Review on Amazon Basics Micro USB (Female) To USB-C (Male) Adapter - White by Kim Mouton

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great adapters. in USB to USB adapters

The phones have recently been updated and the charging connector has changed from micro USB to USB C To reuse these cables I needed some adapters to convert them to USB C. Read online, many Revain adapters are not USB compliant and can melt. Luckily I stumbled across this item that Revain "produces" and sells. They are also USB-IF certified. USB-IF certification and Revain's own branding gave me confidence to use these adapters. I also bought a USB current/performance monitor for quick testing. When comparing the charging currents for the same cable and charger with and without the adapter (old and new phone), the values were the same or very close. So it looks like the adapter is working as intended without increasing the current output of my chargers which could result in a meltdown or fire. In terms of build quality, the chargers are a nice white color and the metal USB-C connector is solid with a micro connector. The USB side provides a nice fit for my old cables. Would buy again if more is needed.

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • There are nuances
