Nonda USB-C to USB Adapter (2 Pack) - Thunderbolt 3 to USB Female OTG for MacBook Pro 2019/2018/2017, MacBook Air 2018, Surface Go, and More Type-C Devices

I purchased the nonda USB C to USB Adapter (2 Pack) for my MacBook Pro 2021 at the unbeatable price of just £5.19 in Grey, and I must say, they have been an excellent addition to my accessories. These adapters allow seamless use of USB-A accessories with my USB-C ports, and they perform flawlessly. I am unable to comment on the color matching as I opted for a different color than my MacBook. The build quality of these adapters is truly impressive. They feel sturdy and well-made, and upon using them, I can confirm that they just work as intended without any issues. There were no connection problems, and I experienced no dropouts or data transfer hiccups. It's worth mentioning that you cannot use two of these adapters side by side due to the MacBook design, but honestly, that hasn't posed any problem for me during regular usage. At such an affordable price, the nonda USB C to USB Adapter (2 Pack) is a fantastic value for money. They provide an affordable solution for connecting my USB-A devices to my MacBook Pro with USB-C ports. If you're in need of reliable and efficient adapters, I highly recommend giving these a try. The quality and performance are fantastic, making them an excellent value for money.

Due to my old MacBook Pro frying its graphics chip, I've been forced to purchase a newer model (decided on a 2018) which of course comes equipped with 4 x USBC ports. I have amassed a collection of cables which plugged into my old MacBook utilising USB2, USB3, RJ45 and mini Display Port, so the problem was how am I going to use all my peripherals without running out of ports or purchasing lots of new cables. Well, part of the answer was to purchase these Nonda USB3 to USBC adaptors. I'd never heard of Nonda, but based on their small size (approx 16mm width) they looked ideal to terminate my USB3 cables. Good value at 2 in a pack for £8.60, but to be honest I didn't have high hopes for the quality. However, they arrived very quickly and I was pleasantly surprised on opening the simple but adequate packaging, that the case is machined aluminium with a silky smooth anodised finish...very nice indeed. The colour blends well with the Space Gray Macbook Pro, but not an exact match...this isn't a problem for me. So do they work? Yes perfectly! Pushed them onto the ends of my USB 2 and 3 cables and plugged them in the MacBook where they entered the socket with a firm push ending in an audible and tactile click. Nice and secure! As always the USB2/3 cable is a reasonably secure push fit into the adaptor, it could be pulled out if you tried hard enough, but if its critical it doesn't get removed, I would personally tape it to the adaptor. This is a failing of USB 2/3 design and no reflection on the Nonda product. On each side of the adaptor are some very finely knurled grip panels. I'm guessing this is pressed or cast into the surface, not as sharp as cut knurling but does the job equally and perfect for grasping the adaptor when removing. It's worth noting that you can't fit two of these adaptors side by side in the MacBook as there isn't enough room between the two USBC inputs. On the basis of the above I would certainly recommend them but I can't comment on the durability of of these small adaptors as I've only just received them, but they look like they will last. Almost forgot, if you register them on the Nonda website, you get an additional 2 years warranty...so 3 years warranty in all. 👍

The adapter works as expected and sits flush with the laptop. They’re simple to use and are Plug and Play so work straight out of the box without drivers or other software. The fact that this is a 2-pack makes it even better value as it means I have a spare for when I inevitability lose one. There are two downsides, in my opinion. Firstly, they are too wide to use both simultaneously on a MacBook Air (I would assume this is also the case for the MacBook Pro). Secondly, the gold version doesn’t match the gold MacBook Air M1. It’s more of a yellow gold but it’s only cosmetic and doesn’t not impact performance. In hindsight, I would buy the space grey version just because the gold colour doesn’t match and it is the darkest colour available. For the price and performance, I’d definitely recommend these adapters.

