The most stylish way to connect to your MacBook Pro

This is the most stylish yet reliable solution for your 2016 MacBook Pro. I've tried several USB hubs and adapters and they've either proven to be unreliable (e.g. bend easily, connection issues, spark when charging. Cables, just ugly design). Lighters or packs of gum solve both problems at once. And it does its job almost perfectly. Here are the pros and cons. Pros: 1. It can charge your MacBook with no efficiency loss. (with external port. see picture)2. All ports work well even if they are all in use.3. The color and stylish design perfectly match the MacBook Pro. It looks like a laptop accessory kit.4. A nice little light indicates a proper connection, just like the old Macsafe charger. Even Apple didn't get it right, but CharJenPro brought it back! Small form factor. You can wear it with ease. You can even leave it on the laptop when you pack your laptop in your backpack! Cons: 1. The second USB-C port does not charge the Macbook.2. The design is exclusively for the new Macbook Pro as both USB-C.3 ports need to be connected. It doesn't have an HDMI, Thunderbolt 2, or other monitor port. Conclusion: CharJenPro has done it again! If you're looking for a portable connection solution for your MacBook Pro, MacStick is perfect for you. It feels like it should be included in your MacBook Pro.

Pros
  • Fingers crossed
Cons
  • Upgradeable
