This is a great piece of kit to transfer media from your phone onto USB drives. Once inserted into your phone, it is automatically mounted and ready to use. Before you remove the cable with a connected USB drive from the phone, remember to unmount the drive first, to prevent any problems.

Works very well. Nice kit.

The product: This works great with my Samsung Note 8. I can transfer files to and from my phone quickly to USB sticks, which is why I bought it. Build quality is good and it does exactly what I want it to. Highly recommended. Some background Information on why I bought it: I have always transferred files from an OTG USB stick from my PC to my phone using my trusty Sandisk. SanDisk SDDD2-016G-GAM46 Ultra Dual USB 3.0 Flash Drive However my Note 8, has a USB-C port, so the Sandisk won't fit. Undeterred, I used the adapter that comes with the Note 8, however that didn't work. I contacted Samsung about it, and after some questions about what I was trying to do, they asked me to send my phone away, which I was not prepared to do. (I was also invited to take my phone to a "drop-in" centre, but I didn't believe there was anything wrong with my phone. Anyway, I bought a USB-C Sandisk stick SanDisk Ultra 64 GB Dual USB Flash Drive USB 3.0 Type-C , which worked fine in my phone, but cannot be used while the phone is in its protective case, and the case, although excellent, is awkward to get on and off in a hurry. Samsung Galaxy Note 8 case, i-Blason [Ares] Full-body Rugged Clear Bumper Case with Built-in Screen Protector for Samsung Galaxy Note 8 2017 Release (Black) So I still had a file transfer problem, and needed a solution to allow me to quickly and conveniently transfer files. I had a search on Amazon for USB-C OTG cables and came across this. Being an Anker product, I knew I could rely on great quality and value with excellent aftercare, so I bought it with confidence and, as expected, it worked perfectly.

This adapter and product performs exactly as you would expect; it will connect to any device that uses USB-C for data transfer and charging (you can find if your phone uses USB-C by finding a diagram of what it looks like online, or by searching for the specification of your phone) The other end of this adapter is a standard USB port that is apparently capable of USB3 speeds although I have not tested this. I have used this adapter on various occasions over the last 6 months and it has worked every single time with a variety of devices, I have so far tested it using a webcam, and a USB3 sd card reader; the main limiting factor on what appliances it will support are your phone or tablets operating system (I have used this only on an Android 9 and 10 device) My only complaint about the product is that the USB end (blue) is very tight when trying to disconnect from your appliance and sometimes it feels like it is going to break; this end is also slightly bent out of shape so this may be the cause of my issue. Overall, very happy with this purchase and would buy it again.

Flawless exactly what was requied

I lost my AudioQuest Dragonfly Cobalt "Dragon tail" lead. I could not source a replacement USB A female to USB C lead from AudioQuest at all. Other genuine Dragontail leads, (with the wrong type connectors) were available at extortionate prices online for £25 plus. Luckily I found this Anker lead which is virtually identical to the AudioQuest lead, at a small fraction of the price! This is an excellent replacement lead and everything is fine with the DAC again connected to my mobile. High quality sound using the DAC has resumed again. If you need a replacement lead, this is the one!

Being a Non Techie, my IT Super King of a Son told me to buy this and how to attach it up! It worked! No idea why but it did!

My son likes it
