Customer Ratings & Reviews

I have another Platinum cable, that is over a year old by now, and it has a premium look and feel with a braided metal design. That is what I was expecting with this cable since the picture doesn’t clearly show the actual cable part, mainly just the connectors. The cable looks and feels like the standard white cable that Apple includes with all their devices. The actual connectors do look premium and are made of metal. What really makes this a cool cable is the LED that is built in around the Lightning connector - a simple touch of it turns on the LED for a few seconds. I don’t know about others; but, I still struggle connecting my iPhone or iPad into the Lightning port when it’s dark - yes, it’s easier than trying to plug in micro-USB; but, still a challenge. It’s a great cable to use at home, in the car, or when traveling. Thanks to the LED, it’s now super easy to do. I do wish Platinum would release one of their metallic cables with the LED built in and hopefully Best Buy will carry it.

This is my favorite iPhone charging cable (and I have purchased many). I often need to plug in my phone in the dark without waking my spouse, and having the LED on the end that turns on when you grab it is awesome. It is pretty sturdy too as my roomba vaccuume sucked it up one day and really beat it up - and it still worked! I only wish BestBuy offered this same cable in a 6' length. Other than that - it is a perfect cable.

My original cord stopped working and I had to buy a replacement. This cord fits my case, and the light is great when having to plug it in after the lights are off. The price made it that much better!

This cord is 4' long so it makes easy to still be on my ipad while charging it. The cord is thick and durable so theres no worry about it breaking. It also chargers extremely fast.

This cord is surprisingly quite durable. I use it constantly and so far no problems. I like the light on the end of cord that helps you see what your connecting to in low light.

The cable works well, so far (after 1 week). The price was good compared to other brands. The light up LED doesn't really matter, although if you were trying to plug it in in a low light situation, it could be useful.

Love the light on the end. Good price. It was a close out price. Don't know why. Anyway it charges much faster than some cables.

I'm not sure how sturdy it will be because it hasn't been put through the test of time yet. Strictly from and appearance standpoint it resembles a standard Apple charger which are not known for being overly durable. But at this point with three months of use I don't have any issues with it. Where this cord stands out is the light at the end where the plug is, I found this to be extremely useful as a cord in the car when you're trying to plug in at night or anywhere you'll be plugging in in the dark.

This is a great charging cable. Its very durable and elegant. And it has a led light to see the charging port in the dark.

Brought this charger to have it in my car and it was well worth the price. Great cable and alot of life to it

I love how fast this charges my devices. The light is super handy and helpful as well.

I love this charger. The length was perfect and I especially like the light at the end of the charger so you can see where to plug it in better.

This is the second time I've purchased this charging cable. We now have a couple of them in the house. They charge quickly and I like the nice little light up feature when you plug it into the phone. It makes it nice to be able to see where you're plugging your phone in if it's a little dark. The cable is a little longer than the standard charging cable your phone comes with- which is a plus.

Bought one of these at one of the Best Buy vending machines at an airport when I lost mine. Instantly loved it for the color and how it lights up at the tip. Very convenient when ur charging or need extra light at night. It’s not that bright but just enough. Btw I have 2 of them

It's a long charger. At the very tip where you connect the charger to your phone it was a little light that lets you see at night to connect it to your phone. Not much of a price difference compared to the apple lighting cable. But if you're trying to save a couple of bucks then get it.

The convince of a light, the length is perfect and I have seen no performance issues

I like the LED light feature that guides you to the slot to plug it in. Seems study and works well with my device, iPod Gen 6 but should work with most iPhones as well. I just use it with my desktop since I already have an apple connector to roam around use. Nice device though over priced...

Works very well just like the apple brand cable. Charges my phone very quickly and the best feature is the light at the charging port which makes it very easy to plug in. I purchased this as an open box item and looked like brand new upon receiving it through the mail. Highly recommend !

Works for now. Most get broken at the phone plug in. We shall see

Wasn't sure if this was a good buy or not, but getting ready to order two more. The light at connection is a great feature that helps my old eyes. I don't have to use my glasses when trying to find the port to connect. Love it
