Review on πŸ”Œ UGREEN Micro USB to USB Micro USB 2.0 OTG Cable 2 Pack - On The Go Adapter for Samsung, LG, DJI Spark, Mavic Remote Controller & More - Android Tablets, White by Brian Davis

Revainrating 5 out of 5

A much needed tool, IMO - updated

I ordered them in mid-March 2017 but wanted to give as accurate a review as possible. I've used them primarily on my phone to connect to my printer and once to download software onto a USB drive. I'm so happy! A few reasons why I love it so much: 1. Now I can print directly from my smartphone. I need schematics or hardware manuals all the time, so instead of going to my laptop to hook it up to my printer, I keep one of those cables with the printer and print it out from my phone! (I use the PrinterShare app) 2. I always have my phone with me. Smartphones are the most versatile "computers" we use, so it makes sense to always have a cable with me that makes my phone even more powerful and productive. I now have a third way to expand the phone's storage. I have a micro SD card in my phone, I use "cloud", third external storage or USB stick with these cables.4. The cables seem to be of good quality which makes the purchase even more worthwhile than I initially expected. I'm currently using a Samsung Galaxy Note 4 phone, just to give you an idea of the platform I'm using. I would definitely recommend these cables to anyone using their phone as a mini pc. I bought it from seller "Ugreen Group Limited" but had Revain do it which I think is important to list this information. I have met sellers with different products including fakes even if they are listed under the same brand. I will post an update with a durability rating. ***UPDATE*** 12/14/18 More than a year and a half later, this little adapter is still working. So far always makes a good connection. My main reason for using it is still to print from my phone. It's so convenient instead of having to set up my laptop. I use the phone more often than most people. I print directly from my phone's browser or I upload an image and print. I use the PrinterShare app on my phone which I have used on my phone for many years. I can change orientation, margins or other printer settings commonly used on a PC right before printing. I often print wiring diagrams for vehicles or equipment. or shipping labels, for example for returning parts. I'm glad I bought this. Haven't used the second one yet. The purchase is worthwhile. I will update again.
