Today I got my hands on an O.MG cable. It is extremely well manufactured and to most it will be extremely stealthy.
I thought it would be fun and educational to do a side by side comparison to create a reference for some minor visual differences to be able to detect one in the field. This comparison was done with what I believe to be official Apple cables.
-
Apple cables have more of a matte finish on the usb connector than the O.MG.
-
The connector pins on the apple connector appear to be thinner (showing more background color) than the O.MG cable.
-
O.MG cable looks like it has a little robot face.
- On the back side the Apple connector has a vertical seam where as the O.MG cable has no seam on the back.
- The O.MG cable has a vertical seam where as the Apple cable does not.
- The Apple cable is about 1 inch in length longer than the O.MG
