Well made adapter, not the cheapest but seems well engineered - only time will tell how long it lasts. I'm using it with a 2015 Retina MacBook and so far it's handled everything I've tried, including; Connecting to a Nikon D600, connecting to and powering a WD My Passport HDD, assorted memory sticks, downloading photos from iPhone 5 and syncing/charging Kobo e-reader. I bought the "space grey" colour, and it's not a bad match for the MacBook (not exactly the same, but honestly it's close enough!).
Shame it doesn't come with some kind of small case or pouch, so it'd be less likely to scratch anything it's stored/carried with (it is hard aluminium with crisp edges - definitely don't chuck it in the same sleeve as your laptop). Without a case, or anywhere to attach a tether, I can see it easily getting lost.
You can get plastic adapters cheaper than this, but I'd seen good reviews of this one and it seemed worth treating myself to something decent. No regrets so far. I will update this review if there are any long term problems that appear.
I bought this myself, with my own hard-earned cash, and did NOT receive any kind of discount or freebie for writing this review (seriously, I feel I should mention that - 90% of the reviews I've read recently on electronics accessories seem to be sponsored, a disappointing trend).
[UPDATE] I've been using this for about a month now, and I started feeling a bit guilty about giving it 4 stars. I mean, it does everything it says it would, and does it well. So I've upgraded the rating to 5 stars. The only reason for withholding a star in the first place was the lack of a storage pouch, clip or lanyard - anything to stop it getting lost and/or rattling around loose in a bag. Hopefully Nonda will include this sometime in the future. A simple silicon rubber "bung" that plugged into the USB-A end, with a loop on it for a lanyard or clip would be all that's needed, and surely wouldn't cost much to manufacture in large quantities (if I had any Sugru I'd be tempted to try and make my own!).
