What's confusing about "USB C to Lightning Cable MFI Certified iPhone Cable Fast iPhone Charger Cable 20W PD 3/6/10FT Type C Charging & Syncing Data Compatible iPhone 12 Pro Max Mini 11 X XR XS 8 P iPad iPod （White)"?
- dmurray 5y agoI can't tell if this is sarcasm or not. In some ways, this sounds great.
- frosted-flakes 5y agoThat is what a typical Amazon listing looks like. Worse than a browser user agent string, and mostly SEO spam.
- fleddr 5y ago..which only took hours to find on Amazon, and you're sure you finally have the correct one. Then the first review goes "this cable is shit, it doesn't charge".
- BeFlatXIII 5y agoThat first review is identical to the first review on every single other USB-C cable, regardless of brand. It's like the top review of ever single power strip being "I overloaded it and my house burned down". No wonder people take the risk by buying the cheapest option and hoping they win the QC lottery.
- ziml77 5y agoThat isn't a USB problem, that's an Amazon problem.
- Workaccount2 5y agoAnd why I canceled prime and don't use Amazon anymore. It's basically become a flea market done up with the fake shine of questionable reviews. No thanks.
- drstewart 5y agoI thought about calling that out, but it's really both - the reason that these sellers create these horrible titles (which Amazon enables and should address) is because customers don't have a clue what cable they should be buying. If buying a USB cable were dead simple, there'd be much less need for your average consumer to have to specifically search for a cable they know will fit their device (e.g. "fast charger for iPhone")
