Regardless of either, they both have the same fault. The connector between the phone and the adapter is poor. It could just be a fault with my phone but I have no way of proving this.

Third party ones are almost certainly not as good as the actual Apple ones. The Apple one has remarkably good quality for its price.

I suspect this sounds like a problem with your specific phone. Never had a problem with any lightning accessories myself.
