    This hub worked great for exactly what I needed to do and it was cheaper than the apple one and does more. It has Ethernet, Mini HDMI. I needed that for my external monitor I have for my MacBook.

    You can get a less expensive one on Amazon but it will not function as well. This USB-C hub is quality made and works seamlessly with my new iMac. Just plug-in. No app or program needed. Only issue is with the iMac. Why are the new iMacs made so inefficient, less hard drive space and less compatibility?

    Almost perfect

    This insignia 7 port hub is one of those things I was looking for a while. I wanted a hub where I could expand my ports without the need to connect an extra power supply. This hub will give you an additional 2 USB3, 1 HDMI @4K 60hz, 1 USBC, 1 Ethernet port, and 2 SD card readers, 1 micro and 1 standard. All you need to do is plug it to your Thunderbolt/USBC port and that's it. The device itself is small and light. It comes with a braided cable which is flexible and easy to maneuver. I actually used most of the ports at once and the device handled the load very well. This thing can handle up to 85W for power delivery and data transfers of 5Gbps. While using this with my Windows laptop I was able to free up the rear USB slots and use those connected devices with the hub instead. The ethernet connection works like a charm. No driver or extra software was required, just plug and play and I was connected to the internet. PC or Mac are not the only devices you can use this hub. This also works with Android, ChromeOs and IpadOs. I connected it to my mobile phone and used the HDMI to project the phone to the TV and it worked. With a Samsung phone it will launch the Samsung DeX on the TV and the phone will act as a mousepad, pretty cool. You can also attach storage devices while using the hub with the phone. Indeed this hub sounds like the perfect hub, but it is not. The only USB-C port available in the hub is only for power delivery. That will be a trade off for those who's laptops has 2 or less USBC ports. Overall this hub works and performs very well without the need of extra wires or power supply. It is nicely made and with its small footprint is perfect for travel. It has a variety of ports that will accommodate most types of peripherals and will not break your bank. In the box you get the hub and manual.

    Great all-around hub for almost any situation

    This is a great device overall that will likely meet the needs of most users looking for a hub that does it all. The only downsides are limited bandwidth and USB-C ports. Otherwise, it is great for travel or just expanding abilities of a laptop. Pros: -Lots of ports -Good overall speeds -Small size -Durable build Cons: -Faster options out there (5Gbps) -HDMI is limited to 4k 60hz -USB-C port does not provide power to other devices (hard drives) The device only requires one USB-C port which is convenient, though it comes with the drawback of limited speeds as others which might have two connections provide much higher bandwidth to devices. Using it with my 4K monitor, it does just fine but keep in mind it is limited to 60hz only. Additionally, I tried the USB-C port to plug in a SSD hard drive which it would not recognize. The port is labeled USB-C input and provides up to 85W to the laptop when used with a 100W adaptor. Of note, the box states “USB-C port needs DP-ALT mode to connect to a display.” There is both Micro SD and SD card slots which is great for photographers. Using CrystalDiskMark I was able to get the following speeds. 512GB MicroSD Samsung Pro Plus 159 MB/s read. 119 MB/s write. I thought it was a little strange that the SD card slot will require you to insert the card upside down, it is a minor detail but just a little strange when first trying to put my card in. This is the hub I will keep in my laptop bag as it is good for pretty much any situation, especially as most laptops do not come with HDMI or Ethernet (1Gbps speed) these days.

    RELIABLE PERIPHERAL HUB

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I certainly understand that laptops with thin cases and small main boards may not have enough room for lots of connectivity options. However, it just seems to me that some manufacturers have decided that one USB-A port and one USB-C port are all we will have on their laptops. I believe that this is ridiculous and unacceptable, nevertheless we consumers frequently are compelled to compromise and accept that lack of connectivity in laptops. The Insignia 7-Port USB-C Hub is a handy tool for mitigating some of the connectivity deficiencies that has become the rule rather than the exception. The Insignia 7-Port Hub is compact. It measures approximately 4-5/8” x 1-7/8” x 5/8” thick. The case is mostly metal and the hub has a solid heft, weighing 3.5 ounces (102 grams). The hub connects to a laptop with a USB-C cable with a braided cover which is 6.5” long and permanently attached to the hub. On one long side of the Insignia 7-Port Hub are two USB-A 3.0 Ports (5 Gbps), 1 HDMI Port (4K 60Hz) and one USB-C Power Delivery Port (USB-PD) rated for up to 85 watt power delivery. The narrow end of the hub has a 1 Gbps Ethernet port. The other long side of the hub provides card slots for SD cards and Micro SD cards. The Insignia 7-Port USB-C Hub works reliably. I have used it with three Windows 11 laptops from different manufacturers, two Chromebooks and an Android tablet without any issues at all. Every device that I have connected to the Insignia 7-Port Hub are properly recognized and work without any difficulties. External DVD drives, external SSDs, USB drives all work as they are expected to. Likewise, the HDMI port worked without issues with a 4K monitor. The Insignia 7-Port USB-C Hub is not without shortcomings, however. The USB-C port cannot be used for data. It is exclusively for power delivery. The USB-A ports only support USB 3.0 at 5 Gbps. It would certainly be better if the USB ports supported USB 3.2, USB 4.0 and Thunderbolt 4. Overall, the Insignia 7-Port Hub is a convenient tool for having some additional needed connectivity with any laptop or tablet. It is compact and lightweight, works reliably and without any issues, and is OS agnostic.

    We purchased this device to replace several others of a different brand that continually failed. So far, it is operating perfectly well. It does run a little warm, but we have not had any issues. if I get the chance after we have had it for a while, I can update this review.

    Very good! I had an Anker hub but it didn’t have HDMI, so I got this one. Both are good, but this one has 1 HDMI port for projecting my tablet screen to my TV, 2 SD card ports (1 large and 1 small), 2 USB-A ports for my M&K, a USB-C power port which charges my tablet, a USB-C which plugs into my tablet, and an Ethernet port (if you use direct internet connection). Perfect for what I use it for daily. It gets a little hot, but I just turn my tablet brightness way down and it helps somewhat, and also keeps the tablet charged. Since the screen is duplicated on my TV, I do not really need my tablet screen to be bright once I plug it into the TV.

    Helps getting more functionality from a tablet

    I'm still using an S7 tablet from 2020 instead of a laptop when I travel. This is cheaper than upgrading to a new tablet, interfaces with my older tablet just fine after learning the trick (on the tablet), and gives me charging pass through and more USB functionality. I haven't tried the Ethernet yet since I'm usually on WiFi, using my phone as a hot spot, or using Bluetooth tethering for WiFi.

    Exactly what I needed for my new laptop that only has a c-hub. It is light and small enough to take with during my travels so I can utilize my PC with different connects like HMDI without having to purchase and carry multiple adapters. Really user friendly and provides get connect, a must buy if you ask me!
