One end of this adaptor is a USB-C male plug and the other a standard sized USB female socket. It comes in a small cardboard box, with no plastic packaging involved. Hoorah.
NEITHER are capable of USB 3.1 'speeds' using the 'type C' port or connector (since the Type A port or connector WILL be slower (USB 3.0), and that assumes that NEITHER adaptor are FAKES of 'usb 3.0 or 3.1').
NEITHER was capable of transmitting enough voltage or wattage or amps through it to charge or power my iPad 8, even WITHOUT adding the Amazon purchased 'Apple Lightning to usb 3 camera adaptor'.
But since ALL THREE ADAPTORS I bought from the Amazon (uk) store - including an 'Apple Lightning USB 3.0 camera adaptor' had to be returned as 'not working' or 'faulty', I have to assume either faulty or fake.
A presumably GENUINE (because it actually works, and was bought in an Apple Store), Lightning to usb 3 camera adaptor, cost me £40, plus another £40 for a Belkin Lightning to USB C charge & sync cable (also from the Apple Store).
The above items from Amazon cost hell of a lot less, but they also did not work.
- Plug & play (works right away)
- Shape and design match Apple's own, so fits in well with Apple products
- Tested on iPad Pro (2019), MacBook Air (2019), MacBook Pro (2019) and iMac (2018) and works well across all
- Durable, flexible cable which seems built to last.
CONS:
- None

Cons - Bit more expensive than comparable products on eBay but at least you know it will work. Not really a con but worth noting that the cable is per the picture in the listing (short) now as I just wanted it as an adaptor that is not an issue but just bear this in mind.
The first time I plugged it in Windows 11 said in devices "Device can perform faster when connected to USB 3", and I got 25MBytes per second
Every time since, the Windows 11 has marked the drive as "Connected to USB 3" and I've got full speed. I've tried connecting in different orders (plugging into the computer and then plugging the drive in, or connecting to the drive cable and then plugging into to the computer) and I can't make that initial glitch re-occur. So just a tip for anyone not getting the expected speed - unplug and plug in in again :-)
So, it *does* do exactly what it claims to do, it's not expensive - but it doesn't look or feel cheaply made .
This cable allows me to use any other cable of my choosing since it converts that USB C to a standard USB plug.
This way I can charge any device from this Apple charger.
I am not sure if I still get the quick charge speed by using this adapter but overall the quality is very good and it looks like it would last a good long time.
