Could not fit these on my PC as not enough space on the adaptor on the bend. Giving it 5 stars as looks like it is well made but just not the right size for my application.
These are well-made tough little converters to change the direction of your USB A sockets by 90 degrees. They allow you to have peripherals like mice to extend straight towards you out of a laptop so as to reduce bends in the cable or allow you to work in a tight space where having the cable stick out perpendicular to the computer is undesirable for any reason. They work very well and have a good snug fit.
I got these to put at the rear of my desktop PC so as to make inserting USB cables a little easier when reaching around into an awkward position with poor visibility. I found that I could only use one at a time in the right-most end socket of my desktop PC because if I fitted one anywhere else then it would cover up any adjacent USB ports.
It’s with noting that both devices have the same directionality, so do a careful check to ensure they match the orientation of your USB sockets. For example, they will both point forwards if fitted to the right side of a laptop as per the advertising photo, but they may both instead point backwards if your laptop has USB ports on the left hand side. My laptop has vertical USB ports on the left which means that these devices point upwards so aren’t really much use in that situation.
Simple item: simple review! These USB 3.0 right angle adaptors, male & female, do what they are meant to do, & do it perfectly well. One of the 2 was no sooner out of the packet than it was in service, allowing me to tuck a Bluetooth transmitter around the back of my TV, instead of it sticking out at the side, ugly & liable to damage.
The one thing of note for these is, unlike others available, these are an identical pair, not opposites with a left and right version. Handy if you want them pointing the same direction for vertically paired USB slots || but not if you have horizontally aligned slots —
