Just bought a new 30 watt GaN Ii charger, and need matching MFI cords for an IPhone 13 Pro. These were on one day sale @ Amazon, but they are not up to snuff.
PROS: the price seemed good, the customer ratings were high.
-Length and cord is good,
CONS: but the plugs are not. The plastic plugs seem to get warm. [In electronics heat is always the enemy]. -Then I realized that the plugs did not have the Aluminum Alloy cuff (shell) that my other plugs have to dissipate heat.
-I also noticed that that these plugs don’t seem to charge as quickly as my older ones -Even with my non GaN fast charger.
Maybe it’s the powerful charger. [but don’t think so]. These cords might not be the best for fast charging.
[Beyond 5 Watts]. Either way they do not work to my expectations. For the sake of the life of my iPhone battery, I will experiment a bit more.
While the built might be good for the typical user, they don’t seem to meet my standards for efficient equipment. It pays to buy better quality. These will probably go back.
