What the specs mean for you

USB ports

4

1x USB-C upstream (DisplayPort 1.4 Alt Mode, up to 65W to the laptop, 5Gbps), 1x USB-C 5Gbps downstream (15W), 2x USB-A 5Gbps downstream

Laptop charging through the hub

65W

Keeps MacBook Airs, 13-14" ultrabooks and most Windows laptops charged under normal use. A 16-inch MacBook Pro will charge slowly under heavy load.

Data speed

5 Gbps

About 400 MB/s: fine for flash drives, hard drives, keyboards and webcams, and a bottleneck for fast SSDs.

Display output

27-inch 4K

Supports an external display. Check the resolution you need.

Total ports

6

Covers a typical desk setup: display, a few USB devices, cards or Ethernet.

Why people pick it

  • 4K at 120Hz over a single USB-C cable, uncommon at this level
  • 65W charging covers MacBook Airs and most 13- to 14-inch Windows laptops
  • Height, swivel and pivot adjustable stand plus built-in speakers
  • Ships with a 1.8m 100W USB-C cable

Know before you buy

  • 65W is not enough to keep a 14- or 16-inch MacBook Pro or a gaming laptop fully charged under load
  • Small 5Gbps hub with three downstream ports, no Ethernet and no KVM
  • No DisplayPort input and no daisy-chain output
  • 350 nits and 1500:1 contrast: fine for office work, not a color-critical or HDR display
