Over the next couple of years, USB-C will become the dominant charging cable for phones, tablets, and even laptops, but there have been a few bumps in the road.

Well-made adapters that let you connect to your older peripherals have been few and far between, and the good ones tend to cost a small fortune.

This is particularly frustrating if you own a new MacBook or MacBook Pro, since USB-C is the only port Apple built into them. Thankfully AmazonBasics, Amazon's house brand for tech products, now has a handful of solutions to this problem.

You can see all of the new adapters here, but we've called out the most useful ones below. Whether you're connecting to an external display, your favorite accessories, or want to use a wired internet connection, you can find what you need here.
