Many of these USB C hubs only support 4K HDMI at 30 Hz, which is headache inducing lag. I bought the Anker 555 because it has 4K 60 Hz. IMO, the Anker 555 is the more rounded one *if* external monitor is important.
Wish you reviewed one that you loved, but the Ugreen was better than expected. Also, I like your humor, the fact that you said 'by' accident, that you didn't play loud and annoying music... also, your puppy that looks like a little old man... and that I thought was stuffed it was so chill.
How do these differ from a USBC docking station as there are Dell Universal USB-C docking stations available but like $312 from our corporate help desk which is insane
One thing I wish you had looked at was using hdmi with an iPad/iphone. I went through my older usb c dongles and tried to use the hdmi on my iPad. Only one actually worked. The test was a 10ft hdmi 2.1 cable to a 1080p input while the iPad as getting pass through power.
Same thing here. I found that my charging while using a hub to use my iPad on an external screen was extremely slow. Im thinking of giving the u green one a try
One thing was missing and that was HDMI specs. The hubs vary a lot regarding the maximum frequency they support and if they support AMD Freesync or not.
I've been subbed to you for a while and enjoy+appreciate your videos on phone accessories! I wanted to say that this is a helpful overall comparison video but technically speaking you should distinguish between Megabits (Mb) and Megabytes (MB) to do an accurate comparison of USB or SD card transfer speeds. You say bits throughout the video when the SD cards indicate their bytes figure on them (8 Mb = 1 MB), but your on screen graphics say MB and mb at different times. According to Samsung, your T5 SSD is advertised with a max transfer rate of 540 MB/s which is 4320 Mb/s which is >86% the theoretical bandwidth of USB 3.0/3.1/3.2 Gen 1 (5 Gigabits per second or 5000Mbps). With no bottlenecks, good heat management, and good/lucky flash memory, you might be able to temporarily meet or exceed that spec of 540 MB/s. But probably not on a 5Gbps connection; there will always be overhead/a buffer with a theoretical bandwidth, you'll never be able to meaningfully "access" or "use" the full 5000Mbps. Regardless whether you're using USB C or USB A, the hub you're using will have a theoretical throughput of either 5 Gbps (625 MB/s) or 10 Gbps (1250 MB/s) depending on the advertised specification of the USB hub. For a given product, provided specifications/marketing materials/images should indicate whether the USB ports are 5Gbps (USB 3.0/3.1/3.2 Gen 1) or 10Gbps (Gen 2). Even in the manual for the T5 SSD, Samsung says you must use a USB 3.1 Gen 2 (i.e. 10Gbps) connection for the max data transfer speed. Of the top 4 hubs you linked, only #1 wouldn't cause a bottleneck for the T5 because the UGreen has 10Gbps USB ports. The Anker 553 is 5Gbps, but the 555 which loses an HDMI port is 10Gbps (it looks like a major selling point of the 553 is the dual 4K HDMI ports which likely made them cut costs on the USB). I couldn't find the Zmuipng through your link but given its price, it's probably safe to assume it's 5Gbps. All this to say that it's a given that a 10Gbps USB connection will perform better than a 5Gbps connection if a storage device can utilize the additional bandwidth. Also USB (and HDMI) naming conventions are absolute garbage. A couple disclaimers though: I'm assuming you used the T5 (shown in the video) in your transfer tests, which is why I'm confused how the T5 SSD performed at 400MB/s (500 on the Anker 553?) on "average" hubs but with the UGreen you got 800MB/s, if the max speed of the T5 according to Samsung is 540MB/s? Those numbers don't make sense to me but maybe you were using a different SSD (T7?) or somehow you did a test of the connection somehow and not a transfer test? I also can't speak to the transfer speed of SD cards because I don't know as much about them but it's obvious that most hubs are cheaping out on the SD card reader slots. Thank you for testing that and determining which ones are usable and which aren't. Hope you see this and can address if you have the time. Thanks!
Thank you for your wonderful and thorough review! Can the USB-C power cable detach from the "UGreen Revodok Pro 7 in 1"? The included cable appears to be too short for my needs and I was planning on adding a USB-C extension cable to make it longer.
