I am in the industry and I can tell you that It is definitely fake.
So far Apple doesn’t authorize any third party for the type-c to lighting cable. You know, they want to hold all client inside their ecosystem.
I see,yeah when i open the box the strip hasn't open smoothly,Then i suspect it,And then watched this
it's the same except mine got Designed by Apple in California Assembled in China on the Cable,Then i thought if i return this how can i explain it to them because they will ask me for sure how do you know this is a fake.Thanks a lot for your help mate.
