j5create does it again, this product works well and with no fuss. Ethernet is gigabit (1000mbps) and the length of the USB-C cable makes it easy to scoot around. I'm a little disappointed by the amount of USB ports on this device, but considering other products with more USB ports work less reliably, it might be for a reason. Plug and play with this product, and it's excellent.

I used this with a Lenovo Yoga 720. I haven't run this device fully through the paces yet, but haven't run into any problems yet, I use it for connecting an external monitor, and for that, the power it receives from the computer is fine, but it seems from other reviews that if you want to to use more than one function at a time with this, you have to find another power source (which it doesn't come with). So if, for example, you wanted to use an external monitor andthe usb connections, you would need to plug into a USB-C power source that you buy separately. At the writing of this review, these are not readily available at a cheap price. I feel that if they are going to advertise it as doing a bunch of stuff,then it should come with all the parts to do so, so I took it down a star.

Hello, Thanks for your feedback on the adapter. It is compatible with most laptops that have a USB-C port with the display port alternate mode feature. Specifically the HDMI port requires the USB-C port with display port alternate mode. That may be the limitation that you are encountering with connecting the adapter to your phone. If you have any questions about the specifications or compatibility of our products you can contact our customer service team and they will be happy to assist you. Our contact information is on the product packaging and on our website. Thank you, j5create

Portable, lightweight, and does the job. Note that for HDMI and USB, it's plug-and-play; for the Ethernet, you need to do some driver pre-loading from the j5create website first. In spite of the instructions, I'd recommend calling the j5create customer service - it's just easier that way.

This works well, particularly for the super slim laptops (like Lenovo or Surface Pro) that have limited external port. On the expensive side, but I have two and both work very well.

After purchasing a new MacBook Pro 15" with toucher I needed a way to connect my "pro" device to a mouse, keyboard and monitor. Sadly, the computer only came with USB-C ports so I checked out J5 Create's option. It took a bit of work as you must download the latest firmware for the adaptor to fully work, but I get clear pictures on my IPS monitor and quick ethernet connections. Because the ethernet hardware is outside the laptop, the mac address for my ethernet connection is static to the device, so I have one of these at work and one at home. Should I swap them by mistake, I would loose my security overrides at work. This is something to keep in mind if using for a dedicated IP assignment and you loose the device.

Bought this to go with my Mac so I could have extra USB ports and HDMI outlet. Works well only thing I notice is it does seem to get a little warm to the touch but hasn't seemed to affect the use of it.

This was a good option for extending the USB ports on my new Lenovo Yoga 910 laptop. Does what I need it to do so that I can charge and still have USB port to charge my phone and keep the dedicated USB port for the USB mouse.
It is also nice to have HDMI adapter with this.
It would be even better if it weren't so expensive!

This hub, hdmi and ethernet adapter works perfectly. Not one issue. The size is small enough to fit in a suit pocket. The only complaint, and it has no adverse affect on the device or laptop, is that my HP Spectre laptop complains that the charging unit is not HP (which it is) when plugged through the device.

Works Perfectly, but 4K60 Support Is Lacking

I used this as a travel adapter for my Surface Book 2, while it works great, it wont drive my 4k monitors at 60hz where ever I'm at. Recently upgraded my monitor setup to a single Vizio P55-F1 monitor and it will only do 4k @ 30hz which while not terrible, makes things just a little too slow for my tastes. If you have WQHD moditors 3840x1440 etc. It's works great, but anything higher seems to lock down at 30hz. Ethernet speeds are full gigabit with no slowdowns, and the USB ports perform as expected. This does support pass through USB-C charging, but typically I use my power brick regardless due to the higher end nature of my laptops that I own.

Hi, This adapter is a great way to hook up a monitor or TV to a laptop without a video port. Streaming over a wired network connection will allow you to have better picture quality and less buffering time. It’s great to hear that the adapter worked out for you. Thank you, j5create
