I'm looking to purchase 1 or more long lightning cables on Amazon. Either 10ft/3m or 6ft/2m. There's all sorts of options and random "brands", some that are braided, some that say MFI Certified, etc etc.

Can anyone offer any recommendations or things I should definitely look out for or avoid? Thanks.

the amazon ones seem fine. though it may take awhile to tell but so far so good not as flexible as apples though.

They are mifi. I've been using them for years and they work and are cheap.
