Review on Satechi Aluminum Multi-Port Adapter V2-4K HDMI (60Hz) by Russell Ross

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Great hub but power passthrough is too low for MacBook Pro

I initially thought this hub was fantastic. Over time I encountered 2 issues that changed my mind: 1) Power Transfer not working for Macbook Pro. My MBP requires 87 watts of power. When passing the hub, the charge drops to 47 watts. Over time, the laptop shuts down due to insufficient power. 2) The micro SD card is too deep. You cannot insert and remove the Micro SD card without using a sharp object. The card sits too far in the hub before the spring snaps it into place.

Pros
  • Same as everything before
Cons
  • Not as thick as other options
