Aukey Lightning Cable Review

I recently purchased an Aukey dash cam, and joined their TeamTECHKEY community.  It's a group of Aukey product owners that the company sends products to for review.  Aukey sent me some lightning cables to review.  A USB-C lightning cable 3.3 ft, and a 2 pack of 90 degree lightning cables 3.3ft.


The 90 degree lightning cable has a braided cord, which I'm always more drawn to, because they seem to last longer than their plastic counterparts.  The unique thing about this cable is the connectors at both ends are at 90 degrees.  If you're a neat freak, this cable is definitely for you.  It allows for you to easily hide the cable as it won't stick out of your PC or power supply like the regular cables do.

A red and black cable came in the box, along with a circuit key sticker, something that Aukey puts in every one of their products.  Since most USB cables are pretty much the same, it's the extra features like the 90 degree connectors, braided cords, and Aukey branded velcro wrap-around that make it stick out.

The 2-pack is selling on Amazon for $14.99.

The next cable is a USB-C lightning cable that is 3.3ft long.  There really isn't much to say about this cable.  It has the plastic coating, which is fine for a cable, but again I prefer braided.  It sells on Amazon for $17.99.  The only reason I would buy this over the 2-pack would be if I needed a USB-C connector.

Thank you to Aukey for sending me these cables to test, review, and keep.  You can visit their website at https://www.aukey.com
