Default MFI certified usb to usb c cable

I am looking for one on the Apple website but it seems they don't have one for sale. I am looking one specificly MFI certified for iphones.

I would like to take advantage of the Apple carplay.

Anyone with experience or suggestions would be appreciated.

I went for this.

It’s USB-IF certified and Amazon Basics is a trusted provider. I couldn’t find any MFI usb c to a cables and I don’t like adapters. This one also is 3.1 gen 2 and works fine as both a charger and 10 gbs file transfer. 30 day return policy too!

Since Apple sells Belkin products, I decided to go with this.

Good choice, I must have missed that one. Does it have Gen 2 USB 3?

Are you talking about USB 3.0?

Usually when USB A is involved, the max you are going to get is USB 2.0.

I've always just used anker cables. They've been cheap, reliable, and durable and I just recently ordered this one for my RX.

No, USB-A supports USB 3.0 and your cable supports it too (see screenshot). I was asking if you knew it supported gen2 USB 3.0. It doesn’t say so it probably doesn’t.
