Review on πŸ”Œ Optimized LENTION Thunderbolt ChromeBook Multi Port USB Hubs: Top Computer Accessories & Peripherals by Tristan Graham

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Weak drive connection and disabled wifi. really bad

The price and the design seem good, but the usability is really bad. I bought it for a 2017 Apple Macbook Pro model with Touch Bar. Even when it's fully connected, if I move its hard drives/SD card, the one connected to it gets unmounted, sometimes even just by shaking the table slightly. I was importing some pictures from an SD card to an external USB 3 drive and it took forever compared to my old Macbook Air with a USB 3 card reader and the same USB 3 drive plugged into it. Wifi wasn't working properly, I thought it was a problem with the Macbook Pro and I spent an hour looking for a solution. Then I read more reviews about this hub and many had the same problem. I am returning it as it will affect my computer's functionality and could damage external drives if accidentally disconnected so easily. So far I have never given Revain a one star rating but this product even though it looks good and is well priced + features should be better designed. I'm returning it for a refund
