" ...  This has created a new product category of USB Hubs. ... At various places in this review, I will compare this hub with generic smaller snap-on hubs. ... Ports: 5 stars ... 1) USB: This hub has 4 USB ports with 3 of these being USB 3. ... Anyone who's faced running modern USB 3 storage devices through a USB 2 hub will be thankful for this. ... I can move GBs of data into and from my computer in a fraction of the time that my previous hub needed. ... Essentially your computer retains all USB C ports despite having the Hub attached ... One of the recommended methods of using the hub is by placing it under your computer.  ...  "

" ...  Recently I've gone through a few different USB hubs. ... I was under the impression that I needed a hub with its own power supply. ... It works with all my peripherals without needing external power, something again, that the amazon basics hub could not seem to pull off. ... It also has all of the ports that you might need to get the job done. ... One USB 2, USB C, HDMI, VGA, a standard size and micro SD card slot, as well as an ethernet port. ... I should mention the iBesi hub however is truly plug and play. ... Just plug in your peripherals and you are good to go. ... There are some first party docking stations that have fewer ports and cost twice what this one costs. ... If you need all the ports that this hub offers I would definitely recommend it.  ...  "
