Having recently bought a M4 Mac Mini, a fantastic little computer but lacking any USB-A ports. I needed a way to connect up my multiple external USB devices. My old hub was USB-A powered, and I did not want to use an adapter to plug into the USB-C only Mac. I was hoping to find a hub with both USB and USB-C outlets, but I could not find one with enough USB ports which also featured USB-C. So I decided on this one, which has a combined USB 3.0 and USB-C input and 10 USB 3.0 ports. It is externally powered and features switchable backlit ports. No driver software is needed.

In the box I received the hub and a 3.3ft cable with a combined USB-C and USB 3.0 plug on one end and a USB-B plug to connect into the hub itself. The hub itself is made from aluminium alloy, and both it and the cable feel robust and well made. Annoyingly, no user guide or information sheet was included.

The 10 ports each have an individual power button with a large and very bright blue LED to the side with light spill seeming to illuminate the USB port itself when viewed from certain angles, and due to this, it is sometimes hard to tell if switches are on or off. The supplied UK power adapter is needed for power hungry USB devices but simple data transfers do not need it, and the power cable can be left unplugged. This leads us to a minor issue with the device. When the computer to which it is attached is turned off all the hub LEDs remain lit - and at night this can be very bright indeed - unless the hub is disconnected from mains power.

The USB 3.0 hub supports data transfer speeds of up to 5 Gbps, which I presume to mean to each port, which is respectable enough but by no means blazing fast.

So that really is it. I have seen cheaper rivals but this one works well, is nicely made and looks good. At the current price of £24.29 it is not a bad buy if you do not mind the always on LEDs.
