I bought this cable with some trepidation, because I saw reviews reporting that it failed. I thought the L-shaped connector would provide improved durability over a straight cable. When I first plugged it in, it worked for a couple of times, and then became intermittent. Thinking it may have been the power source, I tried different chargers and computers. It suddenly started working reliably, but failed completely after about a week. This is the first time I saw a reversible USB connector, so I tried using it in both orientations. When the reliability temporarily improved, I thought that there may have been a coating on the contact...view more I bought this cable with some trepidation, because I saw reviews reporting that it failed. I thought the L-shaped connector would provide improved durability over a straight cable. When I first plugged it in, it worked for a couple of times, and then became intermittent. Thinking it may have been the power source, I tried different chargers and computers. It suddenly started working reliably, but failed completely after about a week. This is the first time I saw a reversible USB connector, so I tried using it in both orientations. When the reliability temporarily improved, I thought that there may have been a coating on the contact surfaces that was scrubbed off with use, but that would not explain the later complete failure. The documentation claims it contains a "chipset to efficiently control power voltage and provide fast & stable data transmission." If so, this could be the cause of the failure, but I cannot imagine a "chipset" inside these connectors.
I bought this cable today at Hornby, Christchurch and it loses connection for internet connection/ data transfer to a laptop roughly once per half hour when used on a stable desk.
My previous cable (an iPhone one) is held together with tape and the outer shield is breaking apart and it is much more reliable.
I like the L-shape but this cable is faulty.

With the low price, you can't ask for more. But i like it's design and ergonomics to make it easy to use. With the low price, you can't ask for more. But i like it's design and ergonomics to make it easy to use.
You would think that this product would be absolute trash for the price but it is better than my far more expensive cables.
The angle is super convenient and the way you can put it in either way in both ends it is great!
Absolutely great product and super affordable.

My kids always break normal type of cable by crushing the connector between body and iPad during using it charging. I think this sideway type is good idea. Although it’s a bit hard to pull out the connector from iPad. My kids always break normal type of cable by crushing the connector between body and iPad during using it charging.

I have enjoyed using this charger everyday since I got it. Not only does it charge well. But it has an l shaped connector for the phone. I prefer this as it means the phone takes up slightly less space.
The pros of this product are:
- It is red so I can easily identify it - in a world of white iphone cables this is huge, no-longer will I be stealing my workmates cables.
- The Lshaped adaptor - it makes it take up less space on my desk, it also looks better.
- It works! Yes even at this price point it works like a dream - truly it is a great deal.
The Cons:
-The only con is it's such a great product that there aren't any.

Overall if you are on the fence - don't think about it - just buy it.
I bought two cables and one of them became imcompatible after 2 charges... too lazy to go back for change. I bought two cables and one of them became imcompatible after 2 charges... too lazy to go back for change.

Had 2x (1x purchased 1x replaced under warranty) of these both fail with the contacts on the lightning end failing after short use. Had 2x (1x purchased 1x replaced under warranty) of these both fail with the contacts on the lightning end failing after short use.
Great cable. Perfect for use on my phone while watching videos and charging. also got 2 more for the ipads that are setup on stands at work, helps hide the cable.
