Question for my Nexus 5X phone
 
Anyone know where I can pick up micro USB to USB Type C adapter ? So I can fully utilize my existing cable.

Please kindly advise.

You're better off getting new type-C cables.

But if you're buying adapters, make sure they were approved by Benson. A lot of bad adapters and cables out there. One cable killed his Pixel C.

And here is a spreadsheet (not sure if this is maintained by Benson himself) - https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets...zbA/edit#gid=0

thanks for your prompt reply, Razor but the problem is that if I am using the new type C cable, it will not be compatible with my current car charger and my Windows Computer USB slots are not compatible for type C.

Now all I can do is to use the wall charger from Nexus 5X with the USB type C to charge the phone in the mean time.

Please advise what should I do.

I would buy two cables, one each for car and home use.

Anker USB-C to USB 3.0 Cable (3.3ft) for USB Type-C Devices Including the new MacBook, ChromeBook Pixel, Nexus 5X, Nexus 6P, Nokia N1 Tablet, OnePlus 2 and More: Amazon.ca: Cell Phones & Accessories

Anker cables are some of the best in the business and these ones in particular adhere to USB-C specifications and won't blow up your phone.

They should work with your existing car charger.
