Review on [10Gbps] USB C Female To USB Male Adapter (2-Pack) by Will Bremer

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Same as 3 other types claiming 10 Gbps. None of them work reliably over USB 3.0 speeds.

Two in a pack and both will NOT work at 10Gb/s. These two devices kept crashing computers when plugged into a USB 3.2 Gen 2 port and trying to copy files to two different external NVME drives, but worked fine with 5GB - USB 3.0. I've tried 4 different types that take up 10GB but NONE of them work at that speed. One guy, not this one, read almost 10GB but didn't write at full speed. All four types worked fine on USB 3.0. As other reviewers have stated, the speed of USB 2.0 in a wired position and USB 3.0 when the USB-C connector is flipped. Tried them all on 4 different computers; FX990, Z270, x88, X570. Exactly the same results for all. The best device was the cheapest at less than $5, it worked and could read at 90% of the rated speed when connected directly with a USB-C to USB-A cable. I only recommend buying them if they will be used with a USB3.0 connector and NOT a GEN2 connector.

Pros
  • ⚡️ Fast Charge - Built-in dual 56kΩ pull-up resistors and supports fast charge up to 100W 20V 5A. Other brands on the market only support 1-3A charge. It charges devices faster and more efficiently. (Note: Due to charging protocol incompatibilities, this adapter will not work with your 12 Magsafe charger or MacBook charger.)
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for seniors
