🔌 Anker 4-Port USB 3.0 Unibody Aluminum Data Hub for MacBook, iMac, Surface Pro, and More Review

I bought this product 10 months ago for my 2011 iMac. When I tried to use it with Apple products, nothing synced or charged. Only my non-Apple products such as flash drive, android, external battery and headphones synced and charged. I thought it was an issue with the hub as it worked fine when I connected my phone directly to the computer. So I never tested this issue again.
