USB C Adapters 4 Pack, USB C to USB 3.0 OTG Adapter, Micro USB to USB C Adapter Compatible with MacBook Pro, Samsung Galaxy, Smartphones, Laptop, PC, in Car and More

I bought these adapters to convert a USB-C to USB plug. My Garmin watch came with a charging cord that only had a USB-C plug. Garmin watches use a very unique interface and I couldn't just buy a cord that had a USB end. I've used the adapter my times and it works perfectly.

Some days it seems like I never the correct cable for my needs.. This assortment gives me options to get buy or patch in an odd piece.

Got stuck on a weekend in Europe with a rental car needing a non-USA charge cord fitting. I never expected this problem?The adapter kit had a perfect piece to solve my problem in seconds.The adapter kit saved countless headaches. I have no regrets and should probably buy another spare kit.

Good

I love having this pack on hand. Everyone in my family has needed it several times since I've had it (yes, this is actually the 2nd time I've bought this exact set). My son got tired of borrowing mine all the time & finally asked for his own set.I looked at several other brands & sets of adapters to see if something better has come along since my original purchase almost 2 years ago. We do not own any Apple products & all other sets come with adapters that we will never use and/or does not come with all 4 of these different types. Also, even though I bought this set almost 2 years ago, most newer adapter sets are still USB 2.0, while this one is 3.0.And the price is a phenomenal deal. My son's face lit up when I gave him his own set. (He uses this pack quite often for connecting his laptop to desktop, phone to TV, wireless Nintendo Switch remotes to the Switch, etc etc. So many uses!

Gives me the ability to connect about anything to anything.

Works.

I just got these today so I haven't used them extensively to see how reliable and rugged they are over the long run, plus I've only used the USB-C to USB-A and USB-C to MicroUSB adapters so far, and mostly just the USB-C to USB-A so I can use my new Samsung 256GB USB-C mini flash drive (the cute little blue plastic one that comes with a dust cover) in the front panel USB-A 3.1 Gen 1 port of my desktop PC, which only has a single rear back panel USB-C 3.2 Gen 2x2 port that's hard to get to, at least until I get the new front panel USB and card reader I just ordered that has USB-C ports.So I ran CrystalDiskMark on the thumb drive, first using the back panel USB-C 3.2 Gen 2x2 port and then using the USB-C to USB-A adapter in the front panel USB 3.1 Gen 1 port. With the former I got around 430/120 read/write, and with the latter I got around 400/120, so just a tiny read speed loss and basically none on writes. I confirmed this by inserting the drive with adapter into my USB-A 3.1 Gen 1 hub as well as in one of the USB-A 3.1 Gen 1 hub ports in my Seagate 8TB external HD, and I got comparable if just slightly slower read and identical write results.So I can safely say, albeit unscientifically, that at least the USB-C to USB-A adapter work great and barely slows things down. I haven't tested it for charging but I don't intend to use it for that, nor have I tested the other adapters yet except the USB-C to MicroUSB one briefly on my mini solar panel and charge controller using a USB-C cable, and I saw no decrease in output relative to a straight MicroUSB cable. But we're talking 1-2A output and not QC or PD. Also, these do have plastic bodies so they're not super rugged compared to metal, which I would have preferred but that's probably unreasonable at this price. But they seem solid enough so just be careful.One strange quirk I did find was that they only work properly in one orientation. Meaning, if you try to flip the USB connector around, speeds are reduced drastically, like by 90%. E.g. instead of 400/120 I'd get 40/12 or so. Not sure why but if you get these make sure to find out which is the correct orientation to use. My guess is that many of the negative reviews were due to people not realizing that, despite the USB-C standard that mandates that either orientation should work the same, these don't respect that standard.So, caveats aside, I'm glad I bought these and am more than happy with their performance.
