5.1k resistor version works great for replacing USB-A plug
This worked great for my use case, which was replacing the USB-A end of my Garmin Zumo XT mount cable with USB-C. The 5.1k resistor is necessary to signal to the USB-PD (power delivery) charger that this is a "dumb" USB device and to only provide 5 volts. If that resistor isn't there, the charger will not provide any power.Of course, if you're replacing a USB-C plug on a cable you intend to use with an actual USB-C device, you'll want to use the version without the resistor, so that the charger and device negotiate the proper voltage/current for that device using the USB-PD standard.

Housing for the connector doesn’t work but the connector does.
As far as the connector and electronics go it works. Had to figure out the correct order for the wires. My kid broke her usbc gaming mouse connector and I chose this to replace it. The wires were white, yellow, green, blue. Different than what I found online so I took apart the old connector to get that correct order. The plastic housing for this is complete crap. It doesn’t lock together and didn’t stay in place so the plug got pushed in and didn’t go into the computer. I ended up trying super glue but it didn’t stick to the plug. So I used instamorph moldable plastic to create a housing. Works great.

They do the job, housing is garbage
They work, the housing isn't held together so I have to add a bit of glue. Keep in mind these will not work for charging.

Great for my odd ball use.
I have some ultra small computers that have no power lights, so cannot tell if on or off. I wired a simple LED to these and plugged into an unused USB-C port so i can tell if powered on or off. perfect for my project.

Great little connectors.
Bought these a long time ago. Finally got around to use one on a long 6 foot cloth braided cable I really liked, that had the the C end damaged. Had to expand the little rear rubber boot with a reamer and a hot gun so that it would fit over the cloth sleeving, and also enlarge the hole where the cable and the boot passed through. As some suggested on previous reviews I used a few drops of thin super glue to adhere the circuit board sleeve to the outer casing. I did screw up by shorting the ground with the data + because the insulation on the wires for the cable I used melted very easily, but since this cable is only used to charge non-smart devices it'll be fine.

Housing is useless. Comes apart when plugged in.
On top of that, this is one of the most miserable connectors I've ever had to solder. Two contacts are through-hole (although I suppose you don't have to push the wires through), and the other two are surface mount. There's nothing holding the wires to the board besides the solder itself since the housing slides apart when you insert the plug.

Tiny contacts, no strain relief, no provision to attach housing
I just needed laptop charger fix, typically 3-4 wires, 1 line in, 1 gnd and on or two to p05 and p06 respectively. Wishing there was a solution with a easy attachment for the 4 wires, could make em nice and big! Used hot glue and just filled the housing, hoped it would act as strain relief as well as prevent shorts, etc. No Bueno, lasted about a week
