This is a must when using old usb thumb drives with your MacBook that only has usb C’s. I keep it in my traveling case as it is nice and portable just in case I need it.

Great Adapter Option! Great to use for many different applications. Can use to convert your USB charge cord to USB-C and plug into newer blocks, or older peripherals. Works great with no issues. Great Apple Product!

Easy to use. Correct size. Average pricing. Durable. Universal.

Fast Answer: Works great / Fast speeds / No problems Stupidly I wired my entire house with new Cat6 lines and got to connecting the Mac up to the adapter I had bought for Ethernet to Lightning and slapped myself in the face. I had bought an ethernet to USB. So I quickly called up my local BestBuy and got this to finish the project. Great speed and high build quality. No complaints.

For the way I work, going between computers and not always having Wi-Fi available to use Cloud services, keeping files on portable drives is a necessity. With MacBook Air no longer including what were long USB standard ports, this cable is a necessity to use the drives that work with other devices. Works fine... as long as you remember to pack it!

These adapters are a convenient recourse for my needs with the M1 2021 MacBook Pro which has no USB connection. Works great just a bit messy with two of these adapters hanging from each side of my laptop. They seem a little snug and somewhat difficult to plug your USB device into but I am happy to have this option.

The rubber sheath encasing the PowerLine II is smooth yet grippy, and it’s quite durable, holding up after more than a year of daily wear and tear in our testing. The cable’s housings—the parts that connect the metal plugs to the body of the cable—are the sturdiest and most comfortable to grip of any we’ve tested. Made of a single piece of matte-textured rubber, the housings provide ample room for you to grasp the plug firmly while you’re plugging and unplugging, which is the best way to avoid fraying and breakage. When we plugged both ends of each cable into a variety of devices, we observed minimal wiggling; that stability ensures a solid connection for charging and data transfer.

Durable product, easy to use, good price, compatible with MacBook

The adapter help me to quickly save my files from my Mac! It was easy to install and use. I like it because it’s small and easy to store.

Nice to have with my new MacBook Air. Not realizing that you would need a way to adapt all your old USB devices abs cords into Apple’s new use of the USB-C this is a must have. Priced nice for the quality that you get. Bought a second one since this original purchase because it’s nice to have with you and a spare in my computer bag

2 years ago I invested in better quality charging cables for my iPhone. Then last year I had to get a new Mac and then saw that it used USB C. This adapter allowed me to use my iPhone charging cable with my computer using the adapter. Obviously cheaper than getting all new cables and anyway without the adapter I can still plug it into my outlet strip which accepts only the old USB. Am glad that so far that my 2 year old cables are still working fine and so is this adapter.

Does what we need it to, small and reliable, It's an adapter, enough said.

This is a great adapter to have and they automatically ask you if you want one because the new Macbook Pros only have thunderbolt ports. However, many things are using thunderbolt ports so it's really not that inconvenient. The new Galaxy phones use thunderbolt ports as a charger and it fits in the computer and vice versa. And it's small so you can bring it with you without a hassle or super long cord!

I got this to use with a card reader for my Mac. It works great and is compact and heavy duty.

Easy to connect a USB to an Apple MacBook Pro laptop. As a user who saves everything to a d: drive, I need a USB connected when I am working on any documentation, excel spreadsheets, genealogy, etc. so that I can save all my work and not have it cluttering up my hard drive on computer.

This may be pricier than other brands but hands down I've never had an issue with Apple adapters and this one is no exception. I own 3 of them, one at each of my office locations and one to travel with and I'm happy to pay for the peace of mind and stability that comes with this purchase as my job depends on it. I'm a video editor and my drives and peripherals connection is critical.

I own 3 of these USB-C to USB dongles. I have several USB hard drives and I use this item to connect them to my MacBook Pro. The connection is snug and the hard drives don't disconnect randomly.

I debated whether to buy an off-brand adapter or this Apple adapter. I ended up purchasing the Apple name brand because I read other adapters can potentially mess with the hard drive. This connecter is much needed if you have a newer MacBook laptop, but it is very handy!

Since USB ports are still the dominant connector, you’ll need a couple of these adapters. This Apple connector appears to be the best - very high quality. Yes, the cord is on the short side but that make it’s easily portable. I recommend above the other adapters and would buy it again.

This Apple USB-C to USB adapter is an essential for macbook users. Today's macbook comes only with USB-C ports making this adapter very handy and essential for those old devices having USB ports that needs to be connected to the macbook. This adapter appears well constructed and stays true to the design spirit of Apple. Hope this device last long through the years.
