Anker USB-C Hub Is a Steal Right Now on Amazon, but Tariffs Could Push Prices Up Soon
Laptop users … you can do a lot on your laptop all itself, yes. Though you could be severely limiting yourself. A 17 inch laptop is considered to be on the larger side, yet monitors pretty much start at 10 inches larger than that nowadays. Then you have the super wide, 4K displays for even more field of view. Maybe you type a lot at your desk and you’d prefer having a tactile mechanical keyboard. On-board speakers for your laptop not loud enough? Gotta plug in speakers too. Then we have microphones, headphones, maybe even a drawing tablet for the artists out there. And all those need to be plugged in but you just have the one USB port on your laptop.
That’s exactly why you need a good USB hub. This Anker USB C splitter is precisely what we’re looking for. And best of all, it’s on sale. You can save 29% which works out to a cool $10 discount. That black version is the one down to $25. It’s also available in blue, green, grey, and white but those are only down to $28—still lower than full price.
This docking station is a single cable solution so you can avoid a messy desk and tangled wires. Just plug your laptop in with the USB-C cable to connect to all of your accessories at your desk in one go. You can connect to a 4K display and watch videos up to 30Hz using the HDMI output. Do note though that the USB-C data port does not support video output. The HDMI should do just fine for you.
Powerful Pass-through ChargingYou laptop can even charge through the the same USB that’s connecting it to your displays. The Anker USB-C hub supports up to 85W passthrough charging so no need for you power adapter anymore. The USB-hub can handle that so you only need to spare the one USB-C port on your laptop.
The USB-C hub can even be used to transfer files between devices and it does so super quickly. You can move files to and from your laptop at speeds of up to 5Gbps via the USB-C and USB-A ports.
Right now, this USB-C hub from Anker dropped in price by 29%. It’s normally sitting at $35 so after the discount, you’ll only pay $25. Save yourself $10 with the black Anker USB-C hub, or save yourself $7 and go with the fancy blue, green, grey, or white options.
