Anker USB C Hub, PowerExpand+ 7-in-1 USB C Adapter, with 4K HDMI, 60W Power Delivery, 1Gbps Ethernet, 2 USB 3.0 Ports and SD/microSD Card Readers, for MacBook Pro 2019/2018/2017/2016, Chromebook, XPS

Short Version: - Good build quality, nice packaging, carry pouch is a nice touch. - Connects wired USB mouse, wired USB keyboard, HDMI monitor and ethernet without problems - Works (for the above) with or without laptop charger plugged into it. - With charger plugged in, powers and charges Thinkpad X390 (using 65w Lenovo charger) - Nice alternative to a larger, less portable dock - Anker customer service is excellent Gripes: - I don't use the card reader, and would have another USB port or HDMI port in its place I'm using this with a Thinkpad X390. In my setup, it connects a wired USB keyboard, wired USB mouse, an HDMI monitor and my ethernet network to the laptop. I wasn't certain from the description whether the product would power the laptop as well (but wasn't too worried as I have two USB-C ports, and figured, if it came to it, I would charge the laptop via one, and connect the hub via the other. It does charge and power the laptop via the PD socket though, using the 65w Lenovo charger supplied with this Thinkpad model. Taking the charger power cable out of the hub will briefly pause operation of the connected items, but they spring back into life without problems. UPDATE - this no longer happens - I'm not sure why, but operation of the connected peripherals continues uninterrupted if the charger power cable is removed or plugged in. As ever with Anker, the product arrives nicely packed, and has a reassuring, quality feel to it. The pass through charging works nicely with Lenovo's 65w charger, and the hub works whether plugged into the pass through charging or not. I use it as a more portable laptop dock, with only one thing to unplug should I need to move away from my desk. Using this also frees up the laptop's USB ports (previously taken up by the wired keyboard and mouse). Personally, I don't use the card readers - while it's sort of nice to have them available, more USB or HDMI capability would have been better, I think. In all, an excellent product.

Bought this thing for my surface pro 7 and the thing is just super handy for these ultra-portable laptops with no darn ports. I have not used every single port at the same time but they do work individually. The main use was for connecting to an external monitor whilst charging at the same time through PD with a 60w USB-C charger. Has lived in my bag for over 2 years and has no sign of falling apart or failing. Also have used it with my Macbook air (2020) and considering that has no USB - A ports has been nice as a sort of light docking solution. Also worked on my Samsung note 9 and iPad mini. Do wish the cable was slightly longer so it could be further away from my laptop or that it could do 4k 60 but small gripes. Product is pretty much perfect.

Initial impressions whilst waiting for a laptop delivery is that aesthetically this hub is built to a quality standard compared to most of the other options available. The box and presentation is neat. The hub is a shade of dark grey, it's surprisingly small with just the right amount of weight and balance for its size, casing feels like a type of composite material although the description suggests aluminium, still it feels like decent quality. All ports have a nice tight and clicky feel so no fear of anything falling out or working their way loose. The dual USB 3.0 ports do however leave enough space for slight lateral movement once a cable is inserted that is typical of most devices with type A ports but I would have preferred a tighter contact. The attached unbraided cable is long and flexible enough to be placed next to a laptop with enough clearance for all connections. It is supplied with a grey carry pouch to house the hub along with a separate pocket for the cable which I thought was a nice added touch. For longevity will need to follow up but for now there are two minor gripes: no feet on the bottom so it will be susceptible to scratches and the printed Anker logo on top may wear with time. As for operational prowess, this is to be confirmed once I'm in possession of the laptop for which this was purchased. Based on its build quality however I'm cautiously optimistic. For size comparison see picture of it next to a can of coke and a standard SSD.

The Anker PowerExpand+ 7-in-1 USB-C PD Ethernet Hub is well built the metal outer case make the product feel premium which you get with all Anker products, as well as great value, you also do not need to have a power adapter attached to the hub to use it, the device is light compact allowing to be very portable allow you to take it with you, and comes with a nice travel pouch, excellent for using on the tv in your hotel room, or showing a presentation and need to connect projector or tv, the device is also good for productivity as in my case I use if with an iPad Pro and it allow me to connect all my external devices such as a USB microphone, external storage devices with ease. If you are looking for a USB-C Hub In my opinion you cannot go wrong with the Anker PowerExpand+ 7-in-1 USB-C PD Ethernet Hub, great value, great quality, with excellent flexibility on functionality a well worth purchase.

The first thing I noticed opening this product was the quality- it’s a beautifully made product, it’s very aesthetically pleasing and feels solid. It is a little bigger and heavier than i expected but with the amount of ports it is to be expected. Works exactly as you would expect, it is fast and also versatile with such a selection of ports. I would highly recommend this product from my personal experience. I was unsure about paying the price at first, but you really get what you pay for. The quality is unmatched by similar other products.

Llevo ya unos meses usándolo todos los días y va genial! No puedo poner ninguna pega, lo volvería a comprar sin duda

Currently using the ethernet port, HDMI, and USB C ports and it works well!

Cinque stelle piene. Uso questo prodotto Anker tutti i giorni da più di tre anni e continua a funzionare come il primo giorno. Le porte non hanno mai dato segni di cedimento. La scocca è ancora perfetta: niente graffi evidenti, niente plastiche che si staccano. Lo infilo e sfilo dallo zaino di continuo, lo porto in viaggio, e non ha mai fatto una piega. In sintesi: compatto, costruito bene, affidabile nel tempo. Se cercate un hub che “lo compri una volta e te lo dimentichi”, questo è quello giusto.

Original product and reasonable price
