Review: MFi certified so data compatible and ideal for connecting iPad to drone controller - I bought this cable to connect to my drone controller to keep the cable clear of catching on my hand when holding the controller and iPad together. It's excellent the 180 degree turn of the lightning connector is solid and sturdy, and the cable is flat profile so perfect for the job. Have only been using it a few days, but have given 5 stars for durability as I have had numerous Anker cables which have been in use for extended periods with no issues, and the build quality and materials of this cable appear no different to any other Anker products I have, so I have no reason to doubt its reliability. In any case, it's backed by the Anker warranty (not that I've ever had to use it) Price wise, you get what you pay for - not only the unique shape of this particular cable which was exactly what I wanted, but it's very easy to be drawn to the cheap option only to find it breaks, or worse, damages your device, hence for what it is, 5 stars for value. The only downside for me (but which is nothing to do wit the product itself) is that it's 3ft long, so I have to coil it up behind the controller - but there doesn't seem to be any shorter version available, but that's a specific gripe with my specific usage and no reflection on the quality of the product. Highly recommended for drone controller connections (in my case Mavic Pro to iPad Mini which is so much better and less cumbersome than a straight cable which gets right in the way) but equally for iPhone / iPad gamers who want unhindered access to hold the device normally whilst playing and charging.
Review: Missing Charger -Refund Offered - I have purchased anker 90 degrees charger before and had no problem. However this time round when I opened the package and unsealed the box, the charger was missing. Frustrating UPDATE -Anker kindly contacted me, apologised and offered full refund. I hope they resolved the issue. I appreciate the effort.Thank you again.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good quality but...
*by A***R on 25 May 2021*

This is a well made cable as expected from anker. But, I had not considered that It will not fit if your phone or iPad if it is in a case, you need to remove the phone from the case to use.
