Introduction
The Anker A8112 Lightning Cable is a third-party accessory designed to charge and sync iPhones, iPads, and iPods with a Lightning connector. It is made by Anker Innovations, a company that specializes in mobile charging solutions and other consumer electronics. The cable is MFi certified, meaning it has been tested and approved by Apple to meet their standards for quality and performance. It is available in various lengths, ranging from 3ft to 10ft, to suit different needs.
The cable features durable construction with reinforced stress points and a braided nylon exterior for added strength and flexibility. It also has a compact, reversible Lightning connector that can fit into your device securely and easily. The Anker A8112 Lightning Cable is compatible with all devices that have a Lightning port, including the iPhone 12/12 Pro/12 Pro Max/12 Mini, iPhone 11/11 Pro/11 Pro Max, iPhone XS/XS Max/XR, iPhone X/8/8 Plus, and iPad Pro/Air/mini.
Extra Length
The Anker A8112 Lightning Cable comes in various lengths, including 3ft, 6ft, and 10ft, to provide you with different options depending on your needs. The 3ft cable is ideal for charging and syncing your device when it’s placed on a desk or table and is suitable for use in cars or on the go.
Description
The 6ft cable provides extra length to reach devices that are further away, such as those on a nightstand or couch, without compromising your mobility. The 10ft cable offers maximum flexibility and convenience, allowing you to use your device while it’s charging from a distance. This length is great for situations where a power outlet is not close by, like when you’re lying in bed or on a long road trip.
Having different cable lengths allows you to charge your device while using it without being restricted by a short cable. It also provides you with more flexibility to move around and use your device in different positions while it’s charging.
MFi Certified
MFi stands for “Made for iPhone/iPad/iPod” and is a certification program by Apple that ensures third-party accessories like cables, chargers, and earphones are designed to meet Apple’s standards for quality and performance. The Anker A8112 Lightning Cable is MFi certified, which means it has been tested and approved by Apple to work with all devices that have a Lightning port, including the latest iPhone models like the iPhone 12/12 Pro/12 Pro Max/12 Mini, as well as iPads and iPods.
By choosing an MFi-certified accessory, you can be confident that it will work properly and safely with your Apple device. Non-certified accessories may not work correctly or could potentially cause damage to your device or affect its performance. It’s important to note that MFi certification does not guarantee that a product is better than non-certified products, but it does provide a level of assurance that the product has been designed and tested to meet Apple’s standards
