Very reliable kit
I bought this before the lockdown started as my Lenovo Miix had very few ports. It provides power to the laptop as well as a two extra USB ports and a standard HDMI port, so you can connect it to a screen. I connected it to a 4K TV, a mouse and a keyboard and everything works fine. I have tried connecting the headset and webcam to the hub, and that works too, but bear in mind that the hub has only 2 USB's, so if you connect all that kit, you need to have 2 USB's on the computer in addition to the 2 on the hub (or buy a hub with more USB ports).During lockdown, my office replaced the Miix with a Thinkpad T490, which is a bit more powerful. Power supply on USB-C to the T490 works fine as well. Tip: check the Watt rating on the charger that comes with the computer. This hub is rated for 60W.I have now had this hub for 10 months and have been using it every day. It is a very reliable piece of kit and it is the only way I can connect all necessary working from home equipment. This small hub is an excellent buy.

A USB-C Hub worth the purchase
The Anker PowerExpand+ 7-in-1 USB-C PD Ethernet Hub is well built the metal outer case make the product feel premium which you get with all Anker products, as well as great value, you also do not need to have a power adapter attached to the hub to use it, the device is light compact allowing to be very portable allow you to take it with you, and comes with a nice travel pouch, excellent for using on the tv in your hotel room, or showing a presentation and need to connect projector or tv, the device is also good for productivity as in my case I use if with an iPad Pro and it allow me to connect all my external devices such as a USB microphone, external storage devices with ease.If you are looking for a USB-C Hub In my opinion you cannot go wrong with the Anker PowerExpand+ 7-in-1 USB-C PD Ethernet Hub, great value, great quality, with excellent flexibility on functionality a well worth purchase.

Reliable and all you need for daily use
If you need a reliable daily driver, this USB C hub is probably the best one to carry around especially if the computer you are using it only has Type C ports and a headphone jack. It is, in my opinion, a bit pricey in comparison to the other ones on Amazon, but it isn't as extortionate as the Belkin counterpart. I guess it's the price you pay for reliability. It does get noticeably warm after an hour (with all the ports being used) but nothing out of the ordinary. I wish it did have an extra USB A port, or another Type C port to use with other adapters and devices, thankfully it does have an ethernet port so it's one less adapter to carry around and is quite useful when it comes to places with slow internet or when you need to attach to a private network.

Macbook Air 2020 + Surface pro 7 Tested. Works as expected.
Bought this thing for my surface pro 7 and the thing is just super handy for these ultra-portable laptops with no darn ports.I have not used every single port at the same time but they do work individually. The main use was for connecting to an external monitor whilst charging at the same time through PD with a 60w USB-C charger.Has lived in my bag for over 2 years and has no sign of falling apart or failing.Also have used it with my Macbook air (2020) and considering that has no USB - A ports has been nice as a sort of light docking solution. Also worked on my Samsung note 9 and iPad mini.Do wish the cable was slightly longer so it could be further away from my laptop or that it could do 4k 60 but small gripes. Product is pretty much perfect.

Great little gizmo
This has made my writing/recording/editing process much simpler. I no longer have to make sure my laptop is fully charged when working away from home, I can connect to the mains as well as using headphones and an external Blue Yeti mic. What a difference. So glad I bought this. Thoroughly recommended. Good quality and good value.

Excellent USB-C Hub for Thinkpad X390
Short Version:- Good build quality, nice packaging, carry pouch is a nice touch.- Connects wired USB mouse, wired USB keyboard, HDMI monitor and ethernet without problems- Works (for the above) with or without laptop charger plugged into it.- With charger plugged in, powers and charges Thinkpad X390 (using 65w Lenovo charger)- Nice alternative to a larger, less portable dock- Anker customer service is excellentGripes:- I don't use the card reader, and would have another USB port or HDMI port in its placeI'm using this with a Thinkpad X390.In my setup, it connects a wired USB keyboard, wired USB mouse, an HDMI monitor and my ethernet network to the laptop.I wasn't certain from the description whether the product would power the laptop as well (but wasn't too worried as I have two USB-C ports, and figured, if it came to it, I would charge the laptop via one, and connect the hub via the other. It does charge and power the laptop via the PD socket though, using the 65w Lenovo charger supplied with this Thinkpad model.Taking the charger power cable out of the hub will briefly pause operation of the connected items, but they spring back into life without problems.UPDATE - this no longer happens - I'm not sure why, but operation of the connected peripherals continues uninterrupted if the charger power cable is removed or plugged in.As ever with Anker, the product arrives nicely packed, and has a reassuring, quality feel to it.The pass through charging works nicely with Lenovo's 65w charger, and the hub works whether plugged into the pass through charging or not. I use it as a more portable laptop dock, with only one thing to unplug should I need to move away from my desk. Using this also frees up the laptop's USB ports (previously taken up by the wired keyboard and mouse).Personally, I don't use the card readers - while it's sort of nice to have them available, more USB or HDMI capability would have been better, I think.In all, an excellent product.

They seem to last quite a while
I have used 2 of these for 3+ plus years and they are still working the same. The ethernet almost never cuts out. I only use the usb ports for mouse and keyboard and those work fine. Actually, a webcam also works well.What does not work very well is HDMI, it's definitely more choppy, looks like 30fps max.

Great product - very versatile
I have purchased several of these Amker hubs over the last year (3 total) and I really like them. They are well made and I have had no issues. I even bought one as a gift to give away.
