USB Hub 3.0, VIENON 7-Port USB Data Hub Splitter for Laptop, PC, MacBook, Mac Pro, Mac mini, iMac, Surface Pro and More USB Devices

I needed this product for my older laptop that had 3 USB ports but 1 burned out. The laptop does not have built in WIFI capabilities. I couldn't use my wired mouse, WIFI adapter and my camera with 2 USB port. I purchased this to see if I can streamline things. The item works perfectly. It is a little warm but not hot upon use. It has a blue light confirming that the connection to my laptop is working. The cord could have been a bit long but it's not really a huge problem. My WIFI adapter, wired mouse and camera all work perfectly. I can even connect a USB speaker to my laptop when I want to listen to something and increase the value. It is worth the money in my opinion.

First off, just like fellow Amazon shoppers when looking at items, I look for value and products that are favorably reviewed.To my surprise this morning 2/23/2024, the USB hub (Delivered to me on 1/20/2024, the return closing window was unfortunately 2/19/2024) just stopped working for no apparent reason.Bear in mind I do understand that electronics in general do and will go bad, but seriously, more or less 30 days?On with the specifics. The usb hub functioned well from 1/20 up to 2/23. The hub was undisturbed, well placed/ free of any dust, bumps, falls etc.I tried all troubleshooting methods to my knowledge in order to isolate what the issue may be. Uninstalling and reinstalling usb drive thinking it was a port issue on my laptop, trying on different usb ports, using a 5V power adapter to power the hub in case it wasn’t drawing enough voltage from the laptop etc.Bottom line all results ended up repeating itself.The hub itself is the problem where it will completely disconnects after 1-5 minutes with or without activity and with or without an external 5V power adapter and never reconnect; unless unplugged from the usb port in the laptop and plugged back in where this pattern continues to reoccur.For reference, I don’t have high consumption/voltage devices plugged in the hub. I have two charging cables, 1 for a Bluetooth keyboard, 1 for a Bluetooth mouse and 2 wireless receivers for game controllers.All in all, the hub is now useless where I cannot return to Amazon and get a refund because the return window has closed 4 days ago. I guess I just was unlucky and received a bad usb hub as so many reviews seemed positive, but to future buyers, I would advise to avoid this hub and look to into another hub that is available here on Amazon that is still simple but Reliable, where it has a track record of least returned by customers here on Amazon.Hope this feedback was informative to anyone.

For some reason, all laptop manufactures have decided to reduce the number of USB ports. Maybe it is because the public doesn't want to pay another $185 for a few more ports that would cost the manufacturer another 35 cents to install. For what ever the reason, if you are USB dependent for everything, like I am, you are doing a lot of musical chairs with your devices. After purchasing a few rubbish USB busses, I found this little beauty. This bus is exactly as it appears. All connections firm and reassuring; so slop. The quality of both the performance and the materials seem to be excellent; only time will tell. This is a bargain; I hope that, if you decide to purchase it, you will agree.

Me gusto el producto pero trae un orificio para cargador y no lo incluye. De todo lo demás esta bien le caben 7 usb

I wanted to use this to have multiple plant lights all plugged in to the same thing to turn them all on and off together, but it doesn’t have the power capacity for that and turning on one light dimmed all the others. That said—it still works as a usb hub if your usb things have their own power supplies.

I have an aluminum 4-port USB adapter I bought YEARS ago on Amazon, but it gets filled up with devices (keyboard, mouse...) too quickly. I thought this 7-port adapter would give me more USB real estate, but I discovered today on delivery it won't work with at least some USB flash drives. I tried using a Samsung 128GB flash drive with it and neither Mac OS nor Windows will recognize the Samsung flash drive. To be transparent, I'm using the Samsung USB-A micro-SD card insert storage device that lets you switch out micro-SD cards. My USB 2.0 devices (keyboard, wireless mouse dongle) work fine as does a standard Samsung USB-A 128 GB flash drive. But micro-SD cards don't work with this even if they're in a USB-A interface. Caveat Emptor. Minus one star.Buyers should also know this USB hub has a garish, bright blue light when it's on that blazes across a dark room. No way to turn it off. Have to use sticky, ugly tape to cover it up. Minus another star.Very quickly, I got error messages that the hub had spontaneously disconnected from my machines (Mac, Windows). Then the hub would reconnect. Then cycle over disconnected/reconnected over and over again, threatening integrity of data during any copying from laptops to attached thumb drives. Unsafe. Minus two stars!Lastly, this USB storage unit is all plastic. Doesn't bode well for longevity and is even worse for picking up gooey residue from tape used to occlude the bright blue alert light. To say nothing of the environmental costs of yet more cheap plastic that'll enter the ocean or landfills when this unit finally fails. Minus yet another star.Unsafe drive (threatens data loss due to unstable connectivity). Garish blue light you can't turn off. Cheap plastic. Doesn't work with micro-SD cards in USB readers. We returned.

Gave as a gift for some fans I bought that needed the 7 ports and they loved it.
