Power Expand Direct 7-in-2 USB C Hub Adapter with Thunderbolt 3 USB C Port (100W Power Delivery), 4K HDMI Port, USB C and USB A 3.0 Data Ports, SD and microSD Card Reader for MacBook (Grey)

Bought 3 years earlier, reviewing now. Using it regularly with MacBook Air M1. Product is very good

This is by far one of the best docks. Is it expensive? You bet it is. Is it good? Absolutely. It is fully metallic which just screams sturdiness. Its a 7 in 2 dock, so there are no cables that keep dangling. It becomes a part of your MacBook. I have the M1 MBA. Pros: 1. As for the ports all are working. 2. So with the USB 3.0 port, my SATA SSD gave a read speed of 350ish MBPS and a write of 250-280 MBPS. The second USB 3 port gives a bit more speed. I dont know why. I could attach my HDD and my USB wireless mouse and it works perfectly. 3. The HDMI supports 4k30, so there's that, I usually use a 1080p 75HZ monitor and it works perfectly. 4. There are 2 type C ports, one is a TB3 one, it is used for charging and can be used to connect to a USB C display. The other port is a regular type C port and supports a data transfer of 5GBPS (theoretically). I didn't have type c SSDs to test so cant tell you but since its Anker, I trust that it will work. Also this supports Pass-through charging, so if you use a 30W adapter (like my MBA), it will display as 30W and will charge at 30W 5. The SD cards slots work as expected, my SD cards advertised speed is 95MBPS read. I got 85MBPS read and 77MBPS write. As for the microSD, the advertised speed of my card is 48MBPS read, gives 45MBPS read and 35ish write. 6. As for stress testing, I used all ports at once and they work as expected. CONS: 1. My mouse lags sometimes but that's not a dock issue tbh, that's the unifying connector from Logitech, it doesn't play well with docks. 2. There are 2 Type C ports and only one is used for charging. This is a bummer as what if I connect my NVME SSD to the TB3 port, I wont be able to charge my mac. 3. I wish it had 4k60, even the Cable creation one provides 4k60. As for heating, It gets warm when a lot of action is happening i.e. if I connect all my devices, it will get warm but this is expected, it is already mentioned in the booklet as well as the device itself. Other than that, there are no issues with them. They give a 18 month warranty, which is just great. Yes, I spoke to customer service and they confirmed it. If the seller is AnkerDirectIN, it will have a warranty. Also it is a pick and drop warranty, so if this breaks, they will send someone to pick it up and they will deliver you a new piece. Stop buying those cheap docks. If you have a mac, invest in something good. All cheap docks are the same and most of them look the same because they are from the same manufacturer. So, I would recommend this dock if the cons aren't an issue for you. PS- I did return it eventually as I needed 2 charging ports. And I forgot to click pictures, so there are none. Cheers.

I was very confused while buying a USB hub for my Macbook Air M1. Reviews in amazon and other websites are really confusing. I have watched lot of youtube reviews and finally concluded to buy this hub. Pros : 1. Light weight 2. Port works very well. Tested thunderbolt, usb ports and hdmi ports. 3. No lag when using the logitech keyboard and mouse. 4. HDMI output is very clear. 5. Little expensive but I got for 4K on offer. 6. Don't take risks with cheaper USB's. 7. Delivered in 3 days. 8. This hub comes with a pouch. Cons: 1. Color looks little odd on my Rose Gold M1 Macbook 2. When you use external cover for Macbook Air, then it has to be cut in shape.

My journey begins with ANKER when i started using Apple , ANKER joined the family thoughtlessly with its tremendous working performance and build quality. There is no other product brand that match ANKER when it comes to quality and compatibility with best course of action. There are many competitive brands in the market but it suits best for all my needs.

Definitely worth it. Its too shame that this brand has stopped producing it.

It is a good product. I got it for 3799, and I found it to be a total value for money in that. But it sometimes gets heated and can affect performance when used for a period. I would suggest you to go for it if you don’t have any heavy workload.

Great product from Anker, comes with Pouch to carry. Tried SD Card slot & HDMI Ports for more than 2 Hours, heating problem not yet found. Must have for M1 MacBook users.

Good build quality. Feels sturdy. Inside part of ports looks not upto the Macbook ports. But can’t complain. It works. One thing to think about is the design. When we pull out cables, the adapter comes out of its ports connected, so you have to hold it to pull out connected devices or cables. I don’t think it is an issue with this device but a problem with the design

Excellent quality & very much useful for MacBook Air M3. HDMI port, 2 USB, USB C ports. Every MacBook Air users must have product.

ok

The Anker USB C Hub for MacBook is very useful. It gives you seven ports from just two USB-C connections. It works well with Thunderbolt 3 and 100W charging, so it’s fast and efficient. The hub is well-made and looks good with the MacBook. It’s a great value and I highly recommend it!

This Anker USB dock is a perfect solution for your MacBook. It has only Pros. They are 1. It is very lightweight yet sturdy and connects perfectly and seamlessly. 2. It comes with a very small travel pouch which is very useful too. 3. It has all the required ports from HDMI to Type C to Type A, SD card reader everything so you need not buy anything except this. 4. It also supports Power Delivery charging through USB C port, which is a big Pro. You don't need to carry magsafe charger all the time, just carry your Type C charger or Powerbank and it will work fine. 5. YOU MUST BUY THIS ONE if you are a MacBook user. This is the best accessory you can ever find. Only Con is that it is on a slightly expensive side but believe me, you have to spend few bucks for quality and reliability.
