As the title of this review states, these are what they are. There were no surprises when I opened my Amazon package. The cables look just as pictured, but the larger female USB port is very tight on all three that I purchased. Had to really work to get the USB item I was attempting to use out of it.What I'd purchased these cables for was to use them to "add" a remote to my Fire Stick. The Fire Stick did power from this cable, but it would not read/detect/allow the use of a use remote or keyboard. I'd purchase these after following a link in a youtube video, however it didn't work at all for that application. These were very cheap, so I'll keep them hoping I can find a use for them at a later time.***UPDATE***After the most recent Fire Stick firmware update (from Amazon), these cables work PERFECTLY to add a remote with a keyboard. I added a Minix A2 Air Mouse Remote (with keyboard) and it works GREAT!!!.
