Customers like the sturdiness of the cable. They mention that it has a sturdy construction, reliable charging ability, and a 2-way zippered pouch. The connectors at both ends are very sturdy, and the cabling itself has extra protection around. The quality of the product is great, and it holds up to months of kid abuse. The head of the cord is reinforced, and has held up to kid abuse already.

Just buy it already, you know it's going to meet or exceed your expectations.
It is too early to tell if this is a 10 out of 10. I have high standards. But with the quick shipping to my doorstep, the excellent packaging and presentation, the solid texture and feel of each of the components, and smooth charging operations which I am using as I write this review, I am going to give this a 5 out of 5. I got two cords. They fit perfectly in the travel case. By the way the case is very good looking and VERY COMPACT (the product photos are deceiving). Amazing!Only thing I wish Anker would have done was add a similar fitting travel case for their 10-ft cable. I would have bought that in a heartbeat.And please come out with similar braided cable with magnetic tip chargers!But you know what, 6ft is soooo much better than 3ft. So far, I am impressed and delighted by a Charging cable. And it takes a lot of technical skill and quality to do that. Nice job Anker!If anything goes awry, I'll update my review accordingly but I'm not expecting it. When other users said Apple should have included this quality grade of cable with their phones and tablets, they are 100% CORRECT! You are going to ask yourself WHY you went so long using shoddy OEM cables from Apple.Now, Anker...when are you going to upgrade ALL of your other useful cables to Powerline+ II ? I want to see it all! USB-C to USB-C, and the other commonly used iterations.I went ahead and also picked up an Anker 6-port PowerPort 6 IQ-charger and as one would expect both work very well. Currently charging an iPhone 6s+ and IPad Pro from 2016.Loving it!UPDATE December 2018: I’ve been using the 6 and 10 foot cables from this Powerline+ II product series rigorously at home, work, and travel and I have not had a single problem. Saved my neck on several occasions. I’ve recommended these to numerous people. I have family members fighting over who gets to use my cables when they visit.Word of caution: Amazon is now selling a knock-off copycat version competing with Anker’s cables. Don’t buy them, they’re not in the same league as these. You might save a couple dollars but if you read some of their reviews you’ll notice that not everything is amazing about those knockoffs.Update March 2019: Still work perfect. I have been rough with them. No issues. I’ve had 2 apple lightning cables fail since last year and this cable has become my fail-safe.

Reviewed in the United States on November 25, 2018
purchased this cable with the hopes of it being high quality.

So far I’m very happy. The feel and look is spectacular. You can tell it’s well made. It has a thicker diameter than my other braided cables. It has good flexibility and stays were you bend it with only a little memory. The braids are tight and the material used is silky and very soft. It’s hard The Velcro tie down is also very nice and own and ruin the cable .

The Velcro tie down is also very nice and a good feature to have. I know I will be using

Compared to most other brands the connection Rods on the inside are much thicker/heavier. It will take a long time to wear them down. When connected the usb jack will be snug and stay tight for much longer and maintain a good solid transfer of power/data. The lightning side fits secure as well.

I was able charge with multiple devices. No problems with the phone not being recognized.

I have the iPhone 7 with the Otter box “slim” hard case. No problem with connecting the cable for Sync/charge.

Another bonus is the pouch, FYI, the pouch ONLY comes with the 6” and 3” NOT 10”. The pouch is soft and just as well made as the cable. Both zippers Slide very easy and smooth. Simple to coil and place inside the pouch in order to adjust the length to be large or small. Just by pulling or pushing the cable back inside it. I like that the logo is there but subtle. I may end up using it to store my external power supply, I’m not sure yet. I would like more of these pouches.

I have only just got it so I hope it does last. From the sounds of their customer service, if I have any problems, I will have nothing to fear.

I added a picture comparing the top shelf lightning MFI certified double braided sync/charge cables.

Il prodotto è arrivato nei tempi stabiliti, in perfette condizioni sia di imballaggio che di contenuto.
Non l’ho ancora provato, quindi non sono in grado di recensirne la robustezza e la durabilità. Esteticamente è gradevolissimo e di buona manifattura. Trovo anche molto comoda la sua custodia. Se il cavo funziona correttamente, allora il rapporto qualità-prezzo è davvero eccezionale!
