Honest Review

This hub has been amazing since the day I bought it. When companies started reducing the number of ports on devices it began becoming more of a challenge to do multiple things at the same time. For my laptop I couldn’t transfer data from two USBs at the same time, I had to transfer from one, disconnect, connect the other and then continue the transfer as the laptop only had one USB port. With more companies following this “standardization” approach to ports on devices it’s very hard to get anything done without an inconvenience of some kind.

This hub eliminates all those problems, it plugs into the USB-C port of the computer and then you have multiple ports at your disposal. I use this hub every day, and it’s amazing, I can have up to 2 USB devices connected at the same time and can also use a dual monitor setup in 4K if I choose thanks to the two HDMI ports.

In terms of recommendation, this is one of the best hubs I have used. If you have a USB-C compatible device, this hub is a must have, if you don’t Anker has many different alternatives that could fit your needs better.
