I recently purchased the Sabrent 4-Port USB 3.0 Hub, and it has exceeded all my expectations! This compact and lightweight hub is a fantastic addition to my workstation, providing me with the additional USB ports I desperately needed.Pros:High-Speed Transfer: The USB 3.0 ports deliver blazing fast data transfer speeds of up to 5Gbps, making it easy to transfer large files in no time.Versatile Compatibility: It works flawlessly with my laptop, desktop, and even my gaming console. I’ve connected various devices like keyboards, mice, flash drives, and controllers without any issues.Individual Power Switches: Each port has its own power switch with an LED indicator, allowing me to manage my connected devices efficiently. This feature is incredibly convenient!Plug and Play: No need for any drivers or software installation. Just plug it in, and it’s ready to use. The setup couldn’t be easier.Durable Design: The hub is well-built with a sturdy ABS case, ensuring it can withstand daily use.Cons:External Power Adapter: While the hub works perfectly with bus power, using an external power adapter (sold separately) is recommended for powering high-energy devices like external hard drives.Overall, the Sabrent 4-Port USB 3.0 Hub is an excellent product that provides great value for its price. It has significantly improved my productivity by allowing me to connect multiple devices simultaneously without any hassle. Highly recommended for anyone needing extra USB ports!

It works great and looks great. Special appreciation for the flexibility to choose to use USB ports 0/1/2/3/4 depending on your needs.

This is my second one. I've had one In my sewing studio for a very long time a time and got tired of bringing it back and forth. Works beautifully!

This device works very well. Only down side is where if you can only connect it to the left side of the laptop, all the ports face towards the laptop making it messy when hooking up into the device. Perhaps making one that allows the device to attach to the left side and have access to all the ports?

SABRENT makes some good stuff at a pretty dang good price point, and this is no exception. I just picked up two of these for $8 each, and so far they both seem to be working great. I've seen a few reviews say that 4k@60Hz does not work on this hub; this is NOT TRUE! It absolutely DOES support 4k@60Hz, but your laptop/device has to have DisplayPort 1.4 to support it. See below for the technical reason.I gave this five stars, but I really think SABRENT or the seller should update the listing to note that it specifically requires DisplayPort 1.4 to get the full 4k@60Hz. Other than that, this is probably the best bang-for-your-buck dock that isn't garbage.==================================There's one catch, and it's not really SABRENT's fault: it'll only support 4k@60Hz if your device has DisplayPort 1.4. If it only has DP 1.2, you'll be limited to 4k@30Hz. This is because the USB-C port has to share bandwidth between the display and the USB 3.0 port. DP 1.4 has plenty of bandwidth available to support both USB3 speeds with 4k@60Hz display, so no issues there. However, with DP 1.2 you have to choose between USB speed or higher refresh; you can't have both.If you have a device with DP 1.2 (and you want the full 4k@60Hz), you'll need a hub that ONLY has USB 2.0. This should work to get your higher refresh, but obviously you'll be limited to 2.0 speeds. Honestly this is probably fine for most people if all you need is mouse/keyboard. If you do require those faster speeds and refresh, you'll need a two cable solution like a USB 2.0 dock + separate USB 3.0 hub or something like that.

As long as you have a USB-C AC adapter that charges your laptop at the rated wattage (my Lenovo is a 65W AC adapter), this functions perfectly as a lightweight, basic, space-saving laptop dock. This does not come with it's own power input, but it is able to use your AC adapter to power the USB-C port for AC charging. Therefore, plug in your AC adapter in to the USB-C Port on this device, plug the dock cable in to your USB-C port on your laptop, plug in whatever accessories such as keyboard and mouse, in to this device, and connect your display to the HDMI port on this device. As such, you will have a functioning laptop dock that you can disconnect from your laptop with one cable. The price cannot be beat.