Great content as always. Thanks. I bought myself the Acasis hub last year. Has capacity for an SSD. It’s more expensive than the ones you reviewed, but in my experience, it’s been great. Only complaint is it runs hot.
I appreciate this channel because of his unbiased insight and he points out the little annoyance stuff that I wouldn’t think about. Best product reviews channels out there.
Your channel is not popular enough. This is a great video, entertaining, informative and exactly the thing I was looking for. Honest first hand perspective on budget hubs and I didnt have to sit through 20 minutes of fluff to get there. Excellent. Thank you!
Thanks for your honest reviews I have watching the channel for the channel for a couple years & always use your links for buying the products! Would love to see an HDMI cable review!! 🎉
not comprehensive review, didnt mention the hdmi spec of the hubs, only focused on transfer speeds. The Ugreen hub recommended here only supports 4k30hz aka ancient hdmi 1.4, whereas anker supports 4k60hz, hdmi 2.0 which hub is better depends on your requirements honestly.
Yep this is completely ignoring a lot of hubs or "docks" which can do dual monitors, full speed charging, Thunderbolt etc (but cost 2-5x). The hubs he's chosen are all in a narrow price range so they are just quite similar to one another. If you are looking for something for a home office then these are worth looking at.
Thanks for the reviews, I went through this exercise (on paper) weeks ago and picked an Orico 10 in 1 hub. It seemed to tick all my check boxes which were multiple USB A ports, HDMI, power to laptop, etc. Of course no USB C ports aside from power distribution and also you have to buy a strong external adapter to use this correctly as it needs more power than the original laptop adapter - hence I got also a Tunnu 130w adapter to work with it.
Entertaining. Toyota Camry never won any awards for performance or style but over time it ended up being one of the most reliable cars ever. Some of the data speeds you mention may be a mixed bag and thankfully you pointed out the good, bad and ugly with them. For those looking to purchase there may be one to suit. Big thanks for the time you took to help those who have no clue. (me included).
Great video! I'd love a similar one on thunderbolt "docks". They are similar, but they add things like HDMI, VGA, and LAN ports. I bought one on Amazon to use with my ThinkPad X3 tablet to add additional IO, but also additional capabilities like HDMI output. But the experience has been flaky at best. It'd be great to find out if there's any decent options out there!
I think your video is amazing. I love the fact that you put real world opinion and you'red assessment of all the different options, but I have one critique, it's great that you've tested each individual peripheral, and if it's accurate in transfer, but this is a 7 in 1 and in some cases. And in all cases I have not seen you test more than one item at 1 time. Can I see the HDMI? And the usbc work at the same time, and does these 7 ones work on a phone? Have you tested these on other devices in a laptop?I need to know these other informations
He made a perfect fit tie for the best boi!! Best tech channel ever! I thought Marques was the king of tech videos with his 🐶Mac review, but this guy reaches next level!
I just bought the Revodock Pro 109 instead of your number 1 pick (the 107). I'm hoping it has all of the Pros, but adds the Ethernet port, which is a must have for me. Great video!
I almost bought the Benfei USB-C Hub 7 in 1 then I saw your video and well the last one the UGreen Revodok Pro 7 in 1 is what this Canadian needs right now. ThankQ
One could stand to learn much from your editing style. I liked it. Well done video. Only thing I wish I knew is how well they hold up over time ? New vid ? Thx
I liked this video and your ability to keep it engaging. Quick question, what HUB would you use if you needed to supply power to an iPad that also uses that HUB to connect to external SSD's etc... From what I understand is that the Mac Book/iPad uses its internal power to supply power to other connected items once the battery is out no more play time.
Great job presenting. Was wondering why Monty has the patience to sit so nicely looking at you for such a long time, I thought you had a sausage pinned to the back of your arm. 🤣Then I realized Monty has been composited in because his fur is much sharper than your t-shirt. Triple A props for a great job on production. It would help your viewers to re-cap with a pop up textual ranking at the end from 5 - 1 or 1 - 5 layered with your conclusion. I'm still looking for TB3 or TB4 with built in NVME M2. I hate the way Apple makes you buy all these dongles because their MBP are port crippled just to make them slim and sexy.
