Video Description

So I bought 12 of Amazon's most popular USB-C hubs. And here's the thing...the highest rated ones on Amazon, performed the worst. The best USB-C hub is going to cost a few more dollars that the top rated Amazon ones BUT you're getting so much more functionality out of them! Here are the Top 5 USB-C Hubs (w/ Amazon affiliate links): 1. UGreen Revodok Pro 7 in 1 - https://mreh.ca/4bz4ff6 2. Benfei USB-C Hub 7 in 1 - https://mreh.ca/49ruceA 3. Anker 553 PowerExpand+USB-C 8 in 1 Hub - https://mreh.ca/4bwjIMQ 4. Anker PowerExpand+ USB-C 7 in 1 Hub - https://mreh.ca/3HRNiia 5. Zmuipng USB-C Hub Multiport Adapter 9 in 1 Hub - https://mreh.ca/3HTCb8p In this video: 0:00 Intro 0:19 #4 and #5 2:57 Top 3 #reviewernotinfluencer #mobilereviewseh #reviews 5. Zmuipng USB-C Hub Multiport Adapter 9 in 1 Hub - https://mreh.ca/3HTCb8p -Among the top 5 tested, with significant drawbacks. -Slowest charging speed, failing to charge a MacBook Pro in Game mode and losing charge despite claims of 100W (effective 87W after hub consumption). -Overheats at 110°F, the highest in the test group. -Below-average USB 3 data transfer speeds. -Redeeming features include two USB-C ports for data and charging, avoiding the "hanging dock look" due to a longer cable. 4. Anker PowerExpand+ USB-C 7 in 1 Hub - https://mreh.ca/3HRNiia -Considered the bare minimum standard for USB-C hubs. -Larger size with 7 ports but below-average USB 3 port performance and inadequate iPhone charging in demanding conditions. -Main advantage: decent SD and MicroSD card transfer speeds, despite not fully supporting SDXC2 speeds. 3. Anker 553 PowerExpand+USB-C 8 in 1 Hub - https://mreh.ca/4bwjIMQ -Superior to the 7-in-1 model in almost every aspect. -Priced higher at $50, which may deter budget-conscious buyers. -Slightly slower flow-through charging. -Highlights include top 3 SD card reading speeds, fast USB 3.0 data transfer, quicker charging through ports, and a metallic cover for a premium feel. Comes with a carrying bag. 2. Benfei USB-C Hub 7 in 1 - https://mreh.ca/49ruceA -Surprisingly high performer for its price, making it the best budget option. -Performs averagely well in most tests except for poor SD card reader speeds. -Suitable for those needing basic peripheral connectivity without high demands on SD card usage. 1. UGreen Revodok Pro 7 in 1 - https://mreh.ca/4bz4ff6 -The best overall based on comprehensive criteria. -Heavier than average but lacks an ethernet port. -Average SD card reader speeds but excels with a longer connection cable, significantly faster USB A port data transfer speeds (800 mb/s), and 25% faster charging through USB A ports. -Unique for having a second USB-C port, a rare feature among tested hubs. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Subscribe to stay in the loop!
