Hub Adapter, 5-in-1 USB C Adapter with 4K USB C to HDMI, Ethernet Port, 3 USB 3.0 Ports, for MacBook Pro, iPad Pro, XPS, Pixelbook, and More

Very useful to connect a MacBook Air to Ethernet, printer, external drive, full-size keyboard and a monitor. Just a perfect design with exactly the ports I needed and from Anker whose products I have bought before and trusted. As another reviewer noted, the USB cable could be a little longer but that said, if I tidied my desk it would work just fine. No problems at all in use so very happy.

Key point over any other dock/adapter I have tried is that in addition to other positives on usage and quality, it is detected at boot so I can boot up linux from an external SSD - which frees up limited on-board connections. I have yet to see this with any other dock/adapter. Using this on HP 15-df0002na. Had nothing but trouble with both HP and Lenovo docks - either intermittently having hardware ID not recognised (Lenovo C116) and when that does work, disappears after sleep. On HP Elite USB-C (TPA-B01) screen resolution cannot get to 4K, regularly not even detected in OS/Device Manager. This Anker (A83380A1) works straight out of the box. Never had an issue with it and is rock solid stable. Sure, it doesn't put out 4K@60Hz, but then it clearly says it doesn't. I takes up one port and doesn't require separate power. It would be nice if it did passthrough power, but at this price point (I paid £30) it's money well spent, so much so that I'm ordering another as a spare.

This seems quite well-made as well as light, and the plug fits snugly in the USB-C/TB3 socket which is important (some of the cheaper ones are loose, and things cut out if you knock the cable - not on this one, so far anyway). I've been using it with a DJ controller and USB input from a mixing desk, which can be quite fussy, and both are working fine, so am impressed so far (a couple of weeks of daily use). It will get moved around and plugged and unplugged a good deal during its life, so hopefully I'll come back and post an update as to how well is survives that. The only slight frustration is the short cable from the hub to the computer (laptop on high stand) - but that's one reason it's inexpensive; you have to pay quite a lot more for a decent one with a longer removable cable. It's OK, however, as I've just strapped it to the underside of the stand with velcro strips, since it's light, and long enough to do this without obscuring the sockets :) UPDATE: In heavy use and doing the business - impressed enough that I've ordered a second one, to have one in each work location and not need to always remember to bring it with me (!!) - the price has unaccountably gone up quite a lot, but it's still good value, and I'm impressed with everything Anker I've bought so far, so am starting to treat them as a 'trusted brand' :)

Very good product as most Anker things are. Not good if you need (for some reason) to have all the USB connections under the sun. Ethernet connection didn't work that well - most likely the network but Anker do reference that it can happen - there is their 18 mth warranty. Note that it doesn't charge things via it and it does get warm. Not worryingly "hot" . p.s. the USB C connector is snug so just take a little time to connect it carefully to a laptop etc. Better than a loose connection that keeps dropping out.

This is godly, has everything + HDMI where you can extend desktop not just duplicate! External monitor can go up to 1080 75hz which runs perfectly. I think it effect the auto start of a monitor, I have to press the on button of the monitor instead of pressing space bar for example. Ethernet port works perfectly, and so do the USBs. I am careful when taking it with me, the USB-c is sturdy, I connect and disconnect every day and hasn’t had any visible wear and tear yet. Overall great product.

Good build quality and a handy thing to have with your laptop for connectivity

Brilliant piece of kit and lovely quality, all the ports have very snug quality connections on, unit is full metal body. All ports work with no need to install any drivers (unable to install anything without an admin password on my work laptop) No speed difference from the ethernet port using the hub vs straight into ethernet port on laptop (have not tested if speeds drop when ethernet and USB usage is high - only use it for plugging in mouse and keyboard) Unit does get quite warm to the touch but doesnt seem to affect it in any way Comes with a nice branded carry pouch

I use this as a docking solution for a couple of laptops with USB-C ports. It connects keyboard, mouse, speakers and a 24" HD monitor (using HDMI). It's worked perfectly with both laptops and is much easier than having to connect the USB devices and HDMI separately. It doesn't have power pass-through, but since one laptop needs 130W, this was never going to be possible, so I didn't consider the versions with power pass-through. The ethernet port is not used in my case, and if you have multiple monitors you'll need something else with displayport outputs. It's slim and light, so you could easily carry it in a bag if you needed to, and gets slightly warm if you use it all day, which I frequently do. Highly recommended if you need a docking solution for a single screen and don't need (or can't use) power pass-through.

Fantastic USB C hub. Compared with other's at a simlar price this device has an awesome build quality - up there with hubs that are twice the price. Would definitley reccomend this product.

Compact dongle with a nice braided cord. Great build quality and I love that the cord lets me move the dongle around so it's perfectly positioned. Great convenience and gives me confidence that it wont damage my laptop. Everything works when I plug it into the dongle. It gives me more functionality on my laptop when I need it. Something very necessary for any macbook user because so many things still need the old USB plugs. It's also great to have an ethernet port for uploading and downloading files.

Funciona ok

The build quality is very good and worth for the money

Love it. A little concerned on all those negative reviews but if it works on PixelBook has to work on ASUS FLIP......right. Of course . Tentatively plugged in in right hand port on flip, light comes on. Yeah. Acid test 1 USB port plug in my AB switch, switchover......YEAH, keyboard and mouse all happy. The big test and one it was really purchased for ETHERNET. Plug in cable lights are lit. Check status and voila ethernet connected, run Ookla , up and download speeds no problem....phew last one HDMI. Have 4K monitor instant wallpaper and apps bar but all apps opened on flip screen. Once closed flip all screens now on 4K monitor, will need to look into that to see if can use both screens but for me not required. Excellent little 'dock' would agree gets a little heated but not so much. A quality feel, tiny package with 3x USB, HDMI and Ethernet it is literally a no brainer. Well done Anker another great product.
