In terms of load intensity, the tests carried out
with several chargers and machines (iPhone 6s, iPad Air, iPad Pro) have enabled
to verify that the intensities delivered were exactly similar to the
Apple cable.

We mentioned it in the introduction, this cable has the advantage compared to some of the
market, even others also labeled MFI, to offera catch
lightning sidewhich is exactly the size of the cables
from Apple, it's rare.

The proof in pictures:

Here compared to the "resistant" model of the same brand:

The machine side size is important for everyone whouse
hulls that do not offer a lot of space at the bottom of the
machine.

This is particularly the casedes coques Lifeproof.
Verification carried out, the cable passes on different models of hulls without
problem (iPhone 6 / 6 Plus).

In conclusion, a cable which will undoubtedly be less resistant than its large
brothervu
ici, but for standard use or with a small grip shell
dimension, it will advantageously replace the one offered by Apple at a price
much superior. If plug size is not a concern, we will recommend,
for the small price difference (1 euro),the other
stronger version of the cable.

Note for those who like to match colors, the braided cable is

now available in “rose gold” version!
