The best adapter for Macbook Pro

At first I wanted to return it after reading the reviews. Mine seems to be in perfect condition, no problems. It easily attaches to either side and properly tilts to the side of the laptop. The color may vary slightly, but if you close your computer and look down at the curved surface from above, it matches almost perfectly. Mine didn't eat memory cards, but unless you're stupid enough to put them in there I don't see how you could have this problem. The video output works well with my external display, the USB port charges my PAX3, and the charging port works through the adapter. So overall I'd say it's a great device. I ordered USB-C cables for all my devices, but one of the USB-C to HDMI cables didn't work with my computer. Good to have. Expensive if you have problems like some of the other reviewers. I'm not sure if I'm lucky or if other people are just too clumsy to put their cards in without ruining them. I posted an image so you can see the color of the device compared to a Macbook and a Bose speaker.

Pros
  • USB hubs
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.
