Review on πŸ”Œ 7-in-1 Type-C Adapter Hub by Kingston Nucleum - USB C Hub for MacBook, Chromebook, and USB Type-C Devices with USB 3.0, 4K HDMI, SD & MicroSD Card Ports, and Type-C Charging by Joshua Carter

NOT a UHS-ii compatible device!

According to Kingston's website, the SD reader must support UHS-ii speeds, while the Micro card only supports uhs-i. I thought it was a bit odd to have two different bus speeds but figured it was Kingston and not some unknown company selling cheap products online. Unfortunately, in all of my testing, none of my UHS-ii cards were able to reach higher speeds than UHS-i, around 80MB/s. Using the same UHS-ii cards and a Sandisk ImageMate Pro reader, I get my 200MB/s when transferring content. I really want to like this device, I just missed the VGA port. Not many USB-C hubs also have a real USB-C data port. [go to the Kingston website and look at the specifications section]

Pros
  • Pleasant to use
Cons
  • No automatic
