We just received this from Zebra, and this new cable may be one of the best cable buddies for the new iPad Pro.
Just a little disclosure, we received 2 Zebra cables to feature on our website – one for our feature content and another one for our giveaway to one of our followers. As usual, we have the editorial freedom to give our opinion about this product as objective as possible.
The cable is made of durable nylon with TPE rubber sleeve. As fancy as it may sound, the cable is also made with Dupont Kevlar fiber. The latter makes it safe and cut resistant. It’s lightweight, durable and extraordinarily strong as well. In fact, as Zebra claims it, it is 6x stronger than standard Lightning cables, and has over 10,000 bend lifespan. The braided cable stretches for 2 meters, and may be bundled with the leather wrapper.
As a 2-in-1 cable, it proved itself very handy if you own two devices, which use Lightning and MicroUSB- definitely a must have for dual device owners.
The length of the cable even jacked up its reliability in cases when the outlet is too far from you; but might be an overkill if you’re just going to pair it up with your powerbank.
Price is another good factor of the Zebra 2M. It currently sells for PhP800.00, a tad cheaper than Native Union Belt Cable XL, which sells for more than PhP1,700.
