Customer Ratings & Reviews

The Belkin Duratek Plus Lightning Cable is incredible. It truly feels like a quality cable, which is to be expected from a company like Belkin, but also for the price. It has a woven exterior and thick protective ends. The cable is a bit longer than the Apple brand cable, which was really a plus for me. It also comes with a nice leather strap to tightly store the cable wherever you go. I do not doubt one bit that this cable will last a while. This is truly a great investment, especially if you like carrying your charger around with you. I would definitely recommend the Belkin Duratek lightning cable to anyone.

The Belkin DuraTec Plus lightning cable for iPhone & iPad works as expected. It quickly charged my iPhone 7plus. The 4' length adds just that little extra that I don't get with typical 3' cords. The woven cord seems like it would be durable and last longer than a typical wire cord and it doesn't tangle. It comes with a little snapping leather strap to store the cord which is nice. It seems very well made at both connectors. I'm not certain if the lightning end would fit into certain cases for charging... like Otter. It fit into my CaseMate case perfectly. If the cats don't chew this, it will last a good long time... Which it should for the $$. If it does, it's money well spent. Highly recommend!

Got this cable because our last cable, which was much less sturdy, got all kinked up and looked to be presenting as a fire hazard. This cable arrived packaged very nicely and presented as a premium product. Opening it up I was very impressed with the cloth cover and the overall sturdiness/thickness of the cable. I do not think this cable will have the same issues as the cheaper, thinner one that afflicted my last cable that this one is replacing. I was also impressed with the little snap, which reminds me of the snap that one would have on a blue jean jacket. It's nice to be able to tidy up the cable as you see fit and the fact that it is attached to the cable means that you won't lose it. Ultimately "installing" the cable simply meant plugging it into my computer and then my phone and it worked great. I tested it for a while and it provided full charging abilities to my iPhone Max XS. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

The Belkin DutaTek Plus Lightning to USB-A Cable + Strap is a very high quality cable that should provide years of service. The cable is made with Aramid fibers tightly woven and very flexible. I had no problem using it both for charging and transferring data. The cable comes with a leather strap that does not come off the cable and makes it easy to roll up for storage or travel. I have two issues for this cable. One is the price however, I can understand that with the cost of premium cell phones today it makes sense that you would want to use a high quality cable from a trusted brand. This surely meets that criteria as most Belkin products are very well made especially there Apple accessories. My other issue is the speckled color used on the connectors. Some might like this but it just seemed a bit out of place to me. Overall though I have had great luck with Belkin products over the years and I found this cable both versatile and very well made. The 4FT length is long enough to charge and use your phone at the same time but not so long that you would get tangled up in it. This is a very nice cable but the price might keep some away.

I am thrilled with this cable! It is all I wanted, all along, and in one package. Mine is white, speckled with gray, and it looks great. Why is this so special? The leather strap to keep it rolled up is very thoughtfully designed, and well made for daily use. The area we all grip to remove and or plug in our phones is perfect, hard plastic and able to be gripped and pulled without jeopardizing the cable! Plus it is molded around a heavyweight cable protector, seems like it will last for a long time. Belkin includes a 5 year warranty, unheard of prior to this. Oh, and it is 4 feet not 3, most of us need that extra foot to get from a charger to our phones or iPads. Amazing job Belkin!

This cable looks good, is great quality, and has built in cable management. It cost a little more than a basic cable, but it is worth it. All of the cables that came with my Apple phones failed near the connector. This one has a strong fiber jacket, but is just as flexible as the original cable. The cables connectors have lite speckles of gray and the leather strap has a gunmetal like clasp. It is a good look. The leather strap is snuggly mounted to one end, but can slide a bit, if you like to leave a little cable at each end. It really works to keep the cable neatly wrapped.

I travel quite a bit and I also tend to wear out cables quickly. The Apple lightning cables typically end up fraying at the end by the Lightning plug and I have several that are patched up with electrical tape. I jumped at this Duratek cable because I’ve had a great experience with the Duratek Apple Watch cable. There are some definite pluses as well as some cons to be aware of when you pick this cable up. The cable is thick and covered in a solid feeling braided fiber. At times this is both a blessing and a curse. From a reliability stance, the thick braided cable feels nice and sturdy. However, this also makes weaving and using the cable a bit of a challenge because it’s not as pliable and thin as the Apple Lightning cables. I opted for the 6 foot cable because I’ve found that spacing can be an issue, especially in hotel rooms where outlets seem to be placed at the most random of places. While that length is overkill for use in say, my car, it’s nice because I’d rather have a longer cable and not need the extra length, than a cable that is too short. Additionally, the Duratek cable also comes with a leather snap-strap which makes bundling up excess cable nice. It also makes it easy to travel with. Belkin also makes a 4 foot variant of the cable, which would be better for folks who don’t need the extra 2 feet. Again, I would go for the longer cable since you can always use the leather snap-strap to bundle up the unused portion. Something else to be aware of if your phone is in a case, the Lightning tips on the cable are a bit thicker than the Apple ones. We tested it on my wife’s iPhone XR Lifeproof case and it fit - but depending on the size of the covering around the lightning port, your mileage may vary. All in all, it’s a solid cable that feels nice and thick and has become my default traveling / camping Lightning cable to use. It also comes with a 5 year warranty, so I guess we’ll see if the Duratek is as much a road warrior as I am.

All in all this cable is good. Its not made of a cheap plastic on the outside, but rather a nice nylon material that enforces the strength of the cord. Its also no flimsy like other cables ive used in the past. The cable comes with a little leather button loop that holds the cable in a secure bundle too, this makes storage easy. All in all, a nice solid build and a smooth outside makes this cable worth picking up.

The Belkin Duratek Plus Lightning Cable is just what I have been looking for in a lightning cable. I have always had issues with having to replace my lightning cables due to fraying or other connectivity issues. This cable is built to last and is very durable and easily transportable with the convenient strap that wraps around the cable.

This Belkin Duratek Lightning cable is a great option if you are looking for a new or extra lightning cable. It is elegant, and the included leather strap to tie it up for stow is a nice touch. All the materials used for this cable feel premium and strong. I can foresee this cable lasting me as long as I own my iPhone / iPad. Charging and data transfer all work as they should. No errors or compatibility issues with the cable. Belkin offers a 5 year warranty for this product! Pros - Elegant Design Strong bend and tangle free material Leather Tie 5 year warranty Cons - None

I am very pleased with the charging cable. This is certainly a high quality product, that is stiff enough to offer the support you expect in a quality cable but flexible enough not to restrict your movements.

Good quality material, very hard and long lasting cable and also long enough for a daily use, perfect for traveling and also with a lot of style

This charger cord was what I needed while traveling. It seems sturdy and is definitely long enough.

Nice charger cables. Appears to hold up well. Good length.

Nice cord great quality love that I’m not scared to break it!

Durable cable that works well. Length is just right for the car, but the material has frayed slightly since purchasing.

The cable is very sturdy and long. Good purchase..

This cable is miles better than the Apple charging cables. It was a little pricier but I foresee it lasting for a really long time. It seems to charge faster than the Apple cables as well. Without a doubt it’s 10x more durable and I don’t see myself having to buy a new one again. Will be picking up a few more for sure!

Somehow you can never find a lightning cable thats long enough but this one is pretty close. Has a nice texture coating and the leather wrap keeps the cable neat and free of shorts. Belkin does a great job as a third party manufacturer of a wide range of peripherals

This cord is long and durable. No more laying close to the wall while phone charges.
