It has taken quite a while, but in the end it seems that cl USB-C type connector It has finally been standardized in the industry and today it is rare to buy a device that does not have it. However, there are times when for whatever reason you either don’t have enough of these ports available, or you just want to use a device that makes use of regular USB Type-A so why not use a usb-c adapter? In this article we are going to show you different connection options with USB adapters, but that you can also buy on sale to save money.
So, as we have explained in the previous paragraph, we are going to see the two options: that you need to have more USB-C ports available, or that you already have USB-C ports but the device you want to connect does not have this connector ( and don’t worry because there is an adapter for everything).
Connect your “lifelong” USBs with this USB-C adapter
Let’s see the first of the cases: you have a device that uses the USB connector that we have been using for a long time, the so-called rectangular Type-A… yes, the one that we never managed to get right the first time, and you want to connect it to a port USB-C. Nowadays laptops already come with several of these ports, and in fact even PC cases and motherboards have at least a couple, so it’s a fairly common situation.
In this case, you need a USB-A to USB-C adapter like the one we show you both in the image above and below, since it will be what will allow you to connect your old device to the new one. Luckily, the conversion is easy (though keep in mind that even if you end up using USB-C, the device you connect will still work at its normal rated speed for whatever type of USB it has) and the adapter is fairly cheap.
We therefore recommend this Syntech adapter, which also comes in a pack of 2 units and in which you can choose between six different colors. It is already cheap in itself, but in Amazon’s own online store it has a 5% discount that you can apply directly to the purchase and, in addition, you can save an additional 5% if you buy 4 or more units.
Otherwise: You need more USB-C ports
It is quite common that, even in modern computers, they only come with a USB-C port (or with none in the case of somewhat older computers)… and of course, since today almost all devices are connected via USB-C , the need for an adapter may be a real need, despite the redundancy.
So, in this case we are going to recommend two types of adapter, we start with the case that your computer does not have any USB-C, so using a conventional USB-A this adapter will give you USB-C connectivity to be able to plug in your devices.
As you can see, the adapter that we recommend is just the opposite of the previous one; In this case, it comes in a pack of 3 units, is available in 8 different colors, and has a 34% discount so you can save some money on your purchase.
Let’s go to the last case: you have a USB-C port but you want to multiply it, in which case what you need is a hub more than an adapter, which are somewhat more expensive.
This hub that we recommend will provide you with a total of 4 USB-C ports using only one of your equipment, which is not bad at all. Right now it has a €3 discount coupon in the online store itself, so you just have to make sure you check the box when making the purchase.
