Review on πŸ”Œ Black Certified Thunderbolt Cable Matters by Justin Guldin

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Blast from my past.

Needless to say, they don't just sit around at any electronics store or department; Thunderbolt 3 is currently on everyone's lips. But I still use a peripheral (UA Apollo Twin Solo) that requires this protocol, so it was great to see it here. The only real knock I have against it is that it's very thin in my hand. I'm concerned that this might become an issue over time as it's pretty easy to short out after an accidental kink. But time will tell. It's the only white one I know of here, so I hope it lasts long enough. Apollo x4 (updated since first review). friends and neighbors.? I'm back in business! This cable is REAL! Now I had to remember that this is NOT a hot swap and I had to follow the connection sequence to make sure it connected, but that's exactly what I ordered! I use it with an Apple TB 3 to TB 2 certified adapter so it's just great! I'm still a bit worried about the cable's design, but if it lasts me until I upgrade my MacBook, it's worth it!

Pros
  • computer accessories and peripherals
Cons
  • boring packaging
