These Color-Changing, Heat-Activated Charging Cables Are a Great Apple Alternative
You won’t mix up this MFi-Certified lightning cable with someone else’s.

It's easy to get your iPhone or iPad charger mixed up with someone else's if you use the white one that came with the device (although by the time you're finished with it, odds are it's no longer white). An alternative: the Thermal Color Changing MFi-Certified Lightning Cable, which is on sale today. This charger is an extremely compelling get for a few reasons. First, it's made of vegan leather, and the color of the leather coating changes when it comes in contact with body heat. The cable itself also charges quickly, so you don't have to wait around to juice up. The biggest selling point, though, is the price. Normally $29.99, the Thermal Color Changing MFi-Certified Lightning Cable is on sale right now for $12.99 — that's over 50% off.
