USB-C Adapter Hub with HDMI, USB-3, Audio Out, MicroSD and SD | 8 in 1 Powered Microphone & Multi Adapter Compatible with Mac, PC and iPad | Super Fast | 1 Year Warranty

I use this with a 16" Mac Book Pro but have not tested the audio connection or the card readers.Pros: It's small and *very* light weight. If that's important for you, this is a great choice. The USB-A ports will run a bus-powered external mechanical drive with no issues. The HDMI port works fine with a clean image. The master USB-C plug makes a solid connection to my laptop. The blue LED looks cool. I mainly use it for standard USB accessories (dongle, mouse, ext drive, etc.) It's been pretty solid for me so far.Cons: It will not power an Apple USB SuperDrive disc burner / reader. I don't know if other bus-powered hubs have issues with those, (maybe they require more power) but this one will not power that, so that guy needs to be plugged in directly to my MBP with its own USB to USB-C adapter. It's very light weight - which is good - but it kinda slides around on your desk, and doesn't feel super sturdy. Seems like the bottom surface should have a rubber edge or something to help it stay put on your desk. Another review pointed out that the labels are upside down. It's probably more accurate to say that their logo was mistakenly (??) printed on the bottom instead of the top, as the USB ports seem to be oriented correctly, with their labels. My USB devices plug in right side up, with their labels facing up as they should. Not a big deal, but a QC detail that probably should've been caught. I assumed the logo would face up, and that made me plug it in upside down the first time, until I noticed the ports & labels oriented the other way.Overall a solid little hub, maybe a few bucks more than it should be, especially considering the little QC quirk. There's a lot of competition out there around $29 - $39. I appreciate that it's so small and light though, and it's easy to travel with. Editors Keys is a small-ish company based in England who makes clever products for audio & video people, so I didn't mind spending a little more for their hub over some mystery brand.

The media could not be loaded.  Pros: • data transfer seems to work great! • 3 legacy USB is awesome •SD/MircoSD are awesome • build quality feels good • not too hot, but it doesn’t get warmCons: • HDMI and power should be on the same side. My power cable is getting tweaked trying to wrap to the other side of the hub • plugging in head phones changes my screen settings and locks my volume: possible defect? • some lag or interference with Logitech mouse receiver: my mouse will lag and I’ll move further than I thought I did because of it.I was excited for this but in the end the head phone jack causing screen issues along with the power cable being tweaked makes it unusable for me.

A few issues. Headphone jack only plays left side and audio sounds terrible compared to headphone jack. Lag with Logitech mouse. Also power disconnects if my external drive is plugged in. Going to return in. Maybe mine is defective.

After less than 2 months of light use, where it did not leave my desk all three USBs are broken. Totally not worth the price, and of course it happened right after the return window closed. Very disappointed.

I got this on a whim when I saw a deal pop-up. Was a bit skeptical it would be great, but was worth the gamble... the gamble paid off. High quality hub with all of the ports I need PLUS it feels really solidly built. I especially like how it lights up on the end when it’s plugged in.

Editors Keys 🎹 is the best! Super slick, ultrafast USB, the blue light is a cool feature makes the desktop look great! An excellent choice for film editors and MacBook Pro users, makes for a cool stocking stuffer ☃️

Caused problems with computer, while connected it caused the screen to flash, as soon as this unit was removed and items reconnected without it the computer was fine.

Clever item

None of the USB ports or the SD card reader worked, I didn't even bother with the other ports and returned the product immediately.

This USB Hub adaptor from Editors Keys is a plug-in-and-play USB C hub that is fully functional and reaches the advertised technical specifications. The cable length is very short which is good for laptops as it doesn’t take up much room and can be easily thrown in a laptop bag. It’s very lightweight as it has an aluminium unibody that not only makes this hub more durable, but also allows it to dissipate heat more efficiently, especially as its rated to support the full USB PD 3.0 20 volts at 5 amps (which is 100 watts) of USB-C power delivery pass-thru. The anodised aluminium colour nearly matches my Space Grey MacBook Pro being just a shade or two darker.It features 3x USB 3.0 ports, separate Micro SD and SD Card readers (both can be used at a time and they support up to 480Mbps), 1x HDMI 1.4 output, 1x 3.5m audio output and a USB-C Power Delivery pass-thru port for charging your laptop. The HDMI Port is only using the 1.4 specification, meaning its maximum capable output is 4k at a 30Hz refresh. If you plan to use this hub with a 4k Monitor or TV, then the output will only be limited to 30Hz which is more than usable for basic operations, but not as smooth as your laptops main display. There are other alternatives that offer a full HDMI 2.0 spec output at 4k 60Hz. However, this hub is capable of a full 1080p 60hz output, so if 4k isn't important to you and you're sticking with 1080p this hub will be more than sufficient for 1080p HDMI video output. The hub is also bus powered as well so it does not require external power to function.One very strange omission is if you plug in some headphones into the dock it recognises it as a display instead of a separate USB DAC output. Another is that the tables for the I/O is printed upside down. I did notice the hub can start to get warm and even a little hot with everything plugged in at the same time, but this is due to the power delivery system, and the temperature drops when nothing is connected except power. After running a few data tests, I didn’t notice any significant speed decrease when using this hub as USB 3.0 provides plenty of bandwidth for most normal tasks.Overall, I like the fact it can support the full USB PD of 100 watts pass-thru, however adding an audio output that acts like a virtual display on Mac OS is very strange. Also, its important to consider if you're going to be hooking up a 4K display or not, as 4K 30Hz is a sub-par experience compared to 4K 60Hz. There are cheaper alternatives that will do the same job as well, which makes this harder to recommend.Thank you for reading my review, if you found it helpful feel free to let me know below.

This is a great little adaptor, it does exactly what it should. I connected it to the laptop, it connects via USB-C and it recognised it straight away, there are a lot of connection options, though personally one extra USB port would have been nice. One thing to mention is the HDMI port will only work if you laptop/computer is able to do HDMI via USB-C and not all can, so if this is a port you will use check that your computer is able to output a HDMI signal via it's USB-C port.The adaptor is well built with a metal construction apart from the fact that the port names are written upside down, what were they thinking? If you have the Editorkeys logo at the top then the ports labels below are just the wrong way up, its baffling how something could be so well made yet get something like this so fundamentally wrong. It's only a small niggle that does not effect the functionality but just gives the adaptor the feeling of a prototype rather than a finished product.I really like the light on the end which lights up when the adaptor is plugged in, it works nicely, it serves no purpose apart from letting you know it's plugged in but it made me smile.I have tried all the ports and all work well, no issues at all with any of them, there were also no heat issues when everything was plugged into the ports which is again really good to know.The one big downside though and something I find with a lot of these adaptors is the lead is quite short, if you have a laptop on a riser then it just tends to hand down and won't reach the desk, it's quite annoying and because the lead is attached you can swap for a different one. If only the lead could have been a little longer to enable the flexibility to place were you want on your desk, especially as there will be a lot of untidy wires going into this thing.A well built USB adaptor hub that works well with either a mistake or strange design choice on the port labelling and a very short cable.Pros:- All the ports and inputs work well- Computer recognised the adaptor first time- Well built with solid construction- Looks good with the blue light on the endCons:- Port labelling is upside down- Lead to computer is quite short
