    Went through two items that were not working out of the box. Finally exchanged for a J5create brand and got a good device.

    You get what you pay for with this one. It does it's job, so my review is still positive. It's a bit nerve-wracking, though. The ampunt of force you have to put into pulling the USB type A device out of the slot for it made me nervous that I was going to do damage, but I got used to it enough that I don't think it'll be a problem for me. If you have the finesse to borderline yank something out without actually yanking it, and wouldn't rather pay for a better quality cable, I'd recommend this one.

    Not much to say besides that it does the job and is cheaper than the Apple branded one.

    main reason purchased was to connect my surface go but the cable will not give the hard drive power to opperate..., at least the usb drivers are recognized but not enough power to the external hard drive.

    This is just a cable that translates USB "C" to USB. I wish they had it in black but USB "C" is an apple design

    There's no reason for this transitional piece. Apple should've made the new Macs more versatile.

    The adapter stopped transferring information and i also bought a laptop/tablet keyboard combo from this company as well. All sorts of restarts on its own after updating and resetting multiple times. Ultimately just tossed it out
