    It’s shame that all Apple products cost so darn much! A little adapter like this was $50 yet if you haven’t upgraded your computer and other components to TB3 then you are stuck with buying an adapter. I will say this though, it works great and does the job.

    Works as hoped. I wasn't sure if the original thunderbolt connection would work, and it did. Would definitely recommend this product.

    Sped up my transfer from old imac to new from 24hr to 4hr so it worked good. All apple stuff is overpriced but it lasts longer.

    Didn't have to buy new monitors when we updated our macbooks. This helps you connect to a Thunderbolt display with a new macbook. We haven't had any issues.

    Was not able to make the Thunder Bolt connection work to transfer files from a 2013 iMac 27" to a new iMac 24" though I am still trying. The consensus from Apple was that it SHOULD work!

    The only reason I returned this product back to Best-buy is because it was the wrong connection to my computer.

    If you need to connect an older Thunderbolt cable to a newer Mac, then this is one of your only options. So 5 stars for the actual adapter, but 1 star for Apple over charing for it.

    Works as expected. Unfortunately it seems that when Apple releases a new product, you have to buy different charging cords and adapters

    What can I say? It's one of many adaptors that any pro level user would need in order to use the new Apple MacBook Pro computers. The adapter works fine....less happy with with the new apple design though.

    Does exactly what you expect it to do. Enables the new USB C/Thunderbolt 3 to work perfectly (backward compatible) with Thunderbolt 2 and 1 connections (and Apple mini display port).

    it works well but it’s very expensive you would think for an adapter it would only be fifteen to twenty dollars twenty five tops for forty nine crazy
