Great value for what it is

After scouring the web for hours, looking at reviews for a usb c to a adapter, I stumbled across this one.

Many of the reviews indicated poor construction which lead to destruction of the adapter after a couple of uses. This is not the case with this one.

My only downside is that its not a couple of centimeter longer as the usb c port on my tablet is quite high.

Except from that, hallelujah, thanks PBTech :)

Best USB C to USB 3 converter

Best USB C to USB 3 converter with the extra length to avoid to damage the USB port.
I have 2 of those, I won't hesitate to get another one.

Expensive but worth it!

Great product with a short cable that help to secure the connection and avoid a tension on the USB type C port. It's expensive but worth it!

Does what it says on the tin

I nice, simple adapter that allows for some flexibility due to the short cable length. Used on a 2020 MacBook Pro, driving a Dell D3000 docking station with multiple monitors and works fine.
