I think to allow people to have easy access to what are believed to be real reviews of USB-C things so they can find valid working things.

So much of the junk coming out of China is just that junk. Either mislabeled or poorly made and just don't work to the required specifications.

Benson Leung of Google has taken a personal interest in this, and regularly buys most if not all USB-C things listed on Amazon, then makes full reviews about the product with regards to how well it works to the USB-C spec.

Benson has found and made reviews about several devices that would blow up your personal device if you used it in a specific, though valid, way.

With that detail, the link above makes more sense.

next time, post that with the link.

Amazon or Google can give me a list of known items. That this list gives a list of known working by a reputable source makes the difference. lacking that, I would never bother to look at it.

sifting through results takes longer than searching tags here.