Recent Macbooks (and Windows devices, such as the Dell XPS) only have USB-C connectivity to the world, which, by and large, hasn't caught up and is still using large USB Type A connectors for USB 3,2 and 1. These little converters should be standard issue with Macbooks, etc, but they aren't. As I needed to buy them I was looking for something substantial and not too expensive. At £6 this double pack does the job admirably. They are metal bodied, so are effectively shielded from emitting interference that could knock out wireless devices (like mice and keyboards); this also makes them nice and solid - you won't bend these easily. They are about an inch long so don't take up much space and don't tilt downwards when a Type A plug is inserted (as can happen with larger dongles). They are a good solid fit so shouldn't come loose. They are a dark grey in colour (space grey ?), have a useful finger grip on the sides, making them easier to remove from sockets and feel substantial. The only down side I can see is that the USB 'tongue' is grey, not blue as is the norm for USB-3 devices. Not important, but a minor detail, certainly not worth removing a star for.

Fabulous adaptors - small yet effective. No connection issues and they look really good!

Very good quality.

Really well made adapter, very solid, quality feel to it. The adapter is housed in a metal case with nice machining to give it grip on the sides. Both the socket and the plug work as intended with them both giving a good fit. Enables me to utilise the USB C port at the front of my PC case [Phanteks Evolv X for those wanting to know if this will fit in that space]. Speed wise, testing with the same USB drive between the USB 3.1 socket and the USB C socket at the front of my case, I got the same speed from both sockets but that was to be expected. The port is there though and I prefer C over A as you never need to try 3 times to get it to plug in.

I recently purchased the latest Apple iPad Air and I needed to attach an external hard drive. I found these adapters from Nonda, never heard of them before, but you are getting 2 for less than £7, so I thought why not. Delivery was next day and free, ordered them in the afternoon and arrived next day. Nicely packaged and I was very pleased with the quality, they look well made with a nice finish and are a tight enough fit that they won’t wobble. Used them on numerous occasions now and they work perfectly. Would highly recommend and don’t forget to register your product for a 3yr warranty.

The nonda USB C to USB 3.0 Adapter is a compact, useful accessory that certainly comes in handy, especially when you have devices with different types of USB connections. First and foremost, the build quality is excellent. The adapters feel solid, with a satisfyingly sleek silver finish that perfectly matches my MacBook Pro. The plug-and-play functionality is smooth and hassle-free, making these adapters a convenient solution for connecting my USB 3.0 devices to my MacBook. The data transfer speed is impressive as well, maintaining the USB 3.0 speeds as advertised. Whether I was transferring large files or simply using a peripheral device, the adapter performed reliably without any noticeable lags or hiccups. One of the standout features is the OTG compatibility, which allowed me to connect USB peripherals directly to my iPad Pro. It’s a great feature that significantly enhances the iPad Pro’s capabilities. Despite all these positives, there are a few things that could be improved. The adapters do tend to heat up with prolonged use, which can be a bit concerning. Although it hasn’t caused any functional issues so far, I’ll definitely be keeping an eye on it. Another point of critique is the fit. While it is generally secure, it can be slightly loose when plugged into the USB-C port, especially on my iPad Pro. A tighter fit would provide a little more peace of mind. All in all, the nonda USB C to USB 3.0 Adapters are compact, efficient, and highly functional, making them a valuable addition to any tech arsenal. However, be prepared for minor issues like heating and slightly loose fit. Nonetheless, if you’re in need of a high-performing adapter and these minor caveats don’t concern you, these are worth considering. Thanks for reading my review, and best of luck in finding the right tech accessory for your needs!

