There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
Everything is housed in a solid, glossy white, hard plastic chassis comprising the smallest footprint of any active/charge capable 7 port USB hub I have ever seen. Much smaller than I was expecting from the product photo. The device is powered by an external AC supply (wall wart) that attaches to the hub via your typical two pole female connector. The power connector itself is located on the top end of the chassis next to the USB input/output cable that connects the hub to your computer.
And Yes... as some of the whinier more anal reviewers have made abundantly clear to everyone, the AC adapter is one of the large ones and if you happen to own one of those odd power strips with the AC plugs aligned parallel to the row of female AC receptacles, then yes, this adapter is going to cover up several of the empty AC receptacles below where you plug this power supply in.
My suggestion to those who consider this to be a deal busting design flaw... How about buying a better power strip? One that is designed to work with a collection of AC power supplies? They even make some strips that have swiveling receptacles to allow you to configure your power strip to suit what you are plugging into it! Amazing what technology can do eh? Problem solved and disaster averted! For whatever reason, Anker has chosen to use that specific AC power supply, so I assume there must be a very good reason for its addition to the package.
So far I have been very pleased with the performance of the hub and have even done some hard drive backups through it using one of my Touro S Mini USB 3.0 hard drives just to see how the hub handled read and write to and from a 3.0 spec.hard drive. It performed just as fast as the dedicated USB 3.0 ports on my Macbook Pro do, so no complaints there.
All in all, I am very pleased with this sleek little USB hub and have been very pleased to confirm that we are most definitely getting the quality and performance we are paying for here. If you are looking for a sleek, small and well built USB 3.0 hub with some nice added display features, I think you have just found what you have been looking for! And as others have said, Anker appears to be an up and coming small component manufacturing company who is specializing in first class quality devices for just a little more $$ than your typical Chinese stuff everyone else is offering these days.
Original Review - Updated per above!
I actually really like the Anker hub I got, but, one of the ports is semi-flaky and doesn't seem to always make a good connection with several of my USB cables. It only seems to make a solid connection if I don't push the USB connector all the way in. That aside, It's one of the only powered hubs I've seen that doesn't appear to flake out when you plug more than one hard drive into it and it serves my needs well. It would be perfect if not for that one port that kinda flakes out and makes me have sad feelings.
Top reviews from other countries
The 7th USB port is the dedicated "charging port". With a quick test on my Samsung Galaxy Note8 the 7th port does NOT provide "Fast Charging" per say (it simply says "Charging"), However, the charging speed's are noticeably faster than traditional laptop USB hub charging. For example: Within about 10-20 Minutes of charging my Note8 went from 83% to 98%.
While charging quickly in the 7th USB hub the Note8 still connects to my laptop and I am able to transfer files like normal or even use SideSync to use the phone while working on my monitors.
The build quality is good, it has a nice matte texture/finish on the sides and bottom (a more rubbery feel) which ensures that this Hub will not slide around your desk or set up. The usb line is good enough for a laptop office set up but may be a bit on the short side for others. The power cable that is included as well is nice and long.
Total of 7 USB ports (7th being a charging port combo) is perfect for my needs.
Thank's to the Hubs dedicated power outlet plug I don't need to rely on my laptop's power.
I work on a lot of media content: blogging, write ups, video edits via Adobe PP/AE,and also Photoshop. My razerblade laptop become's quite hot during these sessions and so to have individually powered hubs helps me connect USB fan's and laptop coolers that help with temperatures as well as connecting a USB Ethernet adapter, my USB SD Card reader, and to quickly charge my phone all at the same time.
I highly recommend this product.
Having said that, I am currently looking into a unit that I can turn the power on and off for each port, this way I can just turn off the external drives when I want and leave the printers and charging ports working.
Ariel from Anker contacted me and I have to say that I was quite impressed with their Customer Service. She arranged for me to get a replacement unit within a couple of days and the replacement has been working fine since I received the unit. She followed up with me throughout the process in making sure that I got the unit and that the replacement was working without problems. I upgraded them to 4 stars because of their Customer Service. I would have given them 5 stars but I still would prefer to have the ability to turn off the different ports so that my external devices did not run all the time.
