UGREEN USB C to USB A Hub with 4 USB 3.0 for Laptop, MacBook Pro/Air, Mac mini M4, iMac, iPad Pro, Chromebook, Dell XPS, Galaxy S23, and More, 0.5FT

Works great. For the price, it provides plenty of connectivity for your usb-a devices.

If you have power-hungry USB devices but don't want a self‑powered hub with a bulky AC brick, this is the solution. Exactly what I was looking for. Works perfectly with my external disc drive, which would otherwise stop working when connected directly to my PC’s USB port due to insufficient power. By default, the hub uses bus power from the PC. However, when you connect a 5V phone charger to the auxiliary 5V-in port, it seamlessly switches to using external power. Most importantly, it correctly handles the power isolation, meaning your phone charger won't backfeed into your PC motherboard, or vice versa. Here is some experiments I did: 1. Open-circuit voltages: PC USB port = 5.17 V Phone charger = 5.04 V 2. Connected to PC only: 2a) No device on hub: hub port voltage = 5.17 V; PC current draw = 39 mA. 2b) With ~100 mA device on hub: PC current draw = 137 mA. 3. Connected to both PC and phone charger: 3a) No device on hub: hub port voltage = 4.99 V; PC current draw = 2.1 mA. 3b) Connect a device (~100 mA) to the hub: PC current draw = 2.5 mA.

Nice and compact hub, easy to slip into a pocket or small space. Also like that there's an indicator light for when power is on, that's useful. Nifty that there's two choices of power cord length, too - either the 6" or 2' length; one choice might be good for some, but not all. Appears to be solidly built and durable, so it should be long-lasting.

Unlike some of the other USB-C expanders I've got here, this one is just a plastic case, not aluminum like it looks in the picture. The plastic is a tad "creaky" when squeezed but it seems decently built and I don't really expect any problems in practice with it. And as the product description does say and other reviews point out, the USB-C power input on this is just to make it work a bit more like a "powered hub" (e.g. for hard disks and such) and does NOT charge the laptop. So this isn't a premium adapter by any means, but they didn't charge a premium either. It's working well just to give some more ports from a laptop where I'm often running out. I sometimes use laptop stands above the devices I'm programming/troubleshooting on my workbench, and so the option for a bit longer cable is great. Reports as a USB3.1 hub (vendor 0x05e3, product 0x0626) and a USB2.1 hub (same vendor, product 0x0610) and nothing else when plugged into a MBP and so far so good using it.

Perfect accessory for adding devices to the Mac Mini. It works perfectly and is sleek and esthetically pleasing to the eye. The unit is compatible with my machine and the price point is a huge plus. It has several ports for my older USB devices which is what I was looking for.

This docking station provides completely solid support for multiple monitors for your modern laptop that has one or two thunderbolt ports and maybe a legacy USB A port. Simply plug your laptop's power brick into the docking station, plug one or two monitors in via the two HDMI ports, plug the USB C cable that comes with the device into a thunderbolt port on your laptop and that's it!! Immediately my 2 4k monitors displayed glorious color!! And this gizmo costs only $37! When I compare this to Plugable, CalDigit etc. for $250 and up, that price is essentially free. In addition my experience with the pricier devices is that reliability of the monitors is sometimes not solid - occasional screen dropouts for a second or two, monitor going offline, etc. I'm still astonished that this thing just worked right out of the box. Easily worth more than 5 stars. Support for other ports is weak. It does have a 1 gb Ethernet port, but no extra USB A or C ports, no sd card reader support, and so on. I bought a USB A hub for my legacy devices and that works well. Other resellers, including Targus, sell this for about $100. I have no idea how Amazon can sell this so cheap. In summary you if you need a docking station that has a zillion ports look elsewhere. If your primary need is dual monitor support this is an amazing bargain.

My desktop workstation finally bit the dust and I was scrambling to find a way to be productive with just my laptop. Well, the Falwedi USB-C hub was just the ticket! I was able to connect my 2 older monitors (which only had DVI input) to the USB-C hub using a couple of HDMI to DVI convertors (bought separately). Also hooked up to the hub my RJ45 Ethernet cable, USB external hard drives, USB keyboard, USB mouse, and USB external card reader, external stereo speakers, and everything worked with my laptop seamlessly. The USB-C hub does have a SD card reader build in, but I also use XQD format memory cards, so had to use a separate reader. So now, I can use a dual monitor extended display, or even 3 monitors if I want to utilize my laptop's screen. For all intents and purposes, my laptop took the place of my workhorse desktop - thanks to the USB-C hub. One thing I would recommend is to put the hub on something that'll help it dissipate heat. The device will generate a fair amount of heat, but if you keep it cool it'll functions perfectly. I put mine on a piece of metal to help radiate heat and made sure there was air flow around it (passive cooling, not using a fan). Also, it should be obvious - but to power it, you'll use the USB-C power supply for your laptop into the hub - then plug the hub's USB-C output into your laptop. And of course, your laptop needs to have a USB-C port (most of them do nowadays).

Item does work but not as described. The powered only supplies power to the usb ports and not to the usb-c cord on the hub. Also, the hub ports are not all connected, if something is plugged into a usb hub port and you plug a usb drive into another hub port it will not recognize the drive on the device.

Este hub es más sencillo que un anterior que compré 6 in 1, sin embargo, la calidad sobra, carcasa de plástico, claro, el costo es más bajo, sin embargo el propósito, es muy confiable.

VERY HANDY AND AT A GOOD PRICE

This is a great product and well made. Purchased for my Mac Mini M4 that only has USB C ports. Not the quickest transfer rates but this represents functionality and value for money. Can’t go wrong with this.
