USB-C to USB 3.0 OTG Adapter
This SMUGDESK adapter converts a USB-C port into a standard USB-A female socket. It lets owners of recent MacBook Pro models, Samsung Galaxy S and Note phones, and LG V or G series handsets attach flash drives, external SSDs, mice or keyboards directly. The cable suits anyone needing quick peripheral access on USB-C laptops, tablets or smartphones without carrying a bulky hub.
Driver-free plug-and-play connection
Insert the USB-C male end into the host device and plug a USB-A accessory into the female port; no software installation is required. The reinforced strain-relief joint resists bending stress that often cracks cheaper dongles during daily transport. Users should note the adapter is intended mainly for data transfer, so charging behaviour depends entirely on the host device specification.
Sustained USB 3.0 data throughput
The link maintains USB 3.0 transfer rates while copying large photo or video batches, avoiding the slowdown seen in burst-only designs. Premium connector housing and sturdy joint construction keep contact resistance stable during extended sessions. Compact dimensions allow the adapter to stay plugged in during mobile workflows without snagging on bag interiors.

Questions about this item
How do I verify the USB 3.0 OTG adapter is transferring at high speed after connecting a flash drive?
Plug a USB 3.0 flash drive into the adapter, connect to your USB-C device, then open a large file transfer; if speeds clearly exceed USB 2.0 rates the link is operating at USB 3.0.
What comes in the box and what must I provide separately?
The package contains only the USB-C male to USB-A female OTG adapter cable; you must supply the USB-C host device and any USB-A peripherals such as flash drives, mice or keyboards.
Which version should I choose for a MacBook Pro 2018 or Samsung Galaxy S10?
This single USB 3.0 OTG model is compatible with MacBook Pro 2018/2019, Samsung Galaxy S8/S9/S10, Note 8/9, LG V40 and G6; no alternative versions are offered.
