I just got my charger in the mail and was so happy. Open it up and well it looks cheap, and it was. I plugged it into my iPhone and when it came time to take my phone off the charger, I couldn't get the charger out. Finally after lots of pulling and prying I was able to get it out of my phone. While charging any little bump causes it to stop charging. Don't waste your money on this product.

This product is an utter waste of time, money, and resources. I bought two, having used lots of generic cables in the past without any significant problem. But I've never seen a cable as cheaply made as this. You can see it in the materials and the manufacturing quality.

The iPhone connector wouldn't mate properly with my iPhone. There seems to be some irregularity that prevents the connector from inserting properly. For a few minutes I tried gingerly to wiggle it and get it to fit, but it was kind of grinding and I decided that it wasn't worth the risk of damaging the delicate connections on my phone.

I'm not going to even bother trying the other cable. After experiencing the poor quality I don't want to risk damage to my phone.

The only remaining question is whether I will take the time to return them to Amazon or just dump them in the trash.

Loved the connectors. Worked nicely. The delivery of items faster than expected. Very pleased with this transaction. And I look forward to shopping again in the near future.

The cord to my iphone started to get frayed, so I figured I'd replace it. Little did I know it would be $19+ tax at the Apple store. Yikes. I saw cheaper non-apple cables for $12, but $3 including shipping??? I admit it, I was skeptical. But, for $3, I figured I would take a gamble and place the order. The cable looks just like the apple one, I can't tell them apart. I'm guessing the $3 one isn't the real deal, but who cares? It works!

I read earlier reviews saying that the cord did not work. Perhaps the product has changed?

This cable is (a) NOT an Apple-made cable, (b) NOT iPhone compatible (you can tell by looking at the pinouts - the iPod connector has 4 active pins on the dock-end of the cable, the iPhone connector has 5) and is (c) NOT reliable.

A Dock connector cable for iPhones (as opposed to a simple charging cable) requires 5 active pins (you would see a copper conductor at positions 4, 6, 8, 10 and 15). This cable has the standard iPod conductor arrangement (4,6,8,15).

The unit would not permit sync for either my iPhone or my iPod, and would only charge my iPod when connected to the AC converter, and even then it was twitchy (would drop and restablish charging without any stimulus).

Wish there were a zero-star review.

Point being, spend the money - get an Apple cable or go with a well-known 3rd-party brand like Griffin or Belkin.
