I received I was compared to 3 cables and cable my original iPhone 4. Any method other than between my genuine Apple iphone 4 and 3 cable has a slightly along the different cable lengths of rubber / plastic material can not tell the difference between the different feel. Cable connector on the other reviewers ' problems a little wider or larger, appearance is the same as the appearance and size of the mine photograph was published in the Amazon.

And pleased with this purchase and then buy some more.

I didn't realize ordered ( ordered a great initial experience 5-star cell phone from an Amazon merchant ) and after 3 or more cables and had changed to "default" merchant Importer520. Just these fast and received 3 cable genuine Apple cables they all had surface stains and slight irregularities in the workup is similar to catch a glimpse. Also, they are suspicious and looking for "by Apple California Assembly stamp design length in China" had.

From mobile phone 5 stars very good quality I can differentiate from real Apple cable cable was from Importer520 it is inferior. Supple texture of the length of the cable, is however, good. It and the coiled, as well as maintaining a bent-shaped straight stretches.

But you can get a refund of policy specified in the State will not refund shipping costs please refer to return contact Importer520 and ordered me when it was almost all of the purchase price.

Buy another "OEM" cable, is the worst cable bundles and Item44Less from this time. Than the length of the cable and flexible rubber-like material real Apple cable or mobile phone 5 stars and Importer520 like are made from hard plastic does not bend.

==========================
So a through C and J accessories Amazon order fulfillment, actually purchased this time for another "OEM" cable from Amazon Prime eligibility. This cable is obviously real 0.5 mm edge width and length greater than about the iPhone have been not connected. Other Amazon merchant cable design was identical, but differed in quality. This cable is different in its design and its wide and thick in fact connector end. Also the length of the cable is more than an authentic Apple cables, flexible rubber, plastics. This is almost the same as the Item44Less is bad and I think.

===========================
Buy the cable from the Niceeshop and looks real supple except not as a real Apple cable, cable length material. Cable length materials as strong as Item44Less cable Importer520 cable than over fixed (hold bend).

Overview of ( ranked in order of similarity to real Apple cable )
================================================================
1. Star cable is best and five mobile me indistinguishable from genuine Apple iPhone cable.
2. Importer520 is acceptable, but less stars in five cells and some cosmetic blemishes is. Length of the cable is made of high quality material.
3. Niceeshop is acceptable, but cable length is flexible as stars or Importer520 5 cell phone isn't.
4. Eligible for Amazon Prime C and J accessories that as real one has a cheap cable length materials and larger iPhone connector end.
5. Item44Less I do not bend while transporting the formation just around the corner from the position of the coil rigid plastic cable material that I would avoid. Cable length materials is low quality (plastic like above four competitors than most).

I compared the cable I received with my original iPhone 4 and 3 cables. I cannot tell any differences other than a slightly different feel of the rubber/plastic material along the cable length, which by the way also differs between my genuine Apple iphone 4 and 3 cables. Another reviewer posted pictures on Amazon in which the cable in question appeared to have a slightly wider or larger connectors, but mine are identical in size, and appearance.

I am very happy with this purchase and will purchase several more.

=======================
After my initial great experience with the cable (that I ordered from Amazon's merchant Cellular 5 Star), I ordered 3 more cables, and did not realize that the "default" merchant had changed to Importer520. I just received these 3 cables and they look similar to genuine Apple cables at quick glance, but on closer inspection, they all had surface blemishes and slight irregularities. They also had a suspicious looking "Designed by Apple in California Assembled in China" stamped on the cable length.

The cable from Cellular 5 Star was of very good quality that I could NOT distinguish from genuine Apple cables, but the ones from Importer520 are slightly inferior. The feel of the cable length material is good though, in that it is supple. It will coil and uncoil without keeping the bent shape.

I have contacted Importer520 to see if I can get a refund, but their stated return policy states that they will not refund shipping costs, which when I ordered was almost all the purchase price.

======================
I purchased another "OEM" cable, this time from Item44Less and this cable is the worst of the bunch. The length of the cable is made out of a rigid plastic that does not bend like the more supple rubber-like material of the genuine Apple cables or even from Cellular 5 Star or Importer520.

ADDENDUM September 2, 2011
==========================
I purchased another "OEM" cable, this time from C and J Accessories, which actually qualifies for Amazon Prime since their order fulfillment is through Amazon. This cable is clearly not authentic with the end that connects to the iPhone being larger by about 0.5 mm width and length. The other Amazon merchants cables were identical to design, but differed in quality. This cable actually differs in its design with its wider and thicker connector end. The length of the cable is also more plastic than a flexible rubber, compared to authentic Apple cables. I would say this is almost as bad as Item44Less.

ADDENDUM September 19, 2011
===========================
I purchased a cable from Niceeshop and it looks genuine except that the cable length material is not as supple as the genuine Apple cables. The cable length material is not as rigid as the Item44Less cable, but more inflexible (retaining bends) than the Importer520 cables.

SUMMARY (Ranked in order of similarity to an authentic Apple cable)
================================================================
1. Cellular 5 Star cables are the best and indistinguishable from my genuine Apple iPhone cables.
2. Importer520 is acceptable, but slightly inferior to Cellular 5 Star with some cosmetic blemishes. The cable length is made out of a high quality material.
3. Niceeshop is acceptable, but the cable length is not as supple as the Cellular 5 Star or Importer520.
4. C and J Accessories, although it qualifies for Amazon Prime, has its iPhone connector end as larger than the authentic one with a cheaper cable length material.
5. I would avoid Item44Less because of the rigid plastic cable material that does not bend and keeps the angular bent formation from its coiled position during shipping. The cable length material is the lowest quality (i.e. most plastic like) compared to the above four competitors.