Thanks for the review, wondering if you've tested any UNI products? I have their USB-C card reader and I can read 2 SD cards at once. I also have both of the mini dock and full-size Doc although I don't use those as often.

Do you know if the other hubs from Ugrern is also good? I need a ethernet port and was thinking about getting the UGREEN Revodok Pro 211 11-in-1 USB-C Hub. Do you know if it’s any good?
Not going to kid you but you're so good at how you present your reviews. I look forward to these reviews and that dog always looks locked in on you. You got the charisma and make it enjoyable. Keep doing what you do and I will keep watching them.
When travelling, THE most important task is backing up camera SD cards to an SSD. Which makes the 4 accessories I need: 1. Decent USB hub, 2. SD card reader, 3. SSD drive, and 4. Powerbank. Thanks for the warning about SD readers - seems a merger of items 1 and 2 is NOT a good idea. Can you suggest a better reader?
Kingston MobileLite Plus USB 3.2 microSDHC/SDXC UHS-II Card Reader This is one of the few card reader that can do 150-200 MB/s reads with Samsung/Sandisk. Those use non compliant UHS-I spec of 104MB/s limit. Can also fully read UHS-II cards too
Hi, first of all thank you! Which would be the best hub, for almost permanent connection of macbook to external screen hdmi, 2 usb a sockets, 2 usbc sockets, ethernet and a sound socket for connection to external speakers. thanks so much, really enjoying your prof and clear reviews!
Nice… and yes I can confirm of all the USB-C Hubs in that price range and size / style I used/tested the UGREEN HUBS work the best, fastest and reliable.
Have you tried baseus brand ones? I heard good things about them wondering if you could test it out and let us know if what people boast is true. They seem to be sponsored people so idk maybe it's just that get you to buy them thing. Also same for uni brand. There's one that's cute with a cover seems durable and travel friendly but idk after seeing your reviews and how you think about your choices to decide what sint good I want to know your perspective.
Ugreen!🎉🎉 Got it! It was on my list already!!😂 Cant wait to get it. Its gonna be vital in my charging solutions! 🔋 ⚡ I wanna get a usb power supply for my cabin. Run it off a 12V system for small lights and strips!! 🕯️charge by day and use it to light the cabin by night! My cabin is on grid, but why waste electricity 🔌 when i just need minimal lighting at night. Maybe enough power for a couple movies...? Im still going thru my options but usb lighting seems like a smart choice nowadays!😂 Easier than hardwiring off a big battery, and an easy, quick, temporary plug and play type option. Also instead of just lights it can charge and power other devices! Could get a bunch of adapters and cords as well to make even more versatile!!🎉
I was surprised not to see the CharjenPro ultimate dock Gen 2. It performs way better than all your top 5. It's slightly more expensive but for a travel dock it's very next gen for USB, HDMI, Ethernet and HDMI over these.
What hub do you actually suggest (by budget ranges maybe?) for content creators? Would like something with pretty fast SD/MicroSD and USB C (external ssd) speeds. 💙
Can we get a list for usb c hubs with charging and hdmi 4k 60hz ? Most of us don't really care about microsd slot when we can just use a pendrive or external ssd.
My thoughts exactly, I suppose Megabytes for SD card because that's standard, and Megabits for the rest because the Samsung T5 maxes out at 500MB rw (couldn't be 800, then)
The HP 240 G8 14-inch Business laptop I have doesn't come with USB-C Thunderbolt. Do you have any recommendations for a USB hub for my laptop that supports HDMI to USB hub?
