Great bit of kit, bit pricey but give me ethernet.
This is in all reasonable aspects a solid product. It does what it says on the tin, almost perfectly matches the space grey finish on the mac and even comes with a sleeve to protect it from scratches (or scratching other things, like the map, beware the sharp edges).Although this product is, in my opinion on the pricey side. As is with most apple products, you do get what you pay for. Its beautifully finished, has very tight tolerences and performes on all ports as advertised.I really, really wish it had an ethernet port. I've seen less known brands do this adapter with one and although I can't guarantee the quality will be Anker level, it's just such a nice port to have.I won't give it 4 stars as Anker doesn't promise an ethernet port and so it's 5 based on it being exactly what Anker said it is.

Just works effortlessly
I’m not one for writing reviews normally but this product is so handy for my Mac Air I can’t get over it. I carry it around in my work bag and use it both at work and at home. You can set up you Mac to work with the lid closed so it just sits on my desk looking great. I have a wireless keyboard and mouse through a usb fob and the monitor plugs straight into the hdmi slot. When it’s plugged into my laptop it also facilitates charging. I initial bought a Logitech version from Currys but I soon took this back. It was 3 times the price and didn’t work anywhere near as well (or look as good).

It's perfect for the Mac air M2
Brought this to replace a cheaper one that had a single usb c cable I'd brought that didn't last even a month. This sits nice and flush and allows me to charge while also connecting other devices and my HDMI for my monitor. It's a must have for hybrid working. Light and really well built. God send

Handy device
I take this with me wherever I go now. I love macbooks, but their downfall has always been their peripheral connectivity (part of the trade-off). Anyway, this fits well, is easy to use, has power passthrough, allows me to plug in my main monitor, but has also proved useful to bring with me on the go (streaming sites on the hotel TV? just pack this and a HDMI cable, you're sorted).I also hook mine up to a KVM, which again proves really useful for my home office setup. Highly recommend.Update: 9 months in, this device has stopped working as well as it used to. One of the USB-A ports has intermittent connection issues, meaning with just a very small touch everything that is connected via that port disconnects and reconnects. As this connects to a KVM for me, it's particularly annoying as the keyboard, mouse, headset and webcam all turn off and attempt to reconnect, messing with my device settings.Anker are sending me a replacement device, but good customer service doesn't really make up for a device lacking in longevity.

Great Anker quality
I love this adapter, fits really snug in the 2 USB C ports on my new MBP - once clipped in the two ports, it looks like it was part of the laptop. All ports on it (HDMI, SD, USB and USB C) feel solid and work a charm with my cables and devices.Superb ANKER quality that's well worth its price.The only thing worth mentioning is if you need to use an external CD drive or a hard drive that requires power, this thing won't give enough juice to the device. Other than that I love it!

Exactly as described
I got a new MacBook Air from work and discovered I could no longer plug in my beloved ergonomic mouse or curved screen! Works perfectly and not much else to say! Mouse connects and so does the monitor! Charges perfectly through the device too! Bargain at £29 on sale and from a trusted brand like Anker as well! Love that it matches bthe colour of the MacBook too! Still space to plug in other stuff which is good.

Fast transfer, easily dislodged
In terms of transfer rate this seems to work perfectly not making any impact on the rates experienced without it. It looks good plugged into the Macbook though everytime I read the boldly-printed "ANKER" I can't but hear a "W" before it. The only flaw is that it comes unattached very easily. If you move the laptop or cable or remove an SD card it is easy to lose connection with the devices attached. Maybe this is an unsolveable design issue and it's not a huge problem. Quite expensive for what it is but better value than if it were Apple.

Anker has never disappointed me!
So so pleased to have found this little contraption. I've only ever relied on Anker previously for power banks, cables and chargers so I was a bit sceptical about getting this but it works perfectly and the quality of the product exceeded my expectations. It has a nice weight to it and isn't flimsy so cheap like many hubs on here. What's even more ironic is that I had spend £90 on a hyperdrive duo 7-1 (same thing as this) after a lot of google searches as they're meant to be good hubs, has all the ports I need, well made and looks the part too. But the one I received was faulty and I sent it back. I quickly came on Amazon and found this. I wish I had just found this before, would've saved me a lot of hassle. It also comes with a soft close carry case. Kudos to you Anker, you've outdone yourself yet again.
