In this way the Belkin accessory manufacturer becomes the first in a long list that will be sure to add their Apple-certified USB-C to Lightning cable. In this case, the cable will help us avoid having to go through Apple if we don't want to, but we already anticipate that the price difference with the original from the Cupertino guys is not too much.
In this case, the best of all is that we already announced that in 2019 third-party companies could start marketing this coveted cable in a fully certified way for users who have an iPhone and a Mac, so the first one is this one from Belkin.
The prices at the moment are not too different
In this first Belkin model we realize that the prices of the different models that will begin to market soon (they have been presented at CES in Las Vegas) have a price of $ 24,99 to $ 34,99, So compared to the 25 euros that the one-meter cable costs in Apple or the 39 of the two-meter cable, the difference in price will not be so much.
On the other hand, it is also important to clarify that Belkin is one of the companies that in terms of prices are not the most profitable, but also the quality of their products are very high. In this case, the model that they are going to market is compatible with the Lightning and its corresponding Apple's MFi certificate have a measurement of 120, 180 and 300 centimeters respectively, so it is somewhat longer than the original Apple model and the materials used are somewhat better than Apple's own. I say this because I have a Lightning to USB A cable from this brand and it is much stronger than those that come with Apple products, so this model will surely be the same or more resistant.
