These have the new USB-C cords... which are fine, except you can’t plug them in to any regular USB charging blocks, let alone the charger hub that goes in the cigarette lighter of your car.\n\nThese adapters fixed my life! Now I can plug my iPad into USB outlets... so I can charge the iPad in the car or off my computer. As seen in the picture, I can also plug into the wall with my old charger block.\n\nThank you for the great product!'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on August 31, 2018', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'Whatever consortium of great thinkers created the USB-C standard should all be banned from official engineering roles. Luckily, these adapters can be added to normal usb ports to provide the mystical backwards compatibility that USB interfaces usually have. Now if we can only get a USB-C hub!\n\nI use this because I have a USB-C Yubikey, which works perfectly on PC and MAC. I also used it to connect my Google Pixel, and it works. Data, charge rates are slowed down to USB 2.0 standards because this adapter only has a 4-pin USB-A interface. But I can handle that slowdown thanks to the opportunity of not having to buy another Yubikey.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on August 15, 2020', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'My sole purpose of purchasing this was to cut the cord on the Arctis One Usb-C transmitter and I have a winner! The pic is showing how it works and looks on the front of a Meshify C. I am using this adapter right now while listening to music wirelessly and it is perfect, no hissing, white noise, or cut-outs/ drops. It has other uses, but this is my primary use, so this can be used to simplify USB-C male to this female adapter that plugs into standard USB A. If this helps someone make a similar decision, smash that thumbs up! Have a great audio day guys!'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on October 3, 2018', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': "For some reason, no one makes a USB C Hub.\nGo ahead, search. I'll wait.\nSO you can easily make your own using this item and the AmazonBasics USB 3.1 Type-C to 4-Port Aluminum Hub, Black (or something with a few more slots (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B074ZV2DSW/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o07_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1)\n\nBang - a 4 port USB C hub for under $30.\n\nYou're welcome."}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on July 31, 2020', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-1 review-rating', 'review_body': "Don't buy this. Build quality is excellent but the internals are far inferior.\n\nTesting using an USB 3.1 Gen2 External SSD drive with both USB-A and USB-C cables. Without the adapter, Direct connecting the SSD to my Macbook Pro and using BlackMagicDesign Disk Speed Test, I get 750MB/s write speeds. This is the baseline.\n\nI connected my Nonda USB-A to USB-C adapter alone with the USB-A cable on the SSD and I get 750MB/s. I configure the Nonda adapter with this adapter to directly connect to my Macbook Pro and I get 30MB/s (not a typo).\n\nWith my USB-A cable on SSD and plug it into a USB 3.1 Gen1 hub and I get around 400MB/s. I put back the USB-C cable and add this adapter, boom 30MB/s.\n\nIts far too slow. A clear don't buy."}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on February 9, 2019', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': "After a disappointing purchase from another vendor (description was same but actual product was wrong), I had low expectations when I put in my order for this Basesailor USB C Female to USB Male Adapter. The description and picture looked right and the price was good (2 per pack) so even if it didn't quite work for what I had in mind, I would still be okay if the item worked overall.\n\nThankfully, the adapter were exactly what I needed. An adapter for a USB-C adapter so I could use the USB-C adapter with a USB port. Such a small item, but quite an impact. Suddenly, I could use the USB-C adapter with my laptop via a standard USB port. That expanded how I could use my laptop and also the USB-C adapter. It isn't limited to just one or two devices in the household but any device that has a standard USB port. So I'm quite pleased with this product.\n\nAlso bonus points on how quickly it came in. There has been delays on other items (not judging the USPS or Amazon as it has been a tough season), but this was received in good time and that was a nice surprise."}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on November 26, 2020', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': "We got an Oculus Quest 2 headset and bought the Oculus Link cable to connect it to your PC. Somehow we missed that the link comes with USB-C connections, which are those small round connectors you see on most mobile phones of the last couple of years where it doesn't matter if you plug it in upside down because really there is no up and down for the connector. The problem of course was that our desktop computer only had USB-A connectors (the original big rectangle type)\n\nSo we ordered this product from Amazon, selected one-day shipping because we couldn't wait and eagerly awaited the delivery. After delivery we found that the product ordered actually consisted of two adapters, which wasn't really necessary as the usb-c connector of the Link connects to the usb-c receptor of the headset but I guess a spare adapter will probably come in handy somewhere in the future.\n\nSo we used one of the two adapters to connect the Link cable to the PC and have had zero issues with it. Ease of use is great of course as you just plug it in (with the right side up for the USB-A receptor on the PC) and you're good to go."}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on March 14, 2019', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-1 review-rating', 'review_body': 'This adapter looks nice and matched the space-grey color from Apple - however, it slows down your USB connection. On a connected 1 Gbps Ethernet interface, my throughput with this adapter is 40 Mbps. With another adapter I measure 160 Mbps, and with the same Ethernet USB-C adapter on an iPad Pro, it measured full bandwidth. It seams to be a general problem that these USB-C to USB-A adapter slow things down. I mainly use it for serial cables and no issue there.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on October 14, 2019', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': "Tiny connector that does as described. Using this for the new iphone 11. You'll need this adapter if you plan on using the new iPhone sync cable included in iPhone 11. Apple changed the new sync cable's USB end (usually a regular USB) to USB C. Small and compact, I store it in the included zip pouch to I don't lose it.

What\'s the difference? A new type of connector of course! My "old vehicle" which was high tech in its day, has a USB port. This little port allows me to play music stored on my phone during the daily race (to get to work).\n\nLo and behold a new phone charges with the USB port but does not play music. UGH! The USB-C creates a whole new market for adapters, more cables, and whatnot. Along comes this sweet little USB C Female to USB Male Adapter. You get not 1 but 2 of these in a package.\n\nI simply plugged the adapter into the vehicles USB port, the funky lightning to USB-C cable into the adapter and the other end into my phone. Suddenly, I am immersed in the music that I cherish. Now this little USB C Female to USB Male Adapter appears to be well made and packaged very nicely. There is a note included in case you have any issues.\n\nI am pretty happy with the SB C Female to USB Male Adapter. Great deal and very useful!!'}]
