Review: It works as advertised, but beware... - I bought this because the rear USB C port on my motherboard wasn't working. I was able to utilize the front USB C with this and it works. The product in question is good and works as advertised, however, your motherboard may not offer all features. Sadly, my motherboard (aorus gaming 7 OP) did not support quick charge (even though the product page advertised mobile device charging). The C port actually charged slower than the Type-A USB 3.0 ports, weird... but at least I have an extra port, that's ok. In short, make sure your motherboard supports quick charge before you decide to get this, IF that's what you're trying to do.
Review: Works great, bracket different than pictured - Installed easily, seems to work as expected so far. If I could subtract 1/2 star it'd be due to the bracket being slightly different than pictured (USB-C connector is centered on bracket, instead of offset like shown in all of their photos). I would have preferred the offset bracket, but would have purchased this item either way, so it wasn't worth knocking off a full star. But hopefully this review helps in case the bracket is a deal breaker for someone else.
