Anker has just introduced a new, luxurious USB-A to Lightning Cable for its US customers. Described as having a sumptuous, silky finish, this cable stands out not just for its touch but also for its impressive durability and resistance to tangles. The cable, measuring 3 feet or 0.9 meters, boasts a data transfer rate of 480 Mbps and offers robust charging capabilities, particularly for older devices.
Available now on Amazon in the US, the Anker Flow USB-A to Lightning Cable launched after a much-anticipated wait. Earlier this year, the brand released USB-A to USB-C and USB-C to Lightning Upcycled Braided cables, but this latest addition brings a touch of elegance to their lineup.
Although the cable features a data transfer rate of 480 Mbps, it doesn’t offer the peak charging power available with some other cables on the market. However, it does support full charging speeds for devices like the iPhone 8 and AirPods Pro. As for more recent devices such as the iPhone 14 series and iPad Pro 10.5, the charging speed is somewhat limited, likely capping at 12W.
Anker’s Flow cable is MFi-certified, ensuring compatibility and safety with Apple’s range of products. It’s built to last, enduring over 25,000 bends and able to withstand a force up to 220 lbs (approximately 100 kg). The product further includes a silicone cable organizer and comes with an 18-month warranty, providing consumers peace of mind alongside convenience.
Priced at $18.99, the Anker Flow USB-A to Lightning Cable is currently only available in black and in this specific length. While its expansion to countries like the UK, Canada, Australia, or the Netherlands remains uncertain, other Anker cables have already made their way to these markets.
With its sleek finish, reliable performance, and guaranteed durability, the Anker Flow USB-A to Lightning Cable appears to be a promising addition for anyone looking to enhance their tech accessories.
