iPhone/iPad MFI-Certified Lightning Cables (4-Pack)

I bought half black and half white. https://massdrop-s3.imgix.net/img_comment/3U03CqAaRMClYQvKTUIg_IMG9023.jpeg black cables were same as shown on the picture, however, white color cables are different. White color cable heads are matted and more thicker(larger) than the black colors..even cable lengths are different between these two colors. Am I the only one to received the cables like this???

The cables were 33.5” instead of 3.5’ (which should be 42”). Anyone else have a similar experience?

Beware of those Amazon basics USB-lighting... Plugs are crappily connected to the cable.
