Review on πŸ”Œ 3 in 1 Ethernet Adapter with USB Camera and Charging, USB Female OTG, Support for USB Flash Drive, MIDI Keyboard, Mouse, High-Speed Transfer by Chris Hanson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Very practical: USB network adapter

Summary: I like it and it works well. I am happy with my purchase. I work in the AV industry and need to connect to multiple devices such as projectors and audio mixers for setup and control, and sometimes I need a wired network connection. This adapter works well in my tests for it. When connected to a network router, everything works the same as it does over WiFi. However, I was unable to connect directly to the Christie projector with a network cable like I would with a Mac or PC. It seems to be a limitation of iOS, not this adapter. There are options to manually set the IP address, but DHCP works better. The USB port is handy for transferring photos from iPhone to iPad and I think it's easier than Air Dump because you can select pictures on the big screen. I couldn't extract files from GoPro Session 5. I think this is a GoPro limitation or user error. Additionally, I think it will work great for a DSLR or any camera that allows you to view files directly when connected to a computer. The final connector is the Lightning charging connector, which works as expected with no compatibility issues. The build quality feels solid and is similar to Apple products. This is one of those devices that solves a few weird issues and allows me to use my iPad Pro in more situations.

Pros
  • Computer and accessories
Cons
  • Fade-out
