A good cable to connect iPhones to chargers and computers must have one quality above all: not to break. Despite the great progress made to give us more resistant cables – like these – we all sooner or later find ourselves with a cellphone that no longer charges and a broken cable right under the connector, where the actual cable begins. The cables almost always break there, at the point where the cable bends “in L” to adapt to the positions in which we hold the cell phone while we are at the desk or in bed. They break and we are reduced to mending by wasting rolls of electrical tape.
According to Steven John of The Strategist, the shopping reviews section of New York Magazine, the problem is that we've always approached the problem the wrong way: instead of focusing on wires that hold up when bent, we should have thought about wires right away. that do not need to be bent “to L”: cables that are already “to L”. Aukey's has the cable that is oriented 90 degrees to the direction of the connector. That is, done like this:
This simple change to the classic cable model means that if you have your phone charging but you still want to use it while in bed, you can do it without putting yourself in awkward positions. It is also very convenient if you are using an app, such as a game, which requires you to keep your phone oriented horizontally.
It is one meter long, covered with braided nylon (still a resistant material) and on Amazon you can buy two for 17 euros. There are in red and black.
If, on the other hand, you want to stick to the traditional design, but still use a more resistant than average cable, try the ones linked below:
