I Tested 12 Different USB-C Hubs – Here Are My Top 5
I Tested 12 Different USB-C Hubs – Here Are My Top 5
So I bought 12 of Amazon’s most popular USB-C hubs. And here’s the thing…the highest rated ones on Amazon, performed the worst. The best USB-C hub is going to cost a few more dollars that the top rated Amazon ones BUT you’re getting so much more functionality out of them!
Here are the Top 5 USB-C Hubs (w/ Amazon affiliate links):
1. UGreen Revodok Pro 7 in 1 – https://mreh.ca/4bz4ff6
2. Benfei USB-C Hub 7 in 1 – https://mreh.ca/49ruceA
3. Anker 553 PowerExpand+USB-C 8 in 1 Hub – https://mreh.ca/4bwjIMQ
4. Anker PowerExpand+ USB-C 7 in 1 Hub – https://mreh.ca/3HRNiia
5. Zmuipng USB-C Hub Multiport Adapter 9 in 1 Hub – https://mreh.ca/3HTCb8p

5. Zmuipng USB-C Hub Multiport Adapter 9 in 1 Hub – https://mreh.ca/3HTCb8p
-Among the top 5 tested, with significant drawbacks.
-Slowest charging speed, failing to charge a MacBook Pro in Game mode and losing charge despite claims of 100W (effective 87W after hub consumption).
-Overheats at 110°F, the highest in the test group.
-Below-average USB 3 data transfer speeds.
-Redeeming features include two USB-C ports for data and charging, avoiding the “hanging dock look” due to a longer cable.
4. Anker PowerExpand+ USB-C 7 in 1 Hub – https://mreh.ca/3HRNiia
-Considered the bare minimum standard for USB-C hubs.
-Larger size with 7 ports but below-average USB 3 port performance and inadequate iPhone charging in demanding conditions.
-Main advantage: decent SD and MicroSD card transfer speeds, despite not fully supporting SDXC2 speeds.
3. Anker 553 PowerExpand+USB-C 8 in 1 Hub – https://mreh.ca/4bwjIMQ
-Superior to the 7-in-1 model in almost every aspect.
-Priced higher at $50, which may deter budget-conscious buyers.
-Slightly slower flow-through charging.
-Highlights include top 3 SD card reading speeds, fast USB 3.0 data transfer, quicker charging through ports, and a metallic cover for a premium feel. Comes with a carrying bag.
2. Benfei USB-C Hub 7 in 1 – https://mreh.ca/49ruceA
-Surprisingly high performer for its price, making it the best budget option.
-Performs averagely well in most tests except for poor SD card reader speeds.
-Suitable for those needing basic peripheral connectivity without high demands on SD card usage.
1. UGreen Revodok Pro 7 in 1 – https://mreh.ca/4bz4ff6
-The best overall based on comprehensive criteria.
-Heavier than average but lacks an ethernet port.
-Average SD card reader speeds but excels with a longer connection cable, significantly faster USB A port data transfer speeds (800 mb/s), and 25% faster charging through USB A ports.
-Unique for having a second USB-C port, a rare feature among tested hubs.

Thank you for the information. I need a hub for tethering. I just want ethernet and power output. Do you have anything in suggestion?
What the dog doin?
Bless this man. He’s reviewing everything. Helping me make a purchase. Legend.
I knew this was going to end with Ugreen. Those guys really seem to be taking over.
What about u green uno ??
Thanks!
Are there any out there that have more than 2 type c ports? I have one with two but one of them is to charge only
Can the usb c ports on that u green hub be used to charge other devices?
Hello! Have you tried the PowerExpand 11-in-1? If so, I wanted to know your thoughts on it. It’s good to see someone actually reviewing hubs because I’ve had terrible luck finding a good quality one, especially one that offers comparable performance between my Galaxy Tab S9 and laptop. I like the 11 in 1 because it has a headphone jack. I’m going to assume its terrible, but as long as its serviceable I wouldn’t mind biting. It’s just insanely expensive so I wasn’t sure if it was worth my money or if I should go elsewhere.
First, love your reviews, thank you.
However, can you update your content on the USB-C hubs because a lot of updates have come out in the past year and I want to buy through your links but not sure which of the newer versions (e.g., Anker 855 vs 853) to purchase.
Kudos!
whats the best for conecting multiple external hdd?
I found a company called strex euhm.does this one work 4 a chromecast i love to know srry i dont wanne annoy u with this
I like your review, and I tried to use your affiliate link, but the Ugreen 7-in-1 links to the wrong item. The only one I found that has 2 USB-C data ports (not 1 data/1 power) has HDMI ports on it and looks nothing like yours. I’m cautious to assume they all perform like yours.

