Got this with a new MacBook Pro Laptop and need USB-A ports for a real keyboard (extended), external HD, and a mouse cause these old hands don't have the touch for the pad.

Ok, didn't realize this was a hub for multiple ports when I first purchase it. What I did find is that it can be used with a battery pack as a multiple port charging hub when connected to my 20K battery pack. As a part of my travel kit for charging all of my devices on the go it will allow me to carry this, my battery pack along with different cables to charge my cellphone, smart watch an battery pack, as well as a laptop using a 60 watt USB charger block (BestBuy brand). By using this as connection to my 60 USB charger block with pass through to the USB C I can charge my laptop while charging my cell phone, watch as well as batteries for other devices using the USB A ports. When I purchase my charging block I did purchase cables to convert USB C to USB A. So this allows me to charge either USB A or C type devices. When not using it as charging hub I can then use it as a regular hub to connect other devices to a laptop at home or away such as cell phone to download pictures taken during vacation etc. So far it is more than just a hub for a network cable USB A connection and USB A type devices.

One of the quickest ways to add additional connectivity options to your USB-C/Thunderbolt Apple device. I use this interchangeably with my 2022 iPad Pro, my 2020 MacBook Pro M1, and my 2023 MacMini M2 Pro. Power delivery is as advertised, as is the bandwidth and throughput of each of the available USB ports. Which thing is built like tank, small completely reliable. It is an essential tool in my digital toolbox.

Works great to connect my MacBook Air for use at home to my keyboard, mouse, and webcam! Plus, it has a USB C port if I want to connect or charge my iPhone!! It's compact and perfect for me as I don't need any extra ports, card readers, etc. Also, it was just under $30.00!!!

I like the 3 USB ports so I can connect all the stuff and it charges too. The little carry case is a nice touch.
