Anker rolls out new 4-inch Powerline reinforced MFi Lightning and microUSB cables, 2-packs from $5 Prime shipped

Anker is responsible for some of our favorite iPhone and Android accessories. We’re particularly partial to its Powerline Lightning and microUSB cables, which are made from reinforced fiber that is designed to resist damage and fraying. Amazon customers love them too, with thousands of reviewers leaving a 4.5+/5 star rating in most instances.

While Anker has largely focused on longer cables, they are now rolling out smaller versions that are perfect for toss in your backpack. The new four-inch cables come in two-packs, and today Anker is discounting both its Lightning and microUSB varieties. Free shipping is available for Prime members or in orders of $49+.

Here are your choices:

• 2-pack 4-in. MFi Powerline Lightning Cables: $10 (Reg. $16)
  • w/ code ANKSB222
• 2-pack 4-in. Powerline microUSB cables: $5 (Reg. $7)
  • w/ code ANKSB111

Strengthened Construction
A first for USB charging cables, the Anker PowerLine is reinforced with bulletproof aramid fiber. That makes it much stronger than conventional cables.

5X More Durable
We bent this cable over 5000 times and saw no damage or change in performance. PowerLine Lightning is the toughest cable you’ve ever seen.

Faster Charging
Thanks to wide diameter wires and reduced cord resistance, PowerLine enables the fastest possible charge speed via any USB charger.

Apple MFi Certified
Each cable contains a unique authorization chip issued by Apple to ensure 100% sync & charge compatibility with any Lightning device.
