UGREEN USB C to Lightning Cable 1M
Product description
This braided USB-C to Lightning cable from UGREEN delivers fast charging and safer data transfer for iPhone and iPad users who want a durable everyday cable. It supports Power Delivery charging up to 20V/3A according to the manufacturer, and its reinforced nylon braid and aluminium connector shells are built to resist daily wear while remaining tangle resistant.
Key Points
This cable is MFi certified, which confirms compatibility with iOS devices and allows charging and syncing without the warning messages that can appear with uncertified leads. The cable uses the newer C94 Lightning connector design that, according to the manufacturer, improves charging speed and signal quality compared with older variants. Its robust construction is rated for more than 15,000 bends and includes multiple shielding layers to reduce interference and ensure stable power delivery and data transfer.

Advantages
The braided jacket offers greater abrasion resistance and helps keep the cable tangle free during everyday use. Built with a 21 AWG conductor, it lowers internal resistance which supports steady charging when paired with a compatible USB-C PD charger. Data transfer at USB 2.0 speeds is available for syncing or backing up devices while charging. Compatibility covers a wide range of Apple products that use a Lightning port, making this a practical single-cable option for mixed-device households.
Usage Recommendations
Pair the cable with a USB-C PD charger that supplies the appropriate wattage for the device you are charging. For iPhone models that support Power Delivery, the cable can carry higher current when used with chargers rated 18W and above. For safe daily handling, avoid sharp bends near the connectors and unplug by gripping the aluminium shell rather than pulling the cable itself. Consider the 1 metre length when positioning devices for charging, as it balances reach with tidy cable management.
Notes and limitations: the maximum charging figures are those provided by the manufacturer and actual charging rates depend on the charger, device model and battery condition. Data throughput is limited to 480 Mbps which corresponds to USB 2.0 speeds rather than higher USB standards. The cable is intended for devices with Lightning ports and will not fit USB-A or USB-C only peripherals without an adapter.
