@Shenoy I have also always received confirmation for the shipping. Between winning contests and testing events, I believe I have received 4 items from Anker so far. I got the confirmation for the PowerLine III cable on Tuesday (9/17/19) and per tracking, I should received it on Saturday (9/21/19). Oh, and congrats on your selection. I’m really looking forward receiving mine.
BTW, I have a whole bunch of PowerLine cables but no PowerLine II cables. I actually bought a PowerLine II cable last year, but it got “stolen” by a friend who liked it so much (this happens a lot). Anyway, I guess I’ll be comparing the PowerLine III with the original PowerLine. Also against the original Anker lightning cable (I have one from June 2014 that still works great) as well as the OEM cable.
