For the time being, I will continue to use the Apple branded products. At the moment, for myself, the extra $10.00 premium for the lightening cables is worth the peace of mind. YMMV
 
I saw in one thread that there is a cheap lightning connector exploded , so I want to ask you your 700 Dollar Iphone is worth that ? Go with Apple ;) In case anything happens you can go them .

Guess what? Many "official Apple" wires also exploded in the past.
You think that only aftermarket acccesories malfunction and Apples dont?:rolleyes:
 
I got a cable from the cashback I got on the phone (full price). But I do need another, just for charging.
 
But if the only things you can show that did the damage are Apple, Apple is more likely to replace for free.

True, but that wasnt the point.
All these people saying your phone will blow up and catch on fire using aftermarket wires is nonsense.
I been using monoprice and other usb wires now for years without a single problem. Still working and going strong after many years.
