  • MFi certification prevents pop-up warnings during charging
  • 29 W Power Delivery charges iPhone 14 to 60 % in 29 minutes
  • C94 Lightning connector delivers 2.5× speed over USB-A cables
  • Nylon braid with transparent shell resists daily wear

What this cable is for

This SMUGDESK pack contains two USB C to Lightning cables, each 3.3ft long, finished in black with a nylon braided jacket and transparent shell. They are MFi certified with an authorised chip so they charge and sync iPhone models from the 8 Plus through the 14 Pro family and AirPods Pro without triggering compatibility warnings.

Thermals noise and power

The cables support Power Delivery fast charging up to 29W, letting an iPhone 14 reach 60% in roughly 29 minutes when paired with a compatible 18W, 20W, 29W, 61W or 87W USB-C power adapter. Data transfers run at 480Mbps. No active cooling or fan noise is involved because the product is a passive cable assembly.

The deciding spec

The connector uses Apple's newer C94 Lightning design with gold coloured pins rather than the older C48 silver pins, which the supplier states delivers charging 2.5× faster than a standard USB A to Lightning cable. Buyers who need a USB A connector or a longer length will need a different product.

Questions about this item

How do I install the USB-C to Lightning cable and what step do people often miss?

Plug the USB-C end into a Power Delivery charger such as an 18W, 20W, 29W, 61W or 87W adapter, then connect the Lightning end to the iPhone. The step many miss is using a PD-rated charger; a standard USB-A port will not deliver the 29W fast-charge speed.

What maintenance or replacement will the braided cable need over time?

The nylon braid resists fraying, but inspect the C94 Lightning connector pins for lint or oxidation every few months. If the gold-plated pins discolour or the cable no longer negotiates 480 Mbps data transfer, replace the cable to keep charging at full 29W speed.

What limit appears first during sustained fast-charging sessions?

The cable is rated for 29W Power Delivery. When charging an iPhone 14 from 0 to 60 percent in 29 minutes, the connector temperature rise becomes the limiting factor before the 480 Mbps data line or the braided jacket shows any stress.
