WELL ANKER PROVED ME WRONG
THIS IS AN EDITED REVIEW: The original item I received appeared to be defective and Anker asked to send me a new one, which I accepted hesitently and it worked as expected. Well done Anker, few companies today would make sure that the customer is satisfied like you did.I like a clean desk and clean lines, I also bought myself a new Apple MacBook Air and the lack of ports sent me looking for a hub for all the items I looked to plug in.Looking for in purchase:-Sturdy-Value-USB 3.0 (at a minimum)-Long CordDesign: The Anker USB C Hub to 4 USB 3.0 has a sleek and clean look. The metallic grey works great with the MacBooks and the slim design is great for hiding it underneath a desk.Issues: When I checked the transfer speeds of the devices plugged in they were well below the USB 3.0 speeds and the up to 5GB that was advertised with the item. (Anker sent a new one and I believe that it was just a defective unit)Cost: $17.99Positives:++Material++Look++Design++Build Quality++Cost++Transfer speeds (on the second one)Negatives:--Slow transfer speeds (on the first one)Final Thoughts: I did reach out to the company and they offered two solutions. One that I plug the item in faster, which caught me off guard that the speed I physically plug something in could affect the transfer rate. (Yes, I confirmed that they meant to plug the item in faster). The other solution was that they would send me a new item, which I did take them up on and the new item worked with zero issue. It transferred at top speed and worked perfectly with both an SD Card reader and a SSD enclosure (among other things). I will say I wish it had USB-C ports but, they never claimed that it did so no knock for that. I love the cord length and all and all works great.Would I recommend: Absolutely I would. This is a great product and the company stands behind the item, that is rare in today’s world.Ver másVer menos
