The Apple USB-C to Lightning Charge and Sync Cable (1m) bridges Lightning iPhones to the USB-C world. If you use a MacBook, a USB-C wall charger or a USB-C hub as your charging source, this is the cable that connects your Lightning iPhone to them. With an 18W or 20W USB-C adapter, it enables fast charging on iPhone 8 through iPhone 14 — taking the battery from flat to 50% in around 30 minutes. USB 2.0 data transfer enables wired sync between iPhone and Mac via Finder. This is the official Apple cable for that connection — genuine Lightning authentication, Apple’s power delivery specification, 1 metre, in white. If you own an iPhone 15, 16 or 17, those models use USB-C and require a USB-C to USB-C cable instead.
Fast Charge
18W — 50% in ~30 Minutes
Apple’s USB-C to Lightning cable supports fast charging on iPhone 8 and all later Lightning iPhones — up to iPhone 14 Pro Max. Fast charging requires an 18W or higher USB-C Power Adapter (not included). With an 18W or 20W adapter, it charges a compatible iPhone from 0% to around 50% in approximately 30 minutes, compared to over 3 hours with a standard 5W USB-A charger. The iPhone’s charge circuitry manages the charge rate — the cable and adapter establish the maximum available power, the phone draws what it needs.
Connectivity
Lightning to USB-C — Mac, Hub, Charger
All modern MacBooks use USB-C ports exclusively. Without a USB-C to Lightning cable, connecting a Lightning iPhone to a MacBook requires an adapter — this cable eliminates that entirely. Connect Lightning iPhone directly to MacBook for wired sync in Finder, for charging from the MacBook’s USB-C port, or for CarPlay in vehicles with USB-C. Works with any USB-C charger, hub or power bank with USB-C output. Also connects Lightning iPads and AirPods charging cases to USB-C sources.
Genuine Apple
MFi Certified — No Warnings
Apple’s Lightning connector includes an authentication chip that verifies the cable’s legitimacy. Non-certified cables trigger an “Accessory Not Supported” warning on iPhone and may be blocked from charging or syncing entirely. As an official Apple cable, the USB-C to Lightning Cable is fully MFi certified and passes Lightning authentication on every device without warnings or reduced functionality. It is built to Apple’s specification for the Lightning connector — the same cable bundled with iPhones before the USB-C transition.
Great choice if you…
✔ Own an iPhone 14 or earlier with Lightning connector
✔ Want to fast charge your Lightning iPhone from a USB-C adapter
✔ Connect your iPhone directly to a MacBook for sync
✔ Have a Lightning iPad, iPod or AirPods charging case
✔ Need a genuine Apple cable to avoid “Accessory Not Supported” warnings
Consider something else if…
✖ You own iPhone 15 or later — those use USB-C, see Apple USB-C Cable 1m
✖ You need 2m length — see the USB-C to Lightning Cable 2m
✖ Your charger is USB-A — you need a USB-A to Lightning cable instead
Important: This cable has Lightning on one end and USB-C on the other. It is for iPhone 14, iPhone 13, iPhone 12, iPhone 11, iPhone X/XS/XR/8 and Lightning iPads. iPhone 15, iPhone 16 and iPhone 17 use USB-C on the phone end — those models require a USB-C to USB-C cable, not this one.
