USB Lighting Cables - innovative USB made by Apple

USB cables - Universal Serial Bus - is a universal serial bus known for decades, serving as a communication interface. By the time USB was invented, it quickly replaced the old serial ports that were impractical. Over time, a number of different new generations of USB have emerged. Each of them gave us better parameters: mostly higher data transfer speed, but not only. USB cables are the most versatile cables in the world. We use them for practically everything: phones, printers, cameras, laptops and computers, scanners, hard drives and electronic modules.

The USB Lightning cables presented here are an innovation that was developed by the well-known Apple company. Apple is a phenomenon on the global market, and the figure of Steve Jobs needs no introduction. Apple - according to official data - earns hundreds of billions of dollars a year. This is largely due to innovation, because not everyone may like Apple products, but everyone will find them more or less innovative! It is exactly the same with USB cables. USB Lightning are innovative USB cables that are generally only compatible with Apple products.

Apple’s USB Lighting cables

USB Lightning cables were introduced for the first time with the premiere of the iPhone 5 smartphone (2012), so already a good long time ago. USB Lightning cables are slightly smaller than USB-C cables and have a much slimmer design as the connection is only achieved with 8 pins. The connectors are generally symmetrical and compact. Lightning cables were created before the revolution of transferring all connections between devices to the cloud, but nevertheless they are still used and are very popular.

In Botland you will find a wide selection of different types of USB-C Lighting cables manufactured by Apple. As we mentioned, the USB-Lightning cables are made of only 8 pins, which allowed the plug to be significantly slender and double-sided - it is not possible to connect the cable incorrectly. All products are genuine, new and will fit Apple devices. However, it is worth adding that on the market you can also find unofficial electronic constructions that also use this type of connector.

USB Lighting cables - parameters

Which USB Lighting cable to choose? Well, that's a good question! In practice, however, it is worth following the same parameters as when choosing standard USB cables. So it's worth paying attention to the length of the cable. This is a very important parameter, often deciding on the use of the product. If we need a cable to charge the phone, a 1-2 m cable is enough. If we are looking for such accessories for other applications, we should choose longer variants to ensure the highest comfort of use. Another important parameter is the Fast Charge option. If we are already talking about charging a smartphone, then this feature is crucial. Check if the given cable supports Fast Charge charging, which allows for up to two times faster flow of electric charges to the battery! Another important selection criterion is the appearance and adapters. In this category you will find many different accessories, including ready-made kits. Choose the one that will suit your needs best!
