This will definitely be what you are looking for.

Okay first of all this thing looks amazing in the pictures, it was amazing to hold in my hands because it's aluminum not to mention the build quality. and not doing his job. what is that, right? However, this hub looks good AND does what it's supposed to do very well. I recently bought an Air and was looking for a suitable hub, which I didn't like. "I have no regrets with the purchase, this one certainly didn't disappoint. Its main advantage is its looks. Its light and compact form factor makes it easy to take with you wherever you go, whether in your pocket or in a laptop bag. Plus and if you worry about it scratching your exorbitant machine, don't worry because I come with a faux leather storage case (picture included) The hub fits snugly into two USB-C ports and eliminates almost any wobble or judder My Air had the 128GB version so an external drive is a must.I plugged in my external SSD and tried to transfer some MP4 files but so far there was no sign of stuttering or slowdown during the transfer.The iPhone became over USB port 3 well charged While I'm not sure about Android devices, remember that you can't charge your car by plugging it into the USB-C port in the middle e of the hub as this is designed to be used for data transfer only. However, you can charge your car by plugging it into the port on the end of the hub with the lightning label. If you have a monitor with a high refresh rate, you should be able to get up to 120Hz over HDMI. Cable. Not sure if it can run above 120Hz as I don't have a USB-C to DisplayPort cable to test with, so I'll leave that to others. Last but not least; Is this hub worth it? In my opinion, yes. It does what I want and expect and is very easy to carry, plus it doesn't have an extension cord to get in the way. This thing is literally the piece of the puzzle your MacBook is missing. Of course there are other options such as those offered by Anker, Satechi, Kingston etc but you can't help but agree that this one comes in a variety of colors to suit your car.
