"The Paracable Paraflex Lightning cable, which starts at $22, is one of the best Lightning cables I've ever used. It's durable, colorful, and features the thickest connector reinforcements I've seen. Ultimately, what sets this cable apart from the Anker PowerLine II, our previous top pick, is its strength, thin design, reasonable price, and variety of color and length options.
This cable easily fits through my case easily and creates a secure connection with my phone. I can even hold my phone upside down and shake the cable without it falling out, though I don't recommend trying this over a hard surface. It's also light, portable, and comes with a Velcro strap for easy storage.
Paracable uses a patented 32-bit paracord fabric to cover its lineup of cables. The fabric comes in four different color patterns and feels similar to other nylon-covered power cords. It's soft, smooth, and easily bendable – though it does a better job of keeping its bent shape toward the end of the connectors than it does in the middle of the cable. It also charges quickly, with the ability to transport up to two amps of power to your device.
What's particularly interesting about this cable is that the company claims it can withstand up to 35,000 bends. That's almost three times as many bends as Anker claims the PowerLine II can endure. Although I haven't tried bending the Paracable 35,000 times, I've been using it for months and haven't encountered any issues. The company backs up its product with a two-year warranty, along with a 30-day, money-back guarantee.
The Paracable Paraflex Lightning cable isn't the cheapest charging cord on this list, but offers a great combination of style, size, and durability – making it the best choice for most people."
