Customers are saying

Customers highly value the Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) to Thunderbolt 2 Adapter's compatibility with Apple monitors and its ability to connect older Thunderbolt 2 devices to newer Macs. They also appreciate its ease of use and reliable data transfer capabilities, noting its seamless performance. However, some customers find the adapter's price to be a significant drawback. The size of the adapter is also a point of contention for a few users.

    Excellent dongle, allows me to use a 27-inch Apple Studio Display on my newer 2017 MacbookPro with Thunderbolt 3 ports. Doesn't charge through the connector, but all other functionality is retained (3x USB-A, Ethernet, SCSI connector). Works like it did on my previous MacBook Pro (except charge).

    Great product. Does what it’s meant to do. Love Best Buy. Would always rather purchase from Best Buy then from Amazon. With Best Buy I know I’m getting a real product and not a counterfeit.

    Works like a champ! it's always that 1 thing you need to make it connect better, a dongle that is small in size and huge in cost! Way to go Apple!

    Every time I get a new computer, there is always a peripheral I need to connect to it but the type of connections/ports have changed! LOL! This adapter serves its purpose. It is good quality. Pricey, but well-made. At least with Apple, I know what I am getting as opposed to some lesser known or off-brands.

    These adapters fit well. Not too tight but, a good fit. I've 4 ports on my laptop. Newer items are equipped with the new type of connectors. By having this I have extended the life of many of my older accessories. APPLE stuff is always quality.

    An Apple Dongle Worth the Hassle

    A "must-have" for anyone with Thunderbolt 2 peripherals, Mac or PC. Yes, it is a hassle having to buy another $50 dongle for my computers; however, this one is worth it as it keeps my mission critical Thunderbolt 2 devices relevant in a Thunderbolt 3 world. They 'just work'.

    Apple has done it again! Made it impossible and expensive to connect live recording equipment to their new computers. I had to spend $100.00 on 2 adapters to get my Mackie Onyx 1640i to connect with my computer so that I could record a live event. The mixer uses a firewire. The adapter is a little bulky for me but it works perfectly.

    Apple seems to be the only source for this adapter. No less expensive alternatives out there yet. I needed it for my 2019 MacBook Pro, which only has USB-C (Thunderbolt 3) ports. It works perfectly to connect my Thunderbolt 2 external hard drive.

    This Apple adapter was just what I needed to get my audio interface to work with my new MacBook Pro. It offers a slim, low profile design that makes it easy to use, as well as carry around when you are on the go.

    must have. if it’s not apple brand, no adapter on amazon will be able to replace this, especially if it’s for an apple display.
