Bought this to allow new Lightning connector devices to hook up to a factory Lexus system with a 30-pin connector. Works perfectly (just wish it was a little longer), allowing me the same control over device, song information on the vehicle's display, and charging ability.

I had to look all over the Metroplex to find this product. Again I was able to turn to Best Buy to find it. I needed this particular product because I have an Otter Box cover and a standard converter will not fit. I am totally satisfied with my new adapter cable.

I needed a way to marry my iPhone 6 to my Bmw vehicles. Unfortunately BMW is behind on connectors for the iPhone 6 so I had onl the connection for a 5. Th`is lovely item allowed me to connect and useand charge my iPhone. Best of all I get to enjoy my audible books.

This cable is really solid and works well as a bridge between the old and new Apple accessories. I use it in my car with my older Alpine head unit and my newer iPhone, with the old photo connection kit and newer iPhone and iPad, etc.. I actually own two of these!

Good thing the CS line was filled with young employees staring blankly into space cuz the assistant who put another item on hold there got it wrong.
Be sure to get a cable that transmits info not a charge only cable adapter. Not even all BB associates know this.

Extend old unit use

We had an old speaker that only took the 30pin adaptor and still wanted to use that unit. So we bought this to make sure we can use our new iPhones on it. The only thing is that it does not stand on the unit anymore but it is fine and it works so we are happy

Only thing that works for Ihome

I've tried other products. This is worth spending the money to get the quality rather than wasting time and money on things that don't work. Wish there was a cheaper option but for I Home devices your apple device won't sinc, charge, or play on your device.

30 Pin adaptor

This 30 Pin adaptor works well to convert the old 30 pin Apple related products (iHome) with the new Firewire sized devices. There is no product issues and works well with iPhone cases that some accessories have issues with while trying to charge with a case on your new iPhone.

Works like a Champ!

I bought this to interface my 5s phone to my cars sound system. The existing system was setup for the 4 phone. Works like a Champ! I really like the cord as the interface is located in my glove box so this gives me some ability to position my phone.

The adapter does exactly what its intended to and worked wonderfully for me. I have a blue-tooth speaker system that has the old 30 pin connection so I was unable to use it until I found this adapter now I can listen to music all over the house.

Let's me use older speakers

I have an iPhone 6 and an older battery powered, portable Bose speaker which I couldn't use with my new phone. The 30 pin adapter allows me to pair my phone and speaker - a much less expensive alternative than buying new speaker. Very pleased.

Exactly what I needed

I needed to adapt a pair of Bose speakers that have the older iPhone/Ipod connector, to use with my new iPhone6. While the Bose doesn't support charging the iPhone6, it works perfectly for music. Also helps adapt existing charging cables I had for older devices. Very handy.

Adapter allows me to use old iPod interface with my new iPhone 6. The sound is very clear and no longer have to use car radio method to play music from my iPhone 6.
Also allows me to use car stereo controls to control playback on my iPhone 6.

I needed a longer cord to replace my phone cord. My old Apple cord was frayed. This was the second time to had to replace it. Hopefully it will last longer. I chose the authentic Apple product because over concerns about off market products.

WHY BUY FROM APPLE

This is a perfect it worked as well as the apple connector, so why would you spend more money on an apple proprietary product? I've used this on many of my apple items I've purchased over the years and have zero complaints with this product.

Apple branded cables a must.

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
I purchased a cheap knockoff cable to connect my new iPhones to my older Bose dock. It charged the phone, but wouldn't tranfer data, even thought it said it would. Only Apple cables seem to work well. This one is even heavier duty than the others. Pricey, but worth it.

Lightning side needs to be narrower

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
I would give it five stars, but since the lightning side is thicker than the standard lightning cable that comes with iPhone 6, it does not fit the phone when it is in its case. I am sure it fits some(that I do not own) but certainly not the body glove case for iPhone 6

Bought this cable to allow me to use my iPhone 6 with some older generation accessories including my iHome sound system. The cable is pricier than the online knockoffs but I haven't had an issues with it. Would have given it 5 stars if it would be a better value.

Nice Adapter

I've been looking for an adapter to replace the one that came with my car. The first one was too short and my iPhone would always hit the center console of the car. This one is a little longer and met my needs.
