I picked up a couple of these a couple of weeks ago, had a 10% off, free shipping, so $10.88 each to my door.

Build seems at least as good as Apple, the housing around the Lightening connector is a little bigger, so it’s easier to hold/remove, but if you’re using a thick case with a really tight cutout, it might inhibit plugging in.

Like that they’re available in black too. I wish they’d offer the multicolor in 3’ (vs. only in 6’)

I got two on ebay a couple weeks ago for $8 each. Certified too which was surprising. They work perfectly.

my only complaint with the amazon ones the cords are stiff and that can cause some issues.

I just heard about this ebay deal today and bought one -- certified, free shipping, $8.99. 3ft Apple Lightning cable. Cheaper than the $19 MicroUSB to Lightning adapter I was gonna buy on Friday (since I have a ton of old micro USB cables lying around).

Fake.

The Tech Armor braided is the best deal. Lifetime warranty. Stout design.

Monoprice is also lifetime but not built that well.

We've used the Mono price cords for about three months now. They work great. The only thing I don't like about them is that they are a little stiff. On the other hand, they come in several different colors.

Not sure how good this is or isn't, but with a 4 star rating and 263 reviews, must work pretty well. Came out to $14.99 on Prime and has a nice led indicator at the end of the phone portion of the connector that blinks red when charging and stays blue when charged.

I just need a cable for charging on the go, so no need to quick charge, which this cable does not do.

Not Apple Certified, I recommend not getting.
