Does anyone know the exact physical dimensions of the USB-C cable that comes with newer iPhones? I'm looking for its total length as well as the approximate width and height of the cable or connectors. Measurements from a caliper would be especially helpful. I've seen guesses that it may be around 0.5 meters or 1 meter long, but I'd like a more reliable measurement.

The cable is included with current iPhone packaging in many cases, but the charging brick is not. Cable length can depend on the exact iPhone package, so checking the model’s box contents or measuring the cable directly is the safest way to confirm it.
The included cable is generally around 1 meter long, although some versions or regions may differ. Newer iPhones typically include a charging cable but not a wall adapter, so the adapter usually has to be purchased separately. The USB-C connector itself follows the standard USB Type-C dimensions, while the cable thickness can vary by model and manufacturer.
USB-C defines the connector dimensions, but it doesn’t require every cable to have the same outer thickness or exact construction. If you need precise width and height measurements, you’d have to measure the specific cable and both connector housings with calipers. The cable supplied with many recent iPhones is commonly about 1 meter long, rather than half a meter.
