Can they stop with this MFi nonsense? Almost none of these cheap brands have money to pay Apple for certification BUT more importantly they won't be able to pass it anyways due to very shady quality (some cables work, some break within few months or so).
Not getting the charging error message doesn't mean it was certified by Apple.

Q: Will these cables work on an iphone 12?
A: Yes, you can work on iphone 12, but this is not a quick charging cable for USB c to lightning, but it is charged faster than ordinary cables.

I did not think a cable has to be quick charging . I mean I can see it being a bottleneck but figured the charging brick was more important

ReviewMeta doesnt find anything wrong with their reviews.

However common sense tells me there are a lot of fake reviews - put the word "quick" in the search/question bar and click on show 10 matching reviews and see how similar they are

Apparently, there's a guy who works at the Chinese factory who had his name officially changed to MiFi.

They pay him a few bucks to certify cables.

Yeah probably that's the case. I don't mind them saying all other BS adverting that these can hold a whole wheel but apparently can't be faster than USB 2.0 data speeds,MFi outright lie is already too tiresome as well. In any case as Apple switches to USB-C output adapters and cables (adapter end) the excess of these more basic A cables with questionable quality that can't support QC and PD protocols will drive their prices even lower.
Main issue with these is their inconsistent quality, you can have 15 working great but then get 5 that fail within few months, it's just matter of if you're lucky enough to get working ones or not so your review will reflect it.
Lately the sellers keep doing anything possible to gain good reviews like free stuff if one leaves positive review or removes the negative one, sometimes even money or shopping credit so it's harder to figure out why they left good review in the first place.
