Ok, I'm just going to stop talking to you because you have no idea about the differences between cables. Your Amazon link is for USB A-to-Lightning cables (which charge slowly because it's USB A) and the brand name is "Tryeah".
And you are comparing them to my nylon braided Monoprice cord with a lifetime warranty? I can see why you paid too much for cables. I was just trying to help you but you've got to be right. Enjoy your "Tryeah" brand cables.
I literally bought monoprice cables (because they are actually USB-IF certified, unlike most) and here you are saying i don’t know how to buy cables.
Those 6’ cables were not on sale when i bought them, and it’s totally unfair for you to compare their sale price to the non-sale price of monoprices lightning version of the exact same cable.
The purpose of the cables on amazon was to show that the lightning connector does not have a substantial impact on price. It’s easy to find cheap lightning cables, even ones that are MFi certified.
I’ve debunked your claims one by one, and you’re trying to weasel out of them on technicalities rather than actually addressing the points you can’t defend.
