Great little all in one stand/hub from a reputable brand. I’ve just purchased one so I can’t speak too much on it but from what I’ve seen online, it’s a solid little unit. Little pricey but this is a decent deal. Usually it’s around $180. And RRP is $99 USD in the states. Also being USB-C it will plug into anything not just an iPad or other tablets, so could act as a handy USB-C hub in a pinch if you needed a card reader etc. The HDMI port is 4k @ 60hz too which is great.

    would like to know how it tastes

      Like a foil covered chocolate egg but harder to chew I'm assuming?

    Book a dentist :). Enjoy. I looked at a lot of reviews and most were very positive. It’s like a light version of the Kensington dock at a fraction of the price. Obviously not as feature packed but way more bang for buck, especially if you already have other accessories like the magic/logitech/etc keyboard.

    Awesome. I think the older generation would really love this. So simple and a great form factor. You’re a good son/daughter.

  Would this work with a Switch? Had a quick search …

    Nah no good. Nintendo OS does not support external hard drives. It could possibly charge it but I wouldn’t buy it this for that purpose.

  Genuine question, beside being a build in stand, is this any difference than those 8 in 1 usb c hub that's normally posted here for like $20?

  •

    Which 8 port hub would do the job at 4k?

  • 

    [Deactivated] on 24/06/2022 - 22:04

    Not too much. But those $20 ports don’t have 4k@60hz. That’s what the more expensive ones generally have in probably the more $70-$80 range - I’m just going from memory. I’m sure there’s probably cheaper ones. What this is, is a high quality build, with a stand(which are surprisingly expensive for some reason) some USB ports, 60w charging and most importantly(for me anyway) 4k@60hz HDMI in a really nice form factor which makes it great for people who want to travel lighter too. You get so many features in such a small package. For casual use I’d probably recommend a cheap hub on Amazon that has the certain ports/features you’re after.

    Here's one I bought, coming today. Its $40 but they have 15% off at Amazon so $34 is pretty good and it has 4k @ 60hz. Some USB-C ports etc.

    Thought you may like to check it out. Always good to have a spare.

  Anything like this for the iPad mini 6?

    Somehow struggling to find if it has a usb-c port, do you know? If it does, then this should work fine.

      kerfuffle on 24/06/2022 - 22:28

      It does.

        Yeah it's fine then. It will work. Great size for the mini too.

  can someone tell me what people use this for? Assuming it's for replacing laptop?

    Yeah basically like an extra device/monitor for work or whatever. You can project the iPad onto s monitor. Skype calls and general office work. The original projection is bad like 4:3 aspect but apps out there to take advantage of the whole screen. And just a general stand/hub too since it’s so compact you can take it on the go.

  Looks like it’s back up to $179. I got mine. Works perfect. Solid deal. $100 I think is the right price. But it is built to last and loving how it works.
