Swiss knife

The Satechi Type-C Multi-Port Adapter is like a Swiss Army knife for Apple laptops. Unlike cheap USB hubs that run on the outdated USB 2.0 standard, Satechi's brainchild splits one high-speed built-in USB 3.0 port into four similarly fast external ports — three USB 3rd generation and one USB-C.

USB hub and card reader

At first glance, it may seem that the main disadvantage of the Satechi Type-C Multi-Port Adapter is the price. Still, USB hubs and card readers are "crutches" for laptops and, usually, are inexpensive. Here we are talking about a price tag of almost $ 130, which is a little expensive for a "crutch" even by Apple standards.

HDMI and Ethernet ports

But this price is justified by several things, such as integration with Macbooks without installing additional drivers, an HDMI port for image transfer up to 4K, support for Thunderbolt version 3, and an external Ethernet port that supports speeds up to 1 Gbps. Plus, like all devices sold with the approval of Apple, it turned out to be stylish, elegant and quite compact.
