Polymer Cables Thunderbolt Usb Deliver More

Great machine...newly used so time will tell...but so far very impressed. Set up was a breeze...and it updated the software quickly within the first hour of turning on. Unit has 2 USB ports and 4 Thunderbolt ports...so...if you plan on hooking up more than 2 USB devices standard way...think again. Get yourself either 4 Thunderbolt USB cables or 4 Thunderbolt Type C to USB extenders cables to hook your standard USB cables to. We purchased the Type C to USB extenders from a third party and they work just fine. Unit is slightly bigger than older previous Mac mini's but the height is shorter on the new ones...so it's a slight compromise...no big deal. Silent operation as usual, HDMI port is a great feature and works flawlessly. We used an existing apple mouse and keyboard which were recognized...although the keyboard wasn't recognized so easily...but somehow seems to be working...so we're going with it. No problems dealing with B&H...fast and reliable company it seems. Will do business with them again in future.

It does what it is supposed to do. It came with cables to connect to both a USB A and USB C. Nice packaging. More expensive than other options but seems very well made.

More USB ports are always a plus.

After searching for and testing several monitors (Dell, LG) for photo editing, I finally landed on the BenQ PD2725U, and I'm glad that I did. It's a beautiful monitor in every way, especially for my primary purpose: photo editing. The image quality is absolutely gorgeous, and the colors appear to be as rich and true as I could ever hope. The hockey puck takes a little getting used to, but after awhile it seems easy and seamless to make adjustments, or change the color settings. The only difficulty I had was with the monitor's initial setup - BenQ shipped DisplayPort, HDMI, Thunderbolt, and USB Type A to Type B cables, but not the one I needed (USB-C) to connect my recent vintage laptop. After futzing around with the Thunderbolt cable, I finally realized that it just wasn't going to work, and went out and bought a new cable. For a $845 monitor, I was a little disappointed that it didn't include one of the most commonly used cables. Otherwise, I'm extremely pleased with the monitor.

I'm using this with a 13" MacBook Pro using the usb-c connection. I wasn't sure it would work with the Thunderbolt connection, but it does! Monitor comes with cables, usb-c and HDMI. I tried another brand but it didn't work with a MacBook . This works great. Highly recommend!

I realized that not all cables with the USB-C type connector are the same. I use this thunderbolt cable connected to my CFExpress card reader and it makes a world of difference in the download times. So, i ended up purchasing more than 1 to keep around. If you search on the data transfer rates for USB-C 3.2 vs thunderbolt, there is no comparison. The thunderbolt rate is at least 4x on paper, more in real life.

With everything having USB-C connectors, everything from Thunderbolt 3/4 to 10GB/s USB cables to simple USB charging cables I needed to make sure I hade suitable cables to go between my Thunderbolt 4 Ports, ... hat did not break the bank. I've had always had reasonable good fortune with OWC products.

More and more of my equipment purchases have USB-C cables. This lets me connect the newer and older equipment simply.

More convenient than repeatedly pulling the USB cables from one computer into another. One wish: that the LEDs were dimmer or could be turned off.

Thunderbolt cables will not work when connecting to pre-thunderbolt Macs. This was truly plug and play.
