    Hi all
    Looking for the best iPhone UK plug and lighting cable.
    Not really to concerned about the price so long as it charges safely and quickly.
    Thanks in advance.

    Genuine Apple is best, but the slightly cheaper option is amazon basics.

    I wouldn't agree with that.
    Genuine Apple wires fray and break eventually. I am one of the careful ones. I still have my original apple cable from 2 years ago but with kids etc you can see them starting to twist etc

    There's a few braided cables (if that's the correct term) that you can pull, drag, even tow a car with that would be the best option along with the genuine Apple USB plug.

    Genuine Apple plug. And then I use a Belkin cable, thicker and stronger than Apple cables

    No kids here, and my lightning cable beside my bed is I think from my iPad 4 a few years back. No issues with them.

    This is a pack of 2 cables.
    There are options with 1 cable and probably plugs also.
