Works great and much faster than USB2

I've been using this 4 port USB3 hub for about 3 weeks now and it works great. I usually only use it with one device: a USB3 SD card reader. When I connect this card reader to an Anker AH401 hub, I can read from SD cards significantly faster than before when I was using a USB2 card reader through the USB2 port. So far I haven't taken full advantage of this Anker quad port hub as I mainly use it to give myself a convenient place to connect to the USB3 ports on the back of my computer. So far…

Pros
  • Acceptable
Cons
  • Definitely a bad product

It works! Networking Products

I'm editing this review because of the extremely pleasant and helpful experience with Anker's customer service. When I received this I was dissatisfied to find that my external hard drive and USB 3.0 flash drives would not connect to it. Although it worked fine with one of my USB 3.0 devices. After hearing about my bad experience, Anker called me to ask what my problem was. I told them it didn't work and they rushed me a new powered USB 3.0 hub. The new hub initially had the same problems as…

Pros
  • Same as everything before
Cons
  • Cable is shorter than others

Have reasonable expectations.

This works very well, but you have to understand that only a certain amount of data will go through a port before conflicts cause problems. Linking multiple items together is great. Just make sure none of them eat data. In my case the following 2 scenarios were tried and they failed - understandably: 1) Monitor connected via Kensington adapter + Logitech RF dongle which combines RF with mouse. Mouse movements became unusably jerky. 2) Bluetooth dongle with two-way audio and Logitech combined RF

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Negative present

Very nice for computers and accessories

So far I'm very happy with my Anker USB 3.0 Hub, I ordered it because I wanted to use the USB 3.0 port on my laptop and it was a really affordable option. The hub looks very well put together, is USB powered, cable length suits me, all ports are on top and well spaced for easy access, LED light doesn't seem overly bright and the speeds I'm getting , seem to be very fast I'm using a USB 3.0 stick. I am very happy with my purchase and expect many good services. I'm not an engineer or a real…

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Long Wait
