Genuine lightning cable with 90 degrees on the USB side

Apple don't make one, although It would be an idea. You are right to steer clear of the cheap knock offs...It's easy to tell, the feel of cable is cheap and rough.
Would this work:

Thanks. But it will not fit in my car
.That's why I'm searching 90 degree USB with no luck :/

That would be a tuff find. It also wouldn't be "genuine" cable, it would be a brand name cable. Genuine sounds like you want Apple to make one.
Oh no, I don`t mind that it would be a brand name cable, just want it to work like the original cable (without any warnings).
90 Down Lightning Connector
Has anyone heard or seen a 90 degree down lightning connector yet? I sometimes use my iPad positioned against my abdomen while it is charging and am concerned about the bending stress of the straight lightning cable and the iPad socket. Plus it is a little uncomfortable. Thanks.

Thanks Zmanbaseball2
Thank YOU Zmanbaseball2! Though the lightning end is not a 90 degree "down," it is 90 sideways. It will work. I appreciate it.

That is about as far away from genuine as you can get.

What do you mean? 100% not certified? If has the Made for iPhone, iPod and iPad logo on the box, it means that it is. Startech is a reputable company IMO. Amazon requires papers that says that the product is certified by apple before they are able to list it for purchase. Are you trying to prove something?
The is also a certified mfi cable, it is 90 degrees toward the back, rather than the side.

Slapping a made for sign does not mean the cable is licensed by Apple. Plain and simple.
I think it needs to be MFI certified to officially work with all apple products to avoid the warning of unsupported accessory..
