Review on Sabrent USB-C Hub with HDMI, 2 USB 3.0 Ports, 4K Support, and 60W Power Delivery (HB-U2HC) by Joz Lowe

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good dongle, pay attention to the connectors and power supply limitation

This is a small, lightweight dongle for connecting an HDMI monitor and two USB 3.0 devices to a USB-C laptop such as a MacBook Pro 2017+ . The quality is there, as is the range of functions. There are many keys on the market, each with their own pros and cons. You get exactly the combination of ports (USB 3.0, HDMI) and card slots (SD, Micro-SD) you want. It has one more USB 3.0 port than Apple, but it's limited to 60W, which isn't quite the maximum supported by 15-inch MacBook Pros. For most, this will be a good compromise. This is a great size for travel. checked all connections and I'm using HDMI on a 4K/30Hz monitor with no problems. It's fairly stable and the build quality is excellent. It's something you can easily throw in your backpack and not be left disconnected in a remote environment. There's an internal blue LED that's always on, not particularly offensive, but not particularly useful either.
