Review on Baseus Metal Gleam Series USB Hub (CAHUB-CW0G), 4 Ports, Gray by Petar Dimitrov Velik ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Wonderful quality, one hundred percent satisfied!

I believed I was ordering the model depicted in the photo, but instead got a younger sibling. While the graphic depicts an 8-in-1 version, I only received a 6-in-1 (my lacked SD/TF ports). I dialed Pleer's number right away. I reached out to Ru support in hopes of setting up a product swap, got my queries answered, and then decided to double-check my shipment. I used it for an entire day before deciding to retain it for myself. In theory, discussing temperatures is meaningless because the hubs warm up everything; instead, you must measure temperatures (or, alternatively, sculpt passive cooling radiators atop your structure; OH YES, THEY DO IT.). Surprisingly, even when simultaneously connecting devices via Ethernet, USB, and HDMI, this hub generated just a moderate amount of heat. Also, unlike most hubs, this one keeps the HDMI signal going strong even when the power is removed. I give suggestions generally. I would also suggest calling the Pleer. Ru phone line and placing your order over the phone before making your purchase to avoid any potential issues.

Pros
  • Good read/write speed; attractive appearance; sturdy materials; a place to tuck away the cable's plug; a convenient "pocket"
Cons
  • False negative
