UGREEN US378 USB-C to USB-A OTG Cable is in stock at Mascom International, priced at KSh 700, brand new and sealed. It is a short 0.15m lead with a USB-C plug on one end and a full-size USB-A socket on the other, rated at 5Gbps under USB 3.0. OTG, short for On-The-Go, lets a phone or tablet act like a computer and read a flash drive or run a keyboard. The UGREEN US378 USB-C to USB-A OTG Cable has a nylon braided jacket and aluminium alloy connector shells, and it is ready at our Old Mutual Building store on Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD.
Designed for anyone moving files between old and new gadgets, the UGREEN US378 USB-C to USB-A OTG Cable bridges a gap most Kenyan offices still have. New laptops and phones carry USB-C ports, while flash drives, printers, mice and keyboards still use the older rectangular USB-A plug. Sales teams copying presentations from a client's flash drive, estate agents showing property photos on a tablet, and students at Kenyatta University printing assignments all run into it. The UGREEN US378 USB-C to USB-A OTG Cable connects that older gadget to the new port in seconds, with no app and no Wi-Fi needed.
Where most Nairobi electronics shops sell thin, unbranded OTG leads that fray within weeks, Mascom International stocks the UGREEN US378 USB-C to USB-A OTG Cable with a braided jacket and metal shells built for daily bending. Its 5Gbps rating means a large file copies in a fraction of the time a USB 2.0 OTG lead takes. Buyers throughout Kenya report keeping one in a laptop bag as a permanent fix for USB-A gadgets. Walk into our Kimathi Street store to test the UGREEN US378 USB-C to USB-A OTG Cable with your own phone and drive, or order it for pay-on-arrival delivery.
Common Questions About the UGREEN US378 USB-C to USB-A OTG Cable
What is the UGREEN US378 USB-C to USB-A OTG Cable 0.15m price in Kenya?
The UGREEN US378 USB-C to USB-A OTG Cable 0.15m sells for KSh 700, brand new and sealed, at Mascom International in Nairobi CBD. The price covers a 6-month warranty against manufacturing defects and pay-on-arrival delivery anywhere in Kenya. It is KSh 100 more than the UGREEN US270 USB-C to USB-A OTG Adapter at KSh 600, and KSh 1,100 less than the UGREEN US372 USB-C Extension Cable at KSh 1,800, which serves USB-C gadgets instead of USB-A ones.
Should I pick the UGREEN US378 USB-C to USB-A OTG Cable or the UGREEN US270 USB-C to USB-A OTG Adapter?
Both connect USB-A gadgets to a USB-C port at the same 5Gbps, so the choice is about shape, not speed. The UGREEN US378 USB-C to USB-A OTG Cable puts 15cm of flexible braided lead between port and gadget, so a heavy drive or a phone in a thick case does not strain the port. The UGREEN US270 USB-C to USB-A OTG Adapter is a rigid plug, smaller, KSh 100 cheaper and kept on a keychain strap. Choose the cable for desk use and bulky drives; choose the adapter for pocket carry.
Can the UGREEN US378 USB-C to USB-A OTG Cable connect a flash drive to my phone?
Yes, the UGREEN US378 USB-C to USB-A OTG Cable connects a USB flash drive to any Android phone or tablet that supports OTG, which covers most models sold in Kenya. Once connected, the drive appears in your phone's Files app, where you can copy photos, PDFs and videos. Drives formatted as FAT32 or exFAT read on almost every phone; NTFS drives may need a free app. USB-C iPhones and iPads also read flash drives through the Files app.
Is the UGREEN US378 USB-C to USB-A OTG Cable useful for M-Pesa agents and small shops?
Yes, the UGREEN US378 USB-C to USB-A OTG Cable lets a small business connect a USB keyboard, barcode scanner or receipt printer to an Android phone or tablet. M-Pesa agents and shop owners using a tablet for Lipa na M-Pesa records or stock sheets type far faster on a real keyboard. Some printers and scanners need their own Android app, so check that first. The braided jacket also holds up better than a plain rubber lead in a busy shop where the cable is bent dozens of times a day.
How fast does the UGREEN US378 USB-C to USB-A OTG Cable transfer files?
