UGREEN 60765 USB-C to Lightning Cable, 90-Degree Connector, 6 ft

For iPhone, iPad and AirPods users who need a Lightning connection from a USB-C charging source, the UGREEN 60765 combines charging and data transfer in a 6 ft cable. Its MFi certification and support for PD fast charging make it a practical choice for compatible Apple devices.

The 90-degree Lightning connector sits close to the device, while the nylon braid adds a protective outer layer. Need to use your phone while it’s connected? The angled design can make gaming or watching videos more comfortable by keeping the cable directed along the device rather than straight out from the port.

Key takeaways

This USB-C to Lightning cable is MFi certified and supports charging and data transfer. It is listed as compatible with iPhone 6 through iPhone 14 series models, including iPhone SE, as well as selected iPad, iPad Air, iPad mini and iPad Pro models, and AirPods. Check that your device has a Lightning port and that your charging source uses USB-C.

The 6 ft length gives you room to position a connected device, while the grey nylon-braided cable is designed for everyday handling. UGREEN also reports testing the cable for more than 15,000 bends and 10,000 plug-in and unplug cycles, these are useful durability details, not a guarantee of service life.

Practical tips

For a neater connection while using a phone, orient the right-angle plug so the cable follows the edge of the device. This shape is also intended to reduce bending at the connector. When choosing between this and a straight-ended cable, consider how you usually hold or position your device: the angled plug is particularly useful when a cable that projects directly from the port gets in the way.

The cable supports data transfer rates up to 480 Mbps, so it can also serve for syncing or moving files between a compatible Lightning device and a USB-C connection. For charging, pair it with a USB-C power source suited to your device and charging needs.

Best use cases

Use it at a desk, bedside or sofa when you want to charge a Lightning-equipped iPhone or other compatible device from a USB-C source. Its right-angle end is handy when holding a phone during a game or video, and the 6 ft cable helps when the charging point is not right beside where the device is being used.

It also suits users who want one cable for charging and syncing compatible Apple devices. The broad listed compatibility covers several generations of iPhone, iPad and AirPods, while MFi certification identifies it as designed to meet Apple’s accessory requirements.

Practical questions

Which devices can I connect? The cable is listed for iPhone 6 to iPhone 14 series models, including iPhone SE, plus selected iPad, iPad Air, iPad mini and iPad Pro models and AirPods. The device needs a Lightning port, and the other end connects via USB-C.

Can it transfer data as well as charge? Yes. It supports data transfer up to 480 Mbps, alongside charging, for compatible devices.

What is the benefit of the right-angle connector? It directs the cable along the side of the device instead of straight out from the port, which can make the connection less intrusive while you hold or watch the device.

Buying verdict

For everyday charging and syncing across compatible Lightning devices, the UGREEN 60765 brings together MFi certification, a 6 ft reach and a right-angle connector. Choose it when you want a USB-C-to-Lightning cable with a braided finish and a plug shape suited to using your device while it charges.