Hi, can you help me find the right product? For this 12.4 inch Xiaomi Pad 6S Pro tablet, it is suitable for moving mouse, keyboard and screen transfer. Thank you waiting for your reply 🥰
You seem to have missed my favorite, which ticks off just about every box for me. It is more than worth the price, when you see what it does and compare its build quality. DOCKCASE Visual Smart USB C Hub (10-in-1) with 4K@60Hz HDMI and DP, Gigabit Ethernet, 1 USB-C and 3 USB-A Ports, 100w PD Power Delivery, UHS-II TF/SD Card Slot
Great review but I cannot find the ugreen pro 7 in 1. The link gets me to an amazon page where there seem to be many different ugreen 7 in 1 dongles. Is there a model number?
since you already have all those usb hub, can you test it for "iphone 15 pro camera rig's usb hub" ? so using that hub as intermediary to iphone 15 pro to charge, record to external ssd (following apple recommended speed), mic recorder..
It is amazing how many tech youtubers appear to not know the difference between Megabits / sec and Megabytes / sec, the difference is 8. I have seen many youtubers make this mistake. Please don't confuse the greater public at large. As far as the rest of the review, great thanks.
Any Recs for a 4 usb-c to 1 usb-c port hubs? I want to plug 4 seagate/western digital desktop external drives using a micro-usb-b to c cable into this...into the back of mac studio TB4 or front usb-c port.Taking up 1 port of the 4 of the mac studio or 1 from the front. I can then transfer data at 10gb/s without "slow down".
Great reviews. You've saved me a bunch of time. One nit-pick however - the ability to power/charge the MacBook through the hub is almost unnecessary. My MacBooks all have MagSafe charging and for those without MagSafe, I charge through the on-board USB-C port. And if you have a Hub, you likely won't use the other on-board USB-C for data (only for charging). So, it's almost a negative that the hubs offer Power Delivery - I will never use it.
Thanks for this. I wanna order the Ugreen 7/1 but there's a little confusion because therey have so many Pro models. I clicked the link you provide but still not sure which is which. Could you point me to the axact one you reviewed?
Next time you test USB hubs, test the Ethernet port if they come with one. There is a LOT of issues with these. Some, if plugged into power and Ethernet but not a laptop will flood a network with "pause" frames, and while this is technically part of the Ethernet spec, the behavior is arguably improper, and many switches don't handle it well. The result is that USBC hubs with Ethernet ports can bring down entire networks. Many I.T. departments have banned employees from bringing in USBC hubs because of the chaos they create on networks. In my experience, all of the hubs I've tried have had unusable Ethernet ports. They are unreliable, drop packets disconnect, or cause issues with other clients. The biggest problems seem to be while on a video conference, which is an issue with so many people still working from home or traveling. I've had to resort to a dedicated usbc Ethernet adapter. I've given trying to find a hub with a working port.
I just subscribed. I thought your video on mice was helpful, but I ended up looking at Monty the entire time :-) I decided that if Monty is in any other videos, I will become a sub. Needless to say, he is, so I subscribed and looking at the topics of your videos, I will find those helpful on their own, but Monty is a bonus.
Would love to see a review of the Dockcase Explorer hubs. It's one of the few hubs I found that has a UHS-II SD card reader, but I found it to be somewhat picky about certain things (cable, computer).
If you have all these hubs, you could make a video for the ones who don’t want to use a laptop. We are a lot of photographers who want to travel light and need to transfer photos from a sd card reader to a little ssd hard drive all without the need of a laptop, only an iPhone and a power pack.
do you have any opinions on hubs that plug directly into the end of a tablet, ie, no cable? I feel like they're tidier but perhaps you didn't like or review them for a particular reason? Cheers

I need a ethernet port and was thinking about getting the UGREEN Revodok Pro 211 11-in-1 USB-C Hub. Do you know if it’s any good?
Not going to kid you but you're so good at how you present your reviews. I look forward to these reviews and that dog always looks locked in on you. You got the charisma and make it enjoyable. Keep doing what you do and I will keep watching them.
Respected button for the Dog who listened to each words of you sincerely ❤
When travelling, THE most important task is backing up camera SD cards to an SSD. Which makes the 4 accessories I need:
1. Decent USB hub,
2. SD card reader,
3. SSD drive, and
4. Powerbank.
Thanks for the warning about SD readers - seems a merger of items 1 and 2 is NOT a good idea. Can you suggest a better reader?
