Many of us see accessories like chargers and cables cheaply, and write on them that they are Apple-certified and original, but are they really original? How to easily identify the original and non-original product?
Apple always recommends its customers to use original accessories and these products are approved by them MFi certification From Apple. So what is this accreditation?
Many people may think that the word MFi is an acronym for the phrase "Made for iPhone", but the truth is otherwise. In 2005, Apple announced a certification called MFi, and the letter i at the time symbolized the iPod. This dependence concerns any connections to the device, whether connected to it from the charging port, "the old iPhone cable at the time," or the audio port. Over the years, MFi certification has evolved to include gaming devices and other products. And Apple actually started not to develop from the materials of its accessories and we started to see MFi cables that are more powerful than the original Apple cable and a lot of different original accessories.
In order for any company to get MFi accreditation, it corresponds to Apple, and after multiple stages, Apple approves the company, but this does not mean that it can produce directly, but that before submitting any product, it must send the production plan, design and even packaging to Apple, and then Apple approves the product to issue an order to manufacture and among these The standards use a specific MFi chip and standards for the internal cable that carries current and data. But Apple does not require the shape of the cable, its length, or the quality of the external materials, that is, it can produce a 10 cm or 300 cm cable. The company is free. So, as we mentioned, we saw the highest cables stronger than the original because it was made internally by Apple standards and externally with stronger materials than used in Apple, such as Kevlar, for example in cables.
MFi products from Apple are characterized by being affordable. Of course, they are more expensive than the unknown cables that are widespread in the market, but at the same time they are usually cheaper than the original (Apple receives a fee for the MFi products sold). So many Asian factories offer production of unknown cables and write that they are certified by Apple.

Do you have a locked device?
Is the otterbox cable Apple certified? And also ugreen charger certified or not?
The original product remains original
It seems to be a nice addition to iPhone Islam tools, instead of just storing it in your favorites
Ok
Not all MFI certified products are good
I've been using Griffin for 5 years now and it's still working great quality
I think Griffin is among the Apple certified companies
Yes, they are certified, but there are other products that are certified and their quality is poor, especially the materials made from them. I have tried more than one product from the AliExpress website
Sorry about the error display, and it cannot be changed. The iPhone developers are kindly requested to solve this problem
I expected that you would tell me the practical way in order to know whether this product is original first, and not just the presence of the company’s name on the product, so the company’s name may be printed based on a non-original product.
What I use other than Anker cables - very very excellent
Advice for every user of a smart device, whether iPhone or junk Android
Do not purchase any product that is not original
The battery with IC charging will deteriorate with time, sometimes within days
Products like Ravpower
And deny
But
