Charging and connection cables are a bland, everyday necessity. They are just there. Nothing spectacular. At least that has been my thought process about cables. However, a new Kickstarter Campaign offers what looks to be the best iPhone/iPad cable out there. The Quickdraw Cable has done the impossible and improved the charging cable.
There are countless 3rd party charging cables on the market, with the great majority of them being pretty low quality. Last years’ outbreak of fires caused by 3rd party iPhone chargers, is a testament to the poor quality that dominates the 3rd party charger market. The low quality of the 3rd party iPhone/iPad charger market is what prompted the creation of the Quickdraw cable:
here are thousands of charging cables on the market for the iPhone and iPad but many of them are Apple knockoffs that are poor quality, uncertified and stop working after Apple release an iOS software update.
We wanted to produce an amazing looking high quality cable with added functional features that was so well made that we could offer a lifetime guarantee. We also wanted to be able to offer all of this but still at a great price. 1
The Quickdraw has some impressive specs:
- Crafted from silver anodised aluminium
- Woven cable for strength and to reduce tangling
- Built in magnetic cable tidy
- Finished with laser etched mirror graphics
- Compatible with all Lightning equipped 8 pin iPhones, iPads and iPods
- Apple MFI Certified
- 1 metre / 3 feet long
- Lifetime guarantee2
Perhaps the most impressive of these features is the magnetic cable tidy:
Just stick the tiny (15mm) self adhesive disk to any surface where you want your Quickdraw cable to stay put. Then when your Quickdraw cable is not being used just drop it on to the steel disk and it will be held in place with the power of a simple magnet.3
The cable is currently a reward for a pledge of £15 or more – $25 USD – on the Quickdraw Cable Kickstarter Campaign.
