Customer Ratings & Reviews

Although it seemed a little expensive at the time I bought it, it has been excellent for hooking up anything I've needed!

Good adapter for your newer MacBook Air or anything Apple has decided to delete ports on and just leave you with UBB-C ports. However, this thing gets hot. It has a metal shell that gets very warm to the touch. It also draws down your battery. Works best when connected to power. Another thing to consider the shell and cable end are metal. So they will scratch your computer if left to in your bag loose. Other wise it does work good.

I have a newer HP laptop with one HDMI port. I wanted two monitors. I was looking for a product to allow plugging in another monitor from a USB port. I looked at various reviews and this product looked good. It would use the USB Type-C port which is faster. However, when I plugged in the adapter I immediately saw a message on my screen that "Display connection might be limited". Sure enough the HDMI port on the adapter did not function. After hours of research I determined that the adapter is just fine. The laptop has generation 1 USB Type-C which does not support display output. I wish I had known that! I bought another j5create adapter that would go from USB Type-A to HDMI. I plugged this one into one of the USB Type-A ports on the Type-C adapter and the HDMI worked almost immediately. I did not even have to download any driver. Actually, when I went to the j5create site and tried to download a driver, Malwarebytes strongly suggested not doing that. I dunno, I have downloaded other drivers with no complaint by Malwarebytes. Anyway, make sure your USB Type-C supports generation 2 if you want to use the HDMI output. By the way, I bought the laptop from Best Buy. Looking at the specs on the Best Buy site for the laptop it is not clear that the USB Type-C port does not support display. I had to go to the HP site and get a technical manual (supposedly only for technicians who work on the laptop) to determine the facts.

I love love love this attachment! It solves many problems. It works well, is small, easy to use. Perfect!

Solid piece of equipment. Used to connect pixel slate to monitor which is was used for remote learning.

I love, love, love my new Surface Laptop 3 (15"). But the ONLY thing I don't like is the substantive lack of ports. It was hard for me to believe that it had fewer ports than my Surface Pro 4! So, I needed something that would allow me to hook up all my gizmos to my new amazing computer. This did the trick! When I'm not at my desk (where I have a Surface Dock that does all that), this is the perfect portable hub to connect all the goodies to your slimmed down laptop (even if it's not a Surface - USB-C is awesome).

Charging stations, card adapter, Ethernet, HDMI, etc all in one small stylish block. Very much worth a few extra dollars...

I’ve owned this dongle for a year or so now I believe and I’ve used it with my MacBook Pro, Mac mini desktop and also my iPad Pro this thing is compatible with them all . The transfer speeds are a little slow and the dongle gets hot but it has never failed me

Got a new laptop and needed more ports. This definitely was exactly what I was looking for.

Small size hub is convenient for my use. Has sufficient amount of ports

Great adapter that has almost all the ports that you need to get it done.easy to use and power pass through.

This works great with my Dell laptop. I am able to plug multiple devices in.

This thing is awesome does everything I need it to with ports to spare. A little pricy though.

Just what I needed. Now I can use my Mac air for the purpose I purchased it.

Plugged in and was usable right away. The Wife's new laptop just needs a few extra ports once in a while or the capability of reading a SD card from her Doxie. I would only ask for a slightly longer cord.

This adapter works very well for my purposes since I periodically need to connect via and HDMI cable for a large display, connect various USB memory sticks or SD cards. Also the ability to connect a laptop to a hard-wired network connection makes for much quicker backups and downloads. My only possible complaint is that the unit does run quite warm.

Super easy-to-use, pretty compact, and not a bad price.

I cannot function without this adapter. I have a MacBook PRo that just has USB C ports. This adapter - including the USCB C port makes my setup very easy. IT offloads 2 USBC ports I use for external monitors. All-in-All a must for any serious home setup

No complaints. So far it works well and I bought it mostly to cast hdmi from my computer as there is not one built in. It worked as it should had. I had to download some software for it and I didn't find navigating the website all that easy but I was able to figure it out

Needed extra UBS ports for my new HP laptop. This works well and sits nicely behind my laptop out of the way.
