Review on StarTech.com USB C to Ethernet Adapter with Power Delivery and 3 Ports - Power Pass Through Charging - Black (US1GC303APD) by Tony Elliott

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Almost perfectly fits my 2017 MacBook

Product code US1GC303APD = 3 USB + Ethernet + USB PD ports with VIA/VLI chip + Realtek Advantages: ► Charges my MacBook with Apple USB-C power supply 29 Watt ► charges my iPhone when connected to the internet ► no drivers required ► cold/warm (not hot) ► cable management (one side goes to MacBook, one side goes to peripherals) ► compact size Cons: ► don't forget to disable USB Drive before disconnecting USB PD as everything is disconnected and immediately reconnected when the power source is switched from USB-C AC adapter to MacBook battery ► Regardless of USB PD, the device charges iPad Pro 1st Gen 12.9" not as an extended display with the Duet App Wishlist: ► Detachable cable so I can use a longer cable between my Macbook and Meta inside the ► body of the device which also acts as a heatsink

Pros
  • A dream comes true
Cons
  • Not everything fits
