Update: Looking for an affordable USB Type-C adapter dongle that’s more about convenience than versatility? Get your quick fix at spot number 3!

What the port Gods giveth, they taketh away – so the saying goes. USB-C is the newest port on the block having found a way into everything from Apple’s 12-inch MacBook to Dell’s XPS 12 and even gaming desktops and smartphones.

It’s a jack of all trades that rolls power, output and connectivity into a single cable; so when you find out that the next version of your favorite laptop now comes with two ports, rather than five, you’ll probably find that USB-C has joined the party.

The new port has been around for a short while now, allowing a number of compatible accessories to creep onto the market. From massive external hard drives to mini storage thumbdrives, portable monitors to hubs, there’s a growing collection of neat accessories that are a perfect fit for your new USB-C machine. Here we round up the best of them.
