£17.63 inc. VAT
AI-generated summary
For £14.70 ex-VAT, this is a pretty sensible “just works” cable from StarTech, and that’s the whole point. If you’ve got staff with iPhones/iPads on desks or in meeting rooms, a 2m MFi-certified Lightning-to-USB cable is a pragmatic way to stop the usual chaos of short/cheap leads that fray or fail right when you’re halfway through a call. The 2m length is genuinely useful in offices and warehouses—long enough to reach power without running a cable like it’s a tripwire.
Who should buy: anyone reselling/rolling out basic charging accessories for SMB teams, reception/iPad check-in setups, or environments where you want reliability over novelty. Why not: if you’re buying for heavy-duty use (constant plugging/unplugging, lots of cable movement, or you want higher-end durability), this isn’t a rugged cable—so you may want to budget for something more heavy-duty or keep spares. Also, if your fleet is shifting to USB-C devices, the value is only “temporary,” because you’re essentially locking yourself into Lightning for now.
