Xcentz has been known to produce high-quality cables and other tech-related products for years. In fact, I’ve been using cables for months and I think they bring a lot of value for the price. The brand new USB C to Lightning cable has been working really well with my iPhone 11 Pro. Learn more in our review.
UNBOXING
The cable ships in quite a simple box and inside of it you get the cable itself and some paperwork.
DESIGN, FEATURES AND FUNCTIONALITY
The cable sports excellent build quality. It also has solid metal connectors that don’t seem to break anytime soon.
Xcentz used premium zinc alloy which is way stronger than traditional aluminum alloy. Further, you can always keep the cable folded neatly thanks to the supplied velcro cable management strap.
Another key selling point – a durable braided nylon cable that also looks really nice. In fact, the cable can hold up to 175 pounds (80 KG), which is quite impressive.
Further, the cable can withstand over 30,000 bends which are way more than the traditional cable that can withstand about 6000 bends.
This cable supports Power Delivery (PD) fast charging.
That means you can use this cable with your USB-C PD charger (including Apple 18W, 29W, 30W, 61W, or 87W USB-C Power Delivery charger) to charge your iOS device, and get fast charging for iPhone 11/11 Pro/11 Pro Max/XS Max/XS/XR/X/8/8 Plus, iPads, and later models.
It’s worth noting that the cable is Apple MFi Certified, which means it has the best security chips inside.
Each cable contains an authorization chip (C94) issued by Apple to ensure 100% compatibility with Apple iOS devices.
The cable comes in a variety of colors including blue, red, black and silver. I have the blue one which looks really nice.
The cable also works well with syncing as I had no issues transferring data from my phone to the laptop. I’ve tested the cables with different phones and laptops and they’ve been working without any issues.
All in all, this Xcentz cable is one of the best you can get for your iOS device. Just like their USB-C lineup of cables, this one offers the highest quality for the price and we can definitely recommend you as we use these cables ourselves.
