Apple has drastically reduced the price of its USB-C adapters

The MacBook Pro introduced last week should have consequences. There were few (mine the first) critical voices with the fact that only UBS-C ports have been included in the new professional laptop from the Cupertino company. While it is true that USB-C is the future, it was not necessary to kill standards as apt as HDMI, or the fact of eliminating an SD card reader, cards on the other hand very popular in the professional photography and design environment, to those who Apple is going to force you to use a reader, and not just any reader, you will need a USB-C reader, was it time to reduce costs when purchasing adapters?

For all this, Apple has decided to lower the price of its good handful of adapters and cables with USB-C content, we imagine that with the intention of brightening the existence a little to all users of a MacBook Pro.

  • From USB-C to USB it costs € 9
  • Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) to Thunderbolt 2 now costs € 29
  • USB-C to Lightning (1 meter) now costs € 19
  • USB-C to Lightning (2 meters) now costs € 29
  • Multiport with HDMI, USB and USB-C now costs € 49
  • Multiport with VGA, USB and USB-C now costs € 49

On the other hand, the usual USB-C connection charging cables have not been discounted at all, although for this type of need we recommend whichever brand is recognized on Amazon, which will be much cheaper than those on the block.

It should be noted that Apple has not made a leap with technology when it comes to including only USB-C ports in the MacBook Pro, let's say that it has passed two peoples, creating a serious problem for many devices, easy to solve by acquiring the consequent adapters , for a "modest" price at the Apple Store, because since you start spending almost € 2.000, you are not going to scratch on cables.
