Nonda USB-C to USB 3.0 Mini Adapter review: Turn any USB-C port into a USB 3.0 port in a second
For about $10, you can quickly turn any USB-C port into a regular USB 3.0 port with this little device.
The Nonda USB-C to USB 3.0 Mini Adapter plugs into a USB-C port and lets you plug USB 3.0 devices like traditional portable drives into it.
The Good
Quickly turns a USB-C port into a regular USB 3.0 port. It's only 10 bucks.
The Bad
Nothing. Like I said, it's only $10.
The Bottom Line
The Nonda USB-C to USB 3.0 Mini Adapter is the cheapest way to connect your iPhone or iPad to your new MacBook and is totally worth its $10 price.
And it works amazingly well, supporting virtually every USB device I threw at it, including an SD card reader, a few portable drives, many thumbdrives, one printer, an iPhone 6S and an iPad Air .
In fact, at just $10, this Nonda adapter is the cheapest way to connect your iPhone or iPad to your new MacBook Pro or 12-inch MacBook. Otherwise, you'll need to spend $25 for a USB-C-to-Lightning cable.
