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.

27-inch 4K
Supports an external display. Check the resolution you need.
