This drive feels very well made, and comes with a good cable. I connected it to the fastest USB C port on my desktop (10Gbps) and ran some speed tests. It gave over 1000 MB/s . I expect it would give the over 2000 MB/s when connected to the newer high speed C ports on newer computers. I am very happy with its performance on my system.

This charger works well for my phone and my tablet. It is extremely compact, as can be seen in the photos with a quarter on it. It comes with an excellent cable that can easily deal with the full 65 W that this charger is capable of providing. The charger and the cable are very well made and solid - they should each last for a long time. This is a very good buy.

I was looking for a secondary monitor to use with my desktop pc that was small enough to fit into the small space available, with enough resolution to make the control windows for photo and video editing readable. The specifications for this monitor looked like a good fit, and the price met my restricted budget.

The description described it to be in excellent condition. It arrived nicely boxed, with the monitor itself completely enclosed in a thick bubble envelope protecting it on all sides. Upon carefully examining the monitor it was clearly in excellent condition, with no cosmetic defects anywhere.

The monitor came with three cables: a short, thick USB C to USB C cable meant to carry video signals, a longer HDMI to mini HDMI cable that I needed for my desktop computer, and a longer USB C to USB A cable to carry power from my desktop computer to the monitor. I checked the USB C to USB C cable using a new gaming laptop I bought for Christmas and verified that it worked just fine.

When connected to my desktop computer, I found that the monitor completely satisfied all my needs. The resolution and crispness were great. The color accuracy was fine as well. I tried viewing some videos on it, and it performed well. It has speakers and they were low volume and tinny, but I had no need for them. I found no dead pixels in the display. It truly was in excellent condition.

This monitor is great at an extraordinary price! I highly recommend it.
