## Before you buy

- The listing gives charging figures of up to 85W and up to 100W pass-through, with the latter described as minus 15W for hub operation. Treat 85W as the stated maximum available to the connected device, and note that the manufacturer requires a 100W PD charger and cable. The listing also says the hub requires 15W, advises at least 45W for full-speed iPad Pro charging, and says it cannot provide pass-through charging to phones or tablets using their original chargers. Confirm host DP Alt Mode for video and DP 1.4 for 4K at 60Hz. Linux is stated as unsupported. The listing gives different model names, Anker 555 and PowerExpand 8-in-1, for the hub.

## A good fit for

- USB-C laptop users who need Ethernet, card-reader access and several data connections from one hub.
- Presentations or desk use with one HDMI display, provided the host supports DP Alt Mode and the required resolution and refresh rate.
- Users seeking pass-through charging while connecting peripherals, with a suitable 100W PD charger and cable.

## Less suited to

- Anyone needing video output from USB-C ports or support for more than one external monitor.
- Linux users, or buyers whose host lacks USB-C display output capability when HDMI video is required.
- People expecting the hub alone to include a charger or cable for pass-through charging.

## Customer feedback

Customer feedback highlights useful port availability and positive impressions of build quality, while experiences with power delivery, reliability, speed and value are mixed. Some customers report inadequate charging for a MacBook, heat and durability concerns, while others describe successful MacBook Air M1 use. These reports matter if the hub will be used for sustained charging or frequent travel. The stated 85W pass-through depends on an appropriately rated charger and cable, and the listing itself describes the hub as requiring 15W for operation.
- Positive themes: Customers appreciate the range of available ports and some describe the hub as well-built.
- Negative themes: Customers report heat and durability concerns. Some also say the hub stopped working properly.
- Mixed feedback: Power delivery, reliability, speed and value receive mixed feedback, including reports of insufficient MacBook charging and successful MacBook Air M1 use.

## Frequently asked questions

### Can this hub drive a monitor from its USB-C ports?
No. The listing specifies that HDMI is the only video output. The USB-C ports are for data or power input, not monitor display.
### Does it support 4K at 60Hz?
The listing claims up to 4K at 60Hz with a DP 1.4 laptop. With a DP 1.2 laptop, it lists up to 4K at 30Hz. The host must also support DP Alt Mode.
### What charger is needed for pass-through charging?
The manufacturer recommends a 100W Power Delivery charger and cable. It claims up to 85W pass-through to the connected device after allocating 15W for hub operation.
### Can it charge an iPad Pro or phone through its power input?
The listing says pass-through charging may not work for tablets or phones with their original wall charger. For full-speed iPad Pro charging, it specifies an adapter supporting at least 15V \(45W\).
