Update - 5 stars forever!

Update: 09/09/2017 - Five stars! The support service contacted me and offered to send another hub. Of course I said yes. Got a new one today and tested it extensively. All ports work, switches work, lights work and the video transfer rates to and from each port (compared to this Wavlink 3.0 hub with a similar hub from Sabrent) were definitely 3.0, very fast transfers in every direction. The Wavlink and Sabrent hubs are very similar except for one. Wavlink has better port alignment - stacked…

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • There are disadvantages

4-port USB 3.0 hub with power options. I bought this because I've been designing hardware lately and a power switch is incredibly useful - I've used Dupont plugs/sockets before to connect the onboard buttons and it's been good, but this is better. There is a deduction of 1 point because of the orientation of the USB slots and because the device is not crooked and because the buttons are inconspicuous and uncomfortable to press - they are spongy. When I buy a 3D printer, I will design my own…

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Minor issues

Works best with USB hubs

Nice and easy to use item. Only downside: the connection cable is a bit short, which can be an issue if you want to plug it into a wall adapter (we ended up using a spare USB extension cable). Otherwise a great article.

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • Security

This does not support more than 1 device without an external power supply

I bought this hub to connect 4 low power monitors to my laptop via USB 3.0 -> HDMI adapter cables. Unfortunately, the hub cannot power more than 1 device at a time without an external power supply (which does not come with the hub). Now I have to order a $13 power adapter that comes bundled with the hub, which added to my overall cost (not happy with that extra cost, nor the extra wait for the adapter to ship). If I had known that the adapter costs extra and has to be purchased in advance, I

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • Some small things

Everything works on an Android phone

I didn't use a Macbook in this test I was looking for a Type-C hub to use as an HDMI output for my Android phone (LG V30 ) to read microSD /SD cards from my Sony camera. SD readers are basic but I've never had a good experience with the HDMI part before this product. One video randomly goes black, the other has no sound over HDMI, won't charge while in use, etc. This is the first one I've tried where everything works as I expected! The box contains a quick start guide and the device itself. and

Pros
  • There's something to it
Cons
  • It bothers me

The chipset can cause problems on some devices.

I should probably get away from these switches. That's good, but there are conflicts with some of my devices. The BD burner doesn't work properly unless I plug this 3.0 into a 2.0 port o_O Well that defeats the purpose of USB 3.0

Pros
  • Normal price
Cons
  • Approximately

My computer toys depend on USB hubs

I need more and more USB ports for my computer. I bought a Wavlink USB hub and for the most part it works so well I don't even think about it. Sometimes it doesn't recognize my flash drives, which of course is a headache, but I bought two so it should tell you something about its quality. i love switches Many Thanks.

Pros
  • I finally have it
Cons
  • Not as good as it says

Working electronics

My compact laptop only has 2 USB ports. Since so many things connect to the computer via USB, I need more ports. This center gets the job done for a good price. I've easily connected printers, speakers, cameras, keyboards, and flash drives to my laptop through this hub.

Pros
  • Fingers crossed
Cons
  • No machine
