The choice of the lightning cable, the proprietary cable of the Cupertino giant, is one of those things that very often are underestimated. In fact, very often we resort to the purchase of very cheap lightning cables and this could seriously endanger the health of our Apple devices. Obviously, you’re thinking ” yes but $19 for an original Apple cable a meter is exaggerated! ”
This is why today we decided to gather within this guide all the various possibilities that best reflect the quality/price ratio and that have MFi certification.

What is MFi certification?
This is a certification issued by Apple to mark all those products and accessories that meet certain quality and safety standards. To recognize this type of product just check on the box if they have the words ” Made for ” inserted to show the customer that there is full compatibility with Apple devices.
The characteristics of a good Lightning cable
Beyond the aforementioned certification that guarantees its constructive quality, the characteristics to be found on a cable of this type are without any doubt:
- Resistance : It is good to choose a cable that is resistant, especially in the points where the cable joins the connector because it is subject to deterioration, especially when the cable is rewound. In this regard, particularly resistant cables have been put on the market, covered with braided nylon with a reinforced aluminum coating, built to be particularly resistant.
- Cable length : Very often this aspect is underestimated, and we tend to opt for excessively long cables but then punctually we find ourselves having an excessively long cable for our requests and perpetually tangled.
