Ipad Mini 1 Lightning Cable

I had an older 5th gen iPad mini that used the older 1st gen lightning-based Apple Pencil. The battery in my pencil finally died, so I needed a new one. It was a bit confusing as to whether this pencil was the correct replacement, since it mentions USB-C, rather than lightning, but I can confirm that this is indeed the 1st gen lightning-based pencil, that just happens to have a lightning to USB-C adapter mentioned in the product title.

Just plugged it into the lightning connector of my iPad, with an HDMI cable it connected instantly to a projector. Seemed a bit pricey but Apple connectivity, quality, and guaranteed compatibility is worth it. A great travel accessory for connecting to hotel TVs.

I wanted the kids to be able to watch YouTube videos on a TV, this adapter made it happen. It was easy to connect my iPad to the television. Just insert the lightning plug into the iPad (or iPhone), connect to the TV via an HDMI cable and connect a lightning charging cable to the adapter and watch. Whatever is on the iPad shows up on the TV. The kids use the iPad as a controller and both can watch full size videos.

I have owned every generation of iPad and have become a big fan of the Minis - great for travel, great for reading at night, and large enough screens to view photos, movies, etc. However, they never had the processing power and graphics capability of the larger models - until now. The new Mini Gen 6 has it all - great screen (now with very small bezel for greater viewing area) and now real horsepower. The first indication of that was doing updates to apps. Normally, the last Mini would take quite some time to process updates once downloaded. This new Mini blazes through updates much faster. Finally a Mini that sacrifices very little in comparison to the larger iPads. The swipe-only operation takes a little getting used to, but poses no disadvantages I can see so far. Just bear in mind this iPad (and all the other newer ones) requires a USB C charging cable (included). If you, like me, have tons of the old Lightning cables, they won't work. Additionally, many non-Apple USB C cables will not support charging, so be aware. Play it safe and use an Apple cable (comes with the cable and charger of course). As a side note, I have the new Apple folio case for this generation and it's pretty darn cool too. Great product, great B&H service!

I am shooting video with my iPad mini and putting the Rode VideoMic Pro out ahead of the iPad on a boom stand to increase the sound quality. This extension cable does the trick. I was concerned about picking up lots of line noise but so far that hasn't been the case. It's working out really well. I also had to buy the Rode SC4 3.5 TRS to TRRS adaptor to connect the extension cable to the iPad. You won't be able to go directly into your ios device with this cable alone.

Works with my iPad mini gen 6, with an amazon USB A to C adapter. Comes with a nice cable with a choke in it, bet one must use that one. Not hi-fi but no distortion. for travel, I'll take it!

Fits the ipad mini 5 with cover great and a nice pocket for the charger and cable (any other small items). No complaints.

I kept having the basic cable for my iPad mini bulging and breaking through so wires were visible at lightening end. Apple suggested I try this cord and I am amazed at the durability! I highly recommend to those of us who are a little hard on our cords!

I use this to connect my iPad Pro to my Mac Mini, using the iPad as a drawing tool. It works perfectly. The cable is not stiff.

This is a great product. Works seamlessly with the iPad and B&H got it to me with lightning speed!
