Choosing the right charging cable depends on your device and charger type. Here’s a quick guide to help you decide:

1. For iPhone 14 and Earlier (Lightning Port):

Type C to Lightning: Ideal if you’re using a USB-C charger (e.g., Apple’s 20W charger).

USB to Lightning: Best for older USB-A chargers (common in older power bricks and some portable chargers).

2. For iPhone 15/16 (USB-C Port) & Android Devices (Samsung, Huawei, Xiaomi, etc.):

Type C to Type C: The modern choice for fast charging and data transfer. Works with most new devices, including iPhone 15/16 and Android phones.

USB to Type C: Ideal for users with older USB chargers or those looking to charge devices with a Type C input.

In summary:

If you’re using an older USB-A charger, choose USB to Lightning (for iPhones) or USB to Type C (for Android or iPhone 15/16).

If you have a newer USB-C charger, opt for Type C to Lightning (for iPhones) or Type C to Type C (for iPhones 15/16 and Android devices).

Pick the cable that suits your device and charger for optimal performance!
