I Tested 12 Different USB-C Hubs – Here Are My Top 5

So I bought 12 of Amazon’s most popular USB-C hubs. And here’s the thing…the highest rated ones on Amazon, performed the worst. The best USB-C hub is going to cost a few more dollars that the top rated Amazon ones BUT you’re getting so much more functionality out of them!

Here are the Top 5 USB-C Hubs (w/ Amazon affiliate links):

1. UGreen Revodok Pro 7 in 1 –
2. Benfei USB-C Hub 7 in 1 –
3. Anker 553 PowerExpand+USB-C 8 in 1 Hub –
4. Anker PowerExpand+ USB-C 7 in 1 Hub –

5. Zmuipng USB-C Hub Multiport Adapter 9 in 1 Hub –
-Among the top 5 tested, with significant drawbacks.
-Slowest charging speed, failing to charge a MacBook Pro in Game mode and losing charge despite claims of 100W (effective 87W after hub consumption).
-Overheats at 110°F, the highest in the test group.
-Below-average USB 3 data transfer speeds.
-Redeeming features include two USB-C ports for data and charging, avoiding the “hanging dock look” due to a longer cable.

4. Anker PowerExpand+ USB-C 7 in 1 Hub –

-Considered the bare minimum standard for USB-C hubs.
-Larger size with 7 ports but below-average USB 3 port performance and inadequate iPhone charging in demanding conditions.
-Main advantage: decent SD and MicroSD card transfer speeds, despite not fully supporting SDXC2 speeds.

3. Anker 553 PowerExpand+USB-C 8 in 1 Hub –

-Superior to the 7-in-1 model in almost every aspect.
-Priced higher at $50, which may deter budget-conscious buyers.
-Slightly slower flow-through charging.
-Highlights include top 3 SD card reading speeds, fast USB 3.0 data transfer, quicker charging through ports, and a metallic cover for a premium feel. Comes with a carrying bag.

2. Benfei USB-C Hub 7 in 1 –
-Surprisingly high performer for its price, making it the best budget option.
-Performs averagely well in most tests except for poor SD card reader speeds.
-Suitable for those needing basic peripheral connectivity without high demands on SD card usage.

1. UGreen Revodok Pro 7 in 1 –
-The best overall based on comprehensive criteria.
-Heavier than average but lacks an ethernet port.
-Average SD card reader speeds but excels with a longer connection cable, significantly faster USB A port data transfer speeds (800 mb/s), and 25% faster charging through USB A ports.
-Unique for having a second USB-C port, a rare feature among tested hubs.

  1. Me ajude? MacBook 2017 e nele Eu uso o SERATO DJ como controlador do mixer Rane (USB) + saída hdmi para ligar em um painel de Led (que o serato sincroniza o vídeo com a música + o conector de energia do Mac e estou tendo problemas de aquecimento, qual hub seria o mais indicado???

  2. which is the best usb c to usb c port hubs with min 500mb/s data transfer speeds. i tried ugreen 5 in 1 where 1 port is a input 100w charging port and the other 4 were a 10gb/s ports but these 4 when i tried my kingston xs2000 ssd the transfer speed i got was just 30 to 40 mb/s where as if i directly connect it to my computer it gives me a minimum of 550mb/s transfer speeds. can u recommend which usb c hub right now that i can buy with such high speeds

  3. I’ve lost count how many I’ve purchased and sent back which keep losing connection every so often! It’s driving me up the wall…any recommendations for a hub which has 2 USB and 2 USB-C ports which also charge devices
