Can the three connectors be used simultaneously?
Timothy K
on Jan 20, 2017
BEST ANSWER: The Lightning and USB-C connectors are just adapters that fit on the end of the micro-USB cable. They're attached by a bit of rubbery-ish cord. So no, they cannot be used at the same time.

Doesn't look like it, and unlikely at this price. The back of the apple connector is a micro USB female, so you likely plug the lightning or USB-C adapters into the micro USB active end when you need them. The "wires" connected to the cable end are just tethers for the micro USB to Lightning and micro USB to USB-C adapters.

No, one at a time so buy 2 or 3 but replace your multiple cords with this one so you can charge any device at any station you have set-up.

NO it cannot. The center one carries the power so if you need either of the "y" side fittings, you must attach it to that center part.

Very versatile cable. It charges my most used devices. And as usual with Monoprice items, it works well and I am confident that it will last. I'm going to buy several more.

They work great. One upgrade could be to make the lightning head fit tighter on the micro usb end so that it doesn’t come out as easy. Other then that the cables are sturdy, work great for all my devices and charge fast.

Best charging cable
I own multiple of these.
Everyone loves taking my charger because this works with any device!
People often ask where I got this too.
Best cable. Only bad thing is the cable length, though, having a USB or electric power extension is not a bad thing to have in your toolkit. If a 6 ft version was released, I would purchase it.

Pass on this one
The adapters don't stay in place and tend to pop off, so if you plan on charging an iPhone or USB C you may run into problems. Exactly what I bought this for, charging on older Galaxy S7, newer S9 and an iPhone.

Does exactly what I needed it to.
It does exactly what I needed it to. When my wife drives my car and wants to plug in her iPhone for Car play she no longer leaves her lighting cable plugged in. She was leaving me searching for my USB-C cable next time I'd get in my car and want to connect Android Auto. And my kid can't play with and lose the adapters.

Ok, but questionable design choice IMO
In my opinion, I would have preferred the USB-C, or even the lightning end, to be on the cable itself. The most likely to fail connect, mini USB, will get the most wear and tear. No issues so far with it, but time will tell.
