Note: usb type c hub for macbook pro is specially designed for MacBook Pro 2020/2019/2018/2017 and MacBook Air 2020/2019. It also lifts the Mini off the desk, and its built-in air vents help regulate temperature and encourage airflow.Equipped with 4K HDMI, thunderbolt 3 port, USB Type-C Port, 2 USB 3.0 port, Micro SD/SD Card Reader, this Macbook USB C hub is a great expansion for new MacBook Pro/Air that only have limited ports, certainty it's made your office or life much easier. The crucial point is that these points are front-facing, and not tucked around the back with the unwieldy and unsightly power supply.

(Note that you canвЂ™t charge devices connected to the USB ports, as they are there for syncing and data transfer only.)

SatechiвЂ™s Type-C Aluminum Stand & Hub for Mac Mini expands these capabilities with six ports: including a USB-C data port, three USB-A ports, micro/SD card readers, and another 3.5mm headphone jack port. That sounds like a lot, but Apple accessory specialist Satechi believes the Mini needs maxing. The latest models boast two Thunderbolt 3 / USB4 (fast USB-C) ports, two old-school USB-A ports, HDMI 2.0, Gigabit Ethernet, and 3.5mm headphone jack. The Mac Mini, youвЂ™d think, has an army of ports in comparison to AppleвЂ™s laptops. We tend to think of hubs for laptops, such as AppleвЂ™s MacBooks, which lack more than one or two USB-C ports and so require a dock to add further devices. This is the only docking station with Qi wireless charging for your iPhone.

ThereвЂ™s also no USB-C port, so if your laptop only has the one port then you wonвЂ™t be able to use this dock along with any other USB-C accessories. The big downside is that this is very much a desk dock вЂ“ it wonвЂ™t function at all unless plugged into the mains, so you canвЂ™t use it on the go, meaning itвЂ™s more for beefing up your MacBook at your desk. The whole things feels solid but slick, a perfect match for your Apple gear. The main body is aluminium, with a soft fabric and rubber top to keep any charging devices from slipping around. Best of all, the top of the dock is also a 15W wireless Qi charger вЂ“ above the max charging capacity of the latest iPhones. There are dual USB-A 3.1 ports, along with Gigabit Ethernet and HDMI on the other, and it supports USB-C PD passthrough charging (60W), so it will double as the charger for your MacBook. If you donвЂ™t mind spending a little more, the Symbus Q dock from Moshi offers a lot of functionality in a seriously slick package вЂ“ it just doesnвЂ™t come cheap. Most of the products tested here work with non-Apple USB-C laptops too, but you can read Tech AdvisorвЂ™s more general roundup of the bestВ USB-C hubs. You can also buy USB-C adapters for the many display standards out there, such as VGA and DVI. You can certainly use a charger at lower power, but remember that it will power up slower than when using a higher-wattage charger, and if too low your laptop might run out of juice altogether when maxed out on power-hungry apps and devices.

12in MacBook and MacBook Air charge at 30W the 13in MacBook Pro at 61W, the 15in MacBook Pro at 87W and the 16in MacBook Pro at 96W. Look for hubs that offer passthrough charging, so you can charge your laptop even though you are using up one of the laptopвЂ™s USB-C ports.

Other ports to look for include Gigabit Ethernet for faster wired Internet access (without the flakiness of Wi-Fi), and an SD or microSD card reader for adding inexpensive portable storage to your system.
