Customers are saying

Customers are impressed with the 4-Port USB 3.0 Hub's ease of use, the number of USB ports it provides, and its compact size. Many appreciate its performance and compatibility with various devices, along with its reasonable price. However, some customers wish the cord was longer and mention occasional connection issues. A few also noted that the lightweight design can make it prone to tipping over.

This summary was generated by AI based on customer reviews.

The vast majority of our reviews come from verified purchases. Reviews from customers may include My Best Buy members, employees, and Tech Insider Network members (as tagged). Select reviewers may receive discounted products, promotional considerations or entries into drawings for honest, helpful reviews.

    Stopped working while using it. The USB 3 cable is not type A or B on device end and doesn't go all the way into the unit. Will be returning.

    The hdmi slots are a bit hard to fit the cable in, but you can work them in. My scanner did not work when plugged into this device, I had to plug it directly in to my Surface Pro 4.

    This unit is very unstable and doesn't work well with USB 3.0 devices. Look elsewhere if you need a hub to transfer data. It will charge devices that are plugged in with no issues

    Didn't work properly

    I purchased this hub because my desktop computer only has two USB 3.0 ports. At first my computer would not recognize the hub. I had to plug and unplug the cable to my computer a couple of times before the hub worked. Connected a USB 3.0 portable hard drive to the hub. Initial transfers from my desktop to the hard drive were quick. Then the hub stopped recognizing the hard drive. Unplugging and plugging the hard drive back in didn't work. Tried unplugging the hub and plugging it back in. Computer wouldn't recognize the hub. Ended up returning the hub for a refund at the local Best Buy store which was painless.
