Review on USB Hub Baseus Multi-functional HUB Type-C to 3xUSB+HDMI, connectors: 4, dark gray by Stanisaw Pirkowski ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The best I ever used, recommend it to everybody.

Before buying, I had a number of questions that were very interesting and to which I could not find a clear answer in advance, so now I want to share the answers to these questions. Does HDMI output work with smartphones? Yes, but not with everyone. The smartphone must have a video output (HDMI Alt Mode), in particular, the Samsung should look for support for the DeX (Desktop Experience) function. If there is such a function, then the HDMI output will most likely work. I have a Samsung Note 10+ and everything works great. Will the connected smartphone be charged from the charger inserted into the USB-C connector of the hub? Yes, it will. I bought this hub so that I could play computer games on the TV, while the computer itself is located in another apartment) The scheme is as follows: 1) There is a gaming laptop with an NVIDIA card in one apartment. 2) The laptop is connected to a router that can raise OPEN VPN 3) The smartphone has Moonlight and an Open VPN client. 4) When I want to play without being in the apartment with my laptop, I connect the VPN, wake up the computer via “Wake up on LAN” and start streaming via Moonlight. 5) It is not always convenient to play on the phone. because the screen is small, but in another apartment there is a large TV, to which I connected my smartphone (Samsung Note 10+) using this USB Hub (I also have an IPEGA wireless gamepad). Gigabit Ethernet also proved to be useful, because PING is noticeably shorter than WIFI

Pros
  • - Appearance and tactile sensations.
Cons
  • - Inconvenient location of the Type-C input (for connecting charging). It is located on the opposite side from the other exits and because of this, this hub takes up much more space, since the wires stick out from all sides.
