    The cheap ones from Dealz etc. do charge much slower in my experience.

    if you turn off your phone when charging, the dealz ones work

    WTF are you doing with them? 4 OEM cables in 12 mths go pear shaped? No chance, under normal use.

    it's a cable. How could you possibly misuse it, yanking it? They're stupidly overpriced and terrible quality. Cheers for the recommendations on the cheap ones guys, got myself one for 1.50 after paying 30 fecking euro for the last one and it works a dream! Wouldn't go near a knock off charger though :P

    No they don't, dx removed all the "fake" lightning cables after apple threatened them. For a short while they had none for sale and now only approved ones. They start at around €10 which is too much for a non apple cable with a 6 week wait on top. Get loads of stuff of dx but lightning cables I'll get elsewhere...
    Btw if you're looking for a cable and charger you're better of getting this for less: http://www.currys.ie/Mobile/Product/jbl-onbeat-micro-portbl-speaker-dock-with-lightning-connector-andndash-black/317115/186.1

    Was actually gonna suggest tmart, but have only gotten 2 things of them so far. 1 item doesn't work at all, the other one was a lighting cable that wasn't reversible (only worked with one side up) and broke quite quickly. Even when it was working it would not charge my iPad. It was one of those 3 mtr braided cables. Anyone any good experience with them?