Kingston MobileLite Plus USB 3.2 microSDHC/SDXC UHS-II Card Reader
This is one of the few card reader that can do 150-200 MB/s reads with Samsung/Sandisk. Those use non compliant UHS-I spec of 104MB/s limit. Can also fully read UHS-II cards too
Thank you for your review. Have you tested the ugreen pro 210 10 in 1?
Did you get to try the Anker 555? It has a USB C connection at 10Gbps. Thank you.
Would have been nice to see a usb-c hub that supports higher refresh rates (like 1080p or 1440p 144hz) over hdmi in addition to some usb ports
Hi, first of all thank you! Which would be the best hub, for almost permanent connection of macbook to external screen hdmi, 2 usb a sockets, 2 usbc sockets, ethernet and a sound socket for connection to external speakers. thanks so much, really enjoying your prof and clear reviews!
Nice… and yes I can confirm of all the USB-C Hubs in that price range and size / style I used/tested the UGREEN HUBS work the best, fastest and reliable.
Thanks !
Have you tried baseus brand ones? I heard good things about them wondering if you could test it out and let us know if what people boast is true. They seem to be sponsored people so idk maybe it's just that get you to buy them thing. Also same for uni brand. There's one that's cute with a cover seems durable and travel friendly but idk after seeing your reviews and how you think about your choices to decide what sint good I want to know your perspective.
Ugreen!🎉🎉
Got it! It was on my list already!!😂
Cant wait to get it. Its gonna be vital in my charging solutions! 🔋 ⚡ I wanna get a usb power supply for my cabin. Run it off a 12V system for small lights and strips!!
🕯️charge by day and use it to light the cabin by night!
My cabin is on grid, but why waste electricity 🔌 when i just need minimal lighting at night. Maybe enough power for a couple movies...?
Im still going thru my options but usb lighting seems like a smart choice nowadays!😂
Easier than hardwiring off a big battery, and an easy, quick, temporary plug and play type option. Also instead of just lights it can charge and power other devices!
Could get a bunch of adapters and cords as well to make even more versatile!!🎉
What micro card reader is best?
I was surprised not to see the CharjenPro ultimate dock Gen 2. It performs way better than all your top 5. It's slightly more expensive but for a travel dock it's very next gen for USB, HDMI, Ethernet and HDMI over these.
thanks for this review simple und clear!!
Great video. This is the content we need
What hub do you actually suggest (by budget ranges maybe?) for content creators? Would like something with pretty fast SD/MicroSD and USB C (external ssd) speeds. 💙
Can we get a list for usb c hubs with charging and hdmi 4k 60hz ? Most of us don't really care about microsd slot when we can just use a pendrive or external ssd.

Did you measure speeds in Megabits or Megabytes? The voice over says bits but the text on the video says bytes (MB)?
My thoughts exactly, I suppose Megabytes for SD card because that's standard, and Megabits for the rest because the Samsung T5 maxes out at 500MB rw (couldn't be 800, then)
He's not a tech blogger. He's a tech-illiterate embarrassment. No excuse.
Sorry, i didn't listen to a single word you said. I kept looking at your dog. He's adorable. 😀
That's doggo is a way too good of a boy
the dog's in love with you bro
Thank you so much very informative and thorough.
The HP 240 G8 14-inch Business laptop I have doesn't come with USB-C Thunderbolt. Do you have any recommendations for a USB hub for my laptop that supports HDMI to USB hub?
Todays Monty tie is excellent. Suits him.
Hi, can you help me find the right product? For this 12.4 inch Xiaomi Pad 6S Pro tablet, it is suitable for moving mouse, keyboard and screen transfer. Thank you waiting for your reply 🥰
You seem to have missed my favorite, which ticks off just about every box for me. It is more than worth the price, when you see what it does and compare its build quality. DOCKCASE Visual Smart USB C Hub (10-in-1) with 4K@60Hz HDMI and DP, Gigabit Ethernet, 1 USB-C and 3 USB-A Ports, 100w PD Power Delivery, UHS-II TF/SD Card Slot
Don't know how this came across my page but I'm here for the dog 🐕
Great review but I cannot find the ugreen pro 7 in 1. The link gets me to an amazon page where there seem to be many different ugreen 7 in 1 dongles. Is there a model number?
since you already have all those usb hub, can you test it for "iphone 15 pro camera rig's usb hub" ?
so using that hub as intermediary to iphone 15 pro to charge, record to external ssd (following apple recommended speed), mic recorder..
