UGREEN 50985 4-Port USB 3.0 Hub

The UGREEN 50985 USB hub expands one USB connection into four USB 3.0 ports for peripherals such as keyboards, mice, flash drives and card readers. Its separate USB-C socket is for power only, not data or video, so it does not add USB-C connectivity for peripherals or a display.

What to know before buying

Listing details to confirm

Listing details are inconsistent: the title describes a five-in-one hub with 5V/2.4A PD, while the feature text and box list specify four USB 3.0 data ports and a power-only USB-C socket, with one feature passage stating 5V/2A. The stated 5-port total does not explain the fifth connection. A laptop/PC compatibility highlight mentions a keyboard and mouse, but the explicit contents list names only the hub, so those accessories are unconfirmed. Check the selected listing if the exact port count, power rating or bundle matters.

Who is it for?

A good fit for

  • Laptop or desktop users who need several USB-A connections for lower-power peripherals such as a keyboard, mouse, flash drive or card reader.
  • People seeking a compact hub for travel or a home-office desk, rather than a display adapter or USB-C data hub.

Less suited to

  • Users who need USB-C data transfer or video output from the hub.
  • Buyers who need assured power for larger external hard drives without checking the drive's power requirements and the hub's performance for that setup.

Customer feedback highlights functionality, port flexibility, easy setup, portability and a slim design, including reported use with PS4 and multiple USB devices. However, feedback on power is mixed, with some customers saying larger USB hard drives do not receive enough. That concern is relevant because the hub has a separate power input, but the listing's stated power details are inconsistent and do not establish compatibility with every drive. The overall rating distribution is mostly positive, while a smaller share of ratings are lower.

Positive themes

  • Customers report straightforward setup and useful connections for multiple devices.
  • Feedback praises the hub's portability and slim design.

Mixed feedback

  • Power feedback is mixed, with reports that larger USB hard drives may not receive enough power.

Frequently asked questions

How many USB data ports does the hub have?

The feature text and explicit contents list describe four USB 3.0 data ports. The listing also gives a total port count of five, but does not clearly account for the extra connection.

Can the USB-C socket connect a device or monitor?

No. The listing says the USB-C port is for power only and does not support data transfer or video transmission.

Does the hub supply enough power for an external hard drive?

The listing describes an additional power input, but customer feedback reports mixed results with larger USB hard drives. Suitability depends on the drive and power arrangement.

What is included in the box?

The explicit box contents list names a USB 3.0 hub with four USB ports. Keyboard and mouse appear in a product highlight, but are not confirmed in that contents list.
