Looking to buy a iPhone XS / iPhone XS Max MFi Lightning cable? Here are the best options available under one roof. They’re all MFi-Certified, meaning they have a stamp of approval from Apple itself.
Obviously, when that iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max arrives on your doorstep, the white Lightning cable that ships with your phone is not going to be enough. You’ll need one for your car, your bedside table, your coffee table, your kitchen etc. The point is: you are going to need a Lightning cable and the one Apple sells is a little overpriced and frays easily. Today’s list has the best Lightning cable options under one roof, and we’ll kick things off with our favorite brand – Anker.
Anker PowerLine+ Lightning Cable [2-Pack]
This is hands-down the best Lightning cable on planet Earth. It’s built to last and is made from materials that can survive some vigorous tugs. But the cool thing about it is this: it coms in a 2-pack for just $19.99. If you are going for the 6-feet version then you have to shell out ten bucks extra.
