The cable that decides whether your 20W adapter actually charges an iPhone quickly, or charges it at the speed of the small brick you replaced. See the rest of our cables and converters.
Fast charging an iPhone requires USB Power Delivery, and Power Delivery requires a USB-C source. A USB-A to Lightning cable physically cannot carry it, no matter how good the adapter is. This is far and away the most common reason people conclude their fast charger is faulty — the adapter is fine, the cable is the wrong shape. A Type-C to Lightning cable rated for 20W is the missing piece, and it will take a recent iPhone to roughly half charge in about half an hour.
480Mbps is USB 2.0 speed, which is what the Lightning connector supports — no cable can exceed it on this port. It is enough for iTunes and Finder backups, photo transfers and CarPlay. If you have ever wondered why moving a large video off an iPhone takes so long over a cable, that ceiling is the reason, and it is a property of the connector rather than of this product.
The connector housings are reinforced where the cable meets the plug. That is the point at which nearly every cable eventually fails, from repeated bending in a pocket or bag, so reinforcement there matters more than anywhere else along its length.
No warranty term is published for this cable through our supply route, so we state none. Our returns policy covers one that arrives faulty.

Because fast charging an iPhone uses USB Power Delivery, and that protocol only runs over USB-C. A USB-A to Lightning cable physically cannot carry it. This is the most common reason people think a fast charger has failed when it has not.
With a 20W or higher USB-C adapter, a recent iPhone reaches roughly half charge in about thirty minutes. The cable is not the limit above 20W — the phone is, since iPhones draw little more than that regardless of the adapter.
It is USB 2.0 speed, which is the ceiling the Lightning connector itself supports. No cable can beat it on this port. It handles backups, photos and CarPlay fine; large video files are simply slow over Lightning by design.
No. Newer iPhones use a USB-C port at the phone end, so you need a USB-C to USB-C cable instead. This one is for iPhones and iPads that still have a Lightning port, along with older AirPods cases.
Yes, with any iPad that has a Lightning port. Larger iPads can draw more than 20W, so charging will be slower than with a higher-rated cable and adapter pairing, but it charges correctly and safely.
