stay safe

Didn't Apple develop these so people couldn't use knock off cables? Are companies already able to replicate them and get around that safeguard for Apple?

Yea are these safe to use if they're not apple made?

I'm in no rush

Thanks !

mixed reviews but I never had any issues with generic cables. Probably the same source as apple cables.

waiting for a black version for my car. white cables are tired.

ordered 3, fine returning them if they don't work.

I'm going to wait until these cables are $2 or less before ordering a few. I don't own any iDevices and never will but it's good to have them in case you have someone over/in your car and needs a charge.

I'll be fine. I went through a similar ordeal and ended up getting a refund without shipping it back. Ended with 3 fake iphone headphones lol.

i heard somewhere it could void your iPhone warranty if you use generic, and the phone can tell if you do. anyone know if this is true?

No. They developed them so the could have an all digital connection and a smaller port. It's a cable. There is no "safeguard" for Apple. That is a misleading word in itself. It's like your saying a cable not made by Foxconn (Apple doesn't make anything) is somehow not safe. I'm sure they would like to put a "profitguard" in their cables. It's a cable, just like an HDMI cable or any other cable. It is wires soldered to pins. That's all.

It really pisses me off when people make offhanded comments like this. That's how rumors get started that are completely false. Are you trying to make someone think twice about buying a cable the is probably made in the exact same factory and is identical to what they would buy directly from Apple?

Are you a troll? Are you an Apple employee? Are you just a loyal Apple sheep?