The UGREEN US378 USB-C to USB-A OTG Cable is rated at 5Gbps, the USB 3.0 standard, also sold as USB 3.2 Gen 1. That is about ten times the 480Mbps ceiling of USB 2.0 OTG leads. Real speed depends on the slowest part: a USB 2.0 flash drive or a phone with a USB 2.0 port will copy at USB 2.0 speed. Paired with a USB 3.0 drive and a laptop that supports it, a folder of lecture videos or site photos copies in a fraction of the time.
Who should buy the UGREEN US378 USB-C to USB-A OTG Cable, and who should skip it?
Buy the UGREEN US378 USB-C to USB-A OTG Cable if you use USB-A drives, mice, keyboards or card readers with a USB-C phone, tablet or laptop, especially at a desk. Doctors moving scan files, accountants handling client flash drives and teachers sharing slides all fit. Skip it if every gadget you own already uses USB-C; the UGREEN US372 USB-C Extension Cable suits that setup. Skip it if you want the smallest possible connector to carry daily, where the UGREEN US270 USB-C to USB-A OTG Adapter fits better.
Will the UGREEN US378 USB-C to USB-A OTG Cable survive dust and daily commuting?
The UGREEN US378 USB-C to USB-A OTG Cable uses a nylon braided jacket and aluminium alloy shells, which resist fraying and cracking better than plain plastic leads. That matters on daily matatu and boda boda commutes where a bag gets squeezed and the cable gets bent. In dusty towns such as Nakuru or around construction sites, blow out the USB-A socket now and then, since packed dust can stop a drive from seating fully. Store it coiled loosely rather than folded tight at the plug.
Does the UGREEN US378 USB-C to USB-A OTG Cable work with laptops and MacBooks?
Yes, the UGREEN US378 USB-C to USB-A OTG Cable works with Windows laptops, MacBook models and Chromebooks that have USB-C ports. Many newer slim laptops have dropped USB-A entirely, so this cable brings back one full-size port for a mouse, flash drive or external hard drive. A large portable hard drive that draws more power may need a powered hub instead. Bring your laptop to Kimathi Street and we will confirm it works with your gadget before you pay.
Technical Specifications
Core Function and Performance
- USB-C male to USB-A female — the USB-C plug fits your phone, tablet or laptop, while the socket takes standard USB gadgets.
- 5Gbps USB 3.0 data rate — about ten times faster than USB 2.0, cutting the wait on large photo or video folders.
- OTG support — On-The-Go lets a phone or tablet act as host, so it reads drives and runs keyboards directly.
- 0.15m length — about 15 centimetres, long enough to let a drive lie flat on the desk beside the phone.
- No driver or app needed for most gadgets — flash drives, mice and keyboards work as soon as they are plugged in.
Compatibility
- Android phones and tablets with OTG — covers most Samsung, Tecno, Infinix, Oppo, Redmi and Vivo models with USB-C ports.
- USB-C iPhone and iPad models — flash drives open in the Files app for moving photos and documents without a computer.
- Windows laptops, MacBook models and Chromebooks — restores a full-size USB port on slim laptops that ship with USB-C only.
- Works with flash drives, card readers, mice, keyboards and game controllers — anything that uses a standard rectangular USB plug.
- Speed follows the slowest link — a USB 2.0 drive or phone port sets the ceiling, not the cable.
Build and Durability
- Nylon braided jacket — woven fibre outer layer that resists fraying, kinks and cuts better than plain rubber cables in daily use.
- Aluminium alloy connector shells — metal housings protect the plug and socket from cracking when the cable is dropped or bent.
- Short, flexible lead — absorbs the weight of a hanging drive, so the phone or laptop port takes less strain.
- Black finish — keeps scuffs and grime less visible after months of travel in a bag.
- Reversible USB-C plug — fits either way up, so there is no fumbling at the side of a phone or laptop.
Inclusions and Support
- One UGREEN US378 USB-C to USB-A OTG Cable in sealed UGREEN retail packaging.
- No flash drive, hub or charger included — the cable is a connector only, and works with gadgets you already own.
- 6-month Mascom International warranty — covers manufacturing defects in data transfer and connection under normal use.
- About KSh 4 per day of warranty cover — KSh 700 spread across the roughly 182 days of the 6-month term.
- In-store testing on Kimathi Street — try the cable with your own phone and flash drive before you pay.
