    Awesome product.

    Verified BuyerReviewed by - May 4, 2019

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This type-C Docking station is perfect for my MacBook Air retina 2018. A portable device that has all you need to access all your sim cards. I highly recommend this product and for the price it a great buy and an excellent gadget to have two thumbs up!

    Great solution for more components

    Verified BuyerReviewed by - March 19, 2020

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This unit is nice and small to add to any setup. I just needed a few more USB and HDMI connections, and this did the trick. The only down side I had was the HDMI from one of my monitors was not recognized. After swapping things around to have that monitor directly to the laptop, it worked alright. This DOES work for charging items! It's a plus I wasn't expecting.

    Poor quality, not durable

    Verified BuyerReviewed by - October 29, 2020

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product has very poor quality: 1. Used ~0.5 year and it starts to drop HDMI video signals. Seems to be internal contact issues. 2. Body gets hot after period of use, and draining the Mac battery 3. Poor USB connection speed. When multiple USB/MircoSD plugged in, mouse or keyboard strokes start to lag. Feels that this manufacturer lacks technical capabilities in coming up with rebust product. Please avoid this brand!

    Great Hub for MacBook Pro

    Verified BuyerReviewed by - July 10, 2019

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Had initial reservations about USB-C hubs because the first few I purchased didn't want to work with the MacBook Pro that was recently purchased. I saw this one and decided to give it another shot and this one worked like a charm. It is used for a weekly church presentation that requires an HDMI connection to properly project on three screens and has to be functioning to support the service.

    Compact, convenient, works well

    Verified BuyerReviewed by - August 16, 2019

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My very thin laptop has limited ports; only one USB port. This adds two much-needed USB ports and standard SD card input, as well as an HDMI port. My only wish is for an ethernet hub. I wonder if this station will also work with my thunderbolt 3 port since it fits perfectly - but I'm afraid to experiment! I couldn't find documentation to answer that question.

    Works for using my MacBook Air with HDMI monitor

    Verified BuyerReviewed by - September 12, 2020

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It serves the primary purpose of allowing me to use my MacBook Air (2019) with an HDMI monitor. My only (minor) issue is that when trying to use a USB-connected mouse and keyboard, there was significant lag when the USB dongle was attached to this hub. Since I'll be using this with bluetooth-connected peripherals, this won’t be a major problem for me.

    Great Adapter

    Verified BuyerReviewed by - March 19, 2020

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought this for my Mac Book Pro. It performs well for my needs. The best part of it all was the price, I was able to obtain this item when there was a sell going. After a year of using this item I have no complaints, still working as the first day I purchased it. Really enjoy the fact that it has the basic adapters that I need for my daily task.

    Affordable and gets the job done!

    Verified BuyerReviewed by - August 25, 2020

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was struggling to find a dock that would work with my MacBook Pro, until I came across this one. It's affordable, has a variety of my most commonly used ports, and it doesn't sit flush against my device so I can use it despite having a clear case on my MacBook. The color is almost identical to my space gray laptop too and that's always a bonus!

    Okay station, needs an option to charge!

    Verified BuyerReviewed by - September 16, 2019

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very nice docking station. I use this with my Note 9, and it works great! If it had an option to charge my phone, or even a USB C to plug in a charger to do so, I would give it a five star rating. Dex can really drain your battery, but if you just need a quick plug and play application and do not intend use for long this is a great option.

    Amazing USB-C Dock

    Verified BuyerReviewed by - June 19, 2020

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Looked a little too expensive, but once it arrived the price was justified because the build quality is SPECTACULAR. When handling it feels great and also looks sleek. It's also small enough to mount on the back of my laptop, the SD and Micro SD ports are also a plus. Overall this is a satisfying product and would definitely recommend it.