Solía utilizar un hub USB-C marca Belkin porque mi disco duro externo requería dos entradas USB A, pero ya que recientemente actualicé mi disco duro por un SSD con entrada directa a USB-C, dejé de ver necesario el tener un hub y decidí cambiarlo por algo más sencillo que me dejara conectar un USB-A común y corriente a mi MacBook de vez en cuando. Busqué varias opciones y estuve a punto de comprar el Adaptador USB C a USB 3,0 más vendido de Amazon (uno negro con la entrada azul y que parece un USB por sí mismo), pero lo que me detuvo de hacerlo fue su diseño que a mi parecer, está muy feo. Después de una buena búsqueda, encontré estos adaptadores fabricados por Nonda, y no saben como me alegro de no haber comprado los adaptadores negros que encontré primero. 1. Me encantó que vienen dos adaptadores en un mismo paquete (sólo utilizo uno, pero voy a guardar el otro como reemplazo). Estéticamente, estos adaptadores están muy bonitos ya que aparte de que no son nada estorbosos por su tamaño tan pequeño (a diferencia del hub Belkin que tenía), no tienen logotipo y eso para mí es un excelente valor agregado ya que el adaptador se ve como si fuera parte de la MacBook y no se hace notar. 2. En cuanto al color, mi MacBook es color Space Gray por lo que estuve a punto de adquirir los adaptadores de otra publicación, que al menos en las fotos, se veían color Space Gray. Afortunadamente, las reseñas de usuarios que ya habían comprado esos adaptadores en ese color comentaban que no eran color Space Gray y que eran un color más fuerte, por lo que buscando otro color, di con ésta publicación y curiosamente las personas que habían comprado en esta publicación estos adaptadores color plata, comentaban lo mismo porque pensaban que estos adaptadores eran color Plata para la MacBook color Plata pero no; ¡ESTOS SON LOS VERDADEROS ADAPTADORES COLOR SPACE GRAY! No sé porque hayan decidido nombrar mal los colores pero, SI TIENES UNA MACBOOK AIR O MACBOOK PRO COLOR SPACE GRAY, COMPRA ESTOS ADAPTADORES COLOR PLATA YA QUE SON LOS QUE VAN A COMBINAR PERFECTAMENTE CON TU MACBOOK SPACE GRAY. La única cuestión es que si estos adaptadores color plata son los que le combinan perfectamente a una MacBook color Space Gray, no sé que color de adaptador (al menos en éste modelo hecho por Nonda) es el que realmente le combina a una MacBook color Plata; pero supongo que si no te molesta que tus adaptadores sean de un color más obscuro que tu MacBook Plata, estos también se verán muy bien. 3. Yo únicamente necesito un USB-A conectado a la vez, pero si tú eres de los que necesitan los dos adaptadores conectados al mismo tiempo, no te servirán ya que por el grosor de los mismos, se estorban el uno al otro y no podrás tenerlos conectados al mismo tiempo. La única excepción a esto último es si tienes la MacBook Pro que tiene 4 puertos USB-C/Thunderbolt 3 ya que podrás conectar un adaptador de un lado, y el otro del lado opuesto. Así que si necesitas que tus adaptadores queden juntos y tienes una MacBook Air o MacBook Pro con únicamente 2 puertos USB-C/Thunderbolt 3, te recomiendo mejor contemples comprar un USB-C Hub. 4. Como un extra muy importante: leí en reseñas de adaptadores USB-C de otros modelos y marcas que al conectarlos a la computadora, interferían con el Wi-Fi y se desactivaba. Con estos adaptadores Nonda, no hay nada de que preocuparse (al menos con éste modelo que NO tiene logotipo). ¡El Wi-Fi funciona de manera perfecta e ininterrumpida mientras el adaptador está conectado a la computadora! En general, estoy muy contento con mi compra, así que si lo que realmente necesitas es un adaptador USB-C bonito, minimalista, con excelente funcionamiento y que combine de manera perfecta con tu MacBook Space Gray, ¡estos adaptadores Nonda color Plata son la opción indicada!

These items are great and really useful where you might have an older charging cable eg: an older iPad like I have with a USB-A charging cable but sometimes come across newer USB-C charging infrastructure. Very handy to have to cover all bases and they’re sturdy, reliable and good value. Recommended.