Thanks, this was very helpful!
your dog is cute haha hes listening to you while youre vlogging :D
It is amazing how many tech youtubers appear to not know the difference between Megabits / sec and Megabytes / sec, the difference is 8. I have seen many youtubers make this mistake. Please don't confuse the greater public at large. As far as the rest of the review, great thanks.
Any Recs for a 4 usb-c to 1 usb-c port hubs? I want to plug 4 seagate/western digital desktop external drives using a micro-usb-b to c cable into this...into the back of mac studio TB4 or front usb-c port.Taking up 1 port of the 4 of the mac studio or 1 from the front. I can then transfer data at 10gb/s without "slow down".
Great reviews. You've saved me a bunch of time. One nit-pick however - the ability to power/charge the MacBook through the hub is almost unnecessary. My MacBooks all have MagSafe charging and for those without MagSafe, I charge through the on-board USB-C port. And if you have a Hub, you likely won't use the other on-board USB-C for data (only for charging). So, it's almost a negative that the hubs offer Power Delivery - I will never use it.
Thanks for this. I wanna order the Ugreen 7/1 but there's a little confusion because therey have so many Pro models. I clicked the link you provide but still not sure which is which. Could you point me to the axact one you reviewed?
I have the same problem don’t know which one to get
@@jeangillespie5386 I bought the Mokin, Model MOUC2903. It has worked out quite well. It looks smart and compact.
Next time you test USB hubs, test the Ethernet port if they come with one. There is a LOT of issues with these. Some, if plugged into power and Ethernet but not a laptop will flood a network with "pause" frames, and while this is technically part of the Ethernet spec, the behavior is arguably improper, and many switches don't handle it well. The result is that USBC hubs with Ethernet ports can bring down entire networks. Many I.T. departments have banned employees from bringing in USBC hubs because of the chaos they create on networks. In my experience, all of the hubs I've tried have had unusable Ethernet ports. They are unreliable, drop packets disconnect, or cause issues with other clients. The biggest problems seem to be while on a video conference, which is an issue with so many people still working from home or traveling. I've had to resort to a dedicated usbc Ethernet adapter. I've given trying to find a hub with a working port.
Brother absolutely love your channel ❤️
😆 “Hanging Dong” If I ever made a band…
I just subscribed. I thought your video on mice was helpful, but I ended up looking at Monty the entire time :-) I decided that if Monty is in any other videos, I will become a sub. Needless to say, he is, so I subscribed and looking at the topics of your videos, I will find those helpful on their own, but Monty is a bonus.
Ethernet port with LINK LIGHTS is important! What do you think about the Baseus 8-in-1
Would love to see a review of the Dockcase Explorer hubs. It's one of the few hubs I found that has a UHS-II SD card reader, but I found it to be somewhat picky about certain things (cable, computer).
If you have all these hubs, you could make a video for the ones who don’t want to use a laptop. We are a lot of photographers who want to travel light and need to transfer photos from a sd card reader to a little ssd hard drive all without the need of a laptop, only an iPhone and a power pack.
do you have any opinions on hubs that plug directly into the end of a tablet, ie, no cable? I feel like they're tidier but perhaps you didn't like or review them for a particular reason? Cheers
Good job! no non-sense review, got the info needed
Waiting to see which one would take the first place, just to find out that it’s exactly the one I ordered 5 days ago. Ummm that feeling!
Hi sir!
Does the Ugreen Uno 6-in-1 hub works well with my HP Envy x360 Ryzen 5 5600u?
Thank you so much!
That puppy is just ❤❤❤❤❤❤
