HyperDrive USB C Hub, NET 6-in-2 for MacBook Pro Air, Multi-Port USB-C Dongle w/Gigabit Ethernet, 40Gbps/100W PD, 5Gbps/60W PD, 4K30Hz HDMI

Super convenient and works like a charm. I keep my mouse plugged into it and it does great for charging. This is my second one, but it took four years to wear out so I'd say definitely worth it, especially if you are hard on your electronic gadgets.

I purchased this hub to use with my new MacBook Pro, and I must say, it's fantastic. The build quality is excellent, and it even looks like Apple made it with a similar material feel and color. The port options are fantastic, and I love that there are several permutations of this dock to fit various needs. I chose this one since it has the ethernet port, which also works great. I do worry a bit about the durability of that port as it is plastic unlike the rest of the dock which is aluminum. The only complaint I have is that the hub is a little thinner than my computer which means when sitting on a desk there is some space below it for it to flex and put some stress on the ports. I read another review where the user added rubber feet and I've elected to do the same.

Pros: I've been using this hub for about a month now, and have left it plugged into my 16-inch MacBook Pro all that time. I've tested all the ports, and they work as advertized. I haven't been able to test USB 3 speeds, but the USB 2 thumb drive works identically whether connected to the hub, or connected to an Apple Thunderbolt - USB dongle.This will work on either side of the MacBook, taking up the two ports on that side, but since you get one 100W Thunderbolt port, this is not an issue. The second Thunderbolt port is 60W. The hub doesn't make contact with the desk while plugged in, but this is a bonus because the Gigabit port has a trap door that must be raised before you can plug a cable in. Because the hub doesn't fit flush to the table, it means you can use the Ethernet port regardless of which side the hub is plugged into.It is a good, but not perfect color match for the space gray MacBook. It appears to be a shade darker.Cons: The device ships with virtually no documentation. The product description on Amazon is more thorough than what comes with the device. It is pretty easy to accidentally pull the hub out when the HDMI cable is connected, causing disruptions with the video out. I suspect that's true of any of these types of hubs. If you plug it into the right side, it completely covers the headphone port. It's also pricey, costing twice what a lot of other hubs cost. As advertized, the USB ports cannot run a SuperDrive, nor can they charge an iPad. So I still really need a Thunderbolt - USB dongle.

The Hyper Drive is one fantastic product that is well built, small, very portable, and eliminates the need for several adaptors that would be required to allow one to use the new Mac type C ports. All 4 ports on my new MacBook Pro are type C which will not connect to any of my other hardware. This little jewel fixes all that and eliminate a lot of wires and adapters that otherwise would be required. Took it out of the box, connedted it to my Mac and everything worked fine. Love it.

My desired setup is to be able to run two monitors out and an ethernet cable in to the left side of my macbook pro. This device can do that, but there are two problems that make it functionally useless iMO.One, I can get the two monitors and ethernet to work, but it seems like aside from the first time I plugged it in, I had to unplug everything and plug in my usb- monitor, then my hdmi-powered monitor, then the ethernet cable. So it works, technically, but having to do it that way to get it to work at all seems peculiar at best and a waste of time at worst. I also tried running both monitors out through the two usb-c ports (instead of one usb-c, one hdmi) but that never worked successfully.Two, there was no telling when it would actually power both monitors or just one. So even following various routines of plugging things in one at a time, there was really no rhyme or reason to why it sometimes works and sometimes doesn't.I'm going to return this and continue looking for a device that can make this happen.

Everything about the hyperdrive is great. Tested and works well, well built, and looks good. My only gripe is that I wanted the Silver version and there was no way to choose when I bought on Amazon. You can choose the color through the Hypershop, but not here. It was very difficult to see what exact color this was and it didn't cross my mind until after I received the item. Until Hyper or Amazon updates their inventory with Silver - beware, you will get a Space Gray colored one.

It is very well made and seems to be solid. It's great to be able to run 2 extra monitors and a CD drive. It comes with a little pouch that you can pack it and take it on your travels. This is made for the left side USB-C plugs.I wish they had it for the right side also.

I’ve used this now for several days with my MacBook Pro. It works fine for my purposes. I use it mostly for my external monitor through the HDMI input and for my digital audio device which requires Thunderbolt 2. The connection is solid. You just have to make sure you push it in all the way. It won’t go in all the way if you have a protective case on the base of your laptop.