Pretty sure that dog is dead…..
he’s right , the sd card reader for all these are super slow
How about charging cords?
im sure biden and pelosi isnt as smart as your dog.
The dog is more attentive than I’ve ever been for any YouTube video.
Does those hubs works on Smartphone, especially the charging feature?
Love your dog!!
Love your review style. Keep it going. One thing though… the link to the ugreen 7-1 is not going to the specific model you reviewed. 2-usb-c and as card reader??
just the perfect video
Wished more info was giving regarding the products to support this guy by buying on amazon because the links don’t send you to a product each one has like 20 with similar names or seemingly duplicates i just cant find the one like this
I’m trying to find a product for travel that has a usb plug so I can plug it into a wall charger no matter which country I’m in . I need to charge at least 2 usb and 2 usb – c products with only 1 plug available. We do a lot of hiking and stay in dorms so often we don’t have access to multiple wall plugs and we need something as light as possible.
loosen that tie
There are way better options, why the f you recommend in your top 5 outdated and trash option? We are 2025 how the f you can suggest something less than HDMI 2.1 4k 60fps, less that 100w passthrough, uhs-ii SD card speeds, USB 3.2 gen 2, those specs must be the absolute minimum requirment, omg, this chineses brands pay you?
I thought the dog was a taxidermy for like a whole minute lmao
Doggy paid attention all time
Hello. I need usb-c hub but only with usb-c ports i dont need another ports. something worth recommending?
Just bought the Ugreen 100w 7 in 1 adapter you showed in your video. Other than the 4K 30hz HDMI (which is moot for me as I’m hooking my Galaxy S23 Ultra 512GB to an LG 27in. 1080p 144hz monitor to use Dex), everything on this adapter works really good. And for the 27$ I spent on amazon for it, it really is a great deal for the money. Many thanks for your honest review!!
Hi all. Can I ask a question. I have a Lenovo ThinkPad T14 laptop and it is charging with Type-C charger which comes with the laptop itself. I want to make some adjustments to my desk setup and I am wondering one thing – can I charge my laptop through all USB-C Hubs? How can I be sure that I can charge it through? I want to make sure that I don’t buy something that won’t be usefull. What should I look for? I don’t want to spend a lot of money for some expensive Docking station, but I want a device where I can plug my monitor (HDMI), my mouse and keyboard (2-3 USBs) and the charger of my laptop, so that, I can just plug 1 type C cable(the one from the HUB) to my laptop, and everything to work. Please help me, I am not really sure what to look for.
Your dog is very trained. He looks like he is very interested…. Great…
Trying to use my 2022 iPad Pro with two HDMI external monitors, any recommendations?
I have Ipad 10 generation i want to be able to charge ipad and use ipad 10 ear pads at the same time can you advise thank you
Love the review. Your puppy so cute.
The dog is too still
Some of these crappy ones really suck… If you touch anything metal plugged into them, they’ll reset the USB audio interface… I need one that works and is consistent. I hope I can find one in this vid
Came for the review and subscribed for your wonderful doggo.
what about the hyperdrive usb c hub? did you test it??
How do you use the pd charging?
Which one would you recommend using as a Thunderbolt adapter between my Macbook Pro and monitor via USB-C/thunderbolt? I have to offices with similar LG-monitors and want an adapter to hook up my computer via a single USB-c cable.
I have a question can you answer?I have usb hub ugreen When I connect it to the phone and connect the mouse It doesn’t work. What’s the reason?I connected other devices and they work without any problem.But the mouse does not work
7:34 … these guys had it by accident
ur dog has more intelligence stat points than nancy pelosi and biden.
I liked the review, actually bought the Ugreen 9-1, but it didn’t worked, it simply didn’t do anything, however I wrote to them and I called them multiple times and no response, kind of disappointed with their customer service, thanks for the video anyway.
awesome! entertaining, funny and useful info!
the dog is killing mee
The cheapest Ugreen Hub should be the best ?! i think you might be sponsored
