LENTION 4-in-1 USB-C Hub with Type C USB 3 0 USB 2 0 for 2025-2016 MacBook Pro M1-M5

I bought this hub because my new refurb MacBook came with one USB C port and nothing else. I needed to expand available external connections since My backups are on an external SSD. The Lention hub sounded like a good option - not expensive and supports a variety of USB plugs. It also looks good. I found that the hub more than met my needs. The USB C and the USB 3 are super fast. I can charge the Macbook battery through the USB C while using one of the other plugs for the SSD or for a printer. The USB ports on the device have the minimum necessary separation so if the plugs have a large case or a USB thumbdrive is wide then it may not be possible to use all the ports at the same time. The manufacturer was faced with an engineering decision to balance accommodating several plugs with keeping the hub small. They made the correct choice in my opinion. I have not had a need to use all the ports simultaneously. Now for the service rating. I received the package a day earlier than promised. It worked only for a half hour. The Macbook kept telling me that I was disconnecting a device incorrectly even though I wasn't trying to disconnect. I contacted the manufacturer immediately by email since this product received some really good reviews. I sent the message on a Friday hoping to get a response the following Monday. Instead, I received on notice on Saturday morning that they were dispatching a new hub that day. I don't know when it arrived because I had to be out of town. The new device was there when I got back. It worked perfectly. The multiple follow-up emails were even more satisfying. Read more

All of the usb ports work - depending on what you're using them for, you might get a little lag, but in my experience that happens with pretty much all products of this type. The lag doesn't seem especially different from any others, and it's not enough to affect anything I use it for. It's something you should keep in mind if even a very slight lag would cause huge problems with whatever you're doing, but since I've never found one of these that doesn't lag a tiny bit I have no idea what your alternatives would be. In 99% of cases it's not going to be noticeable at all, so I'd definitely recommend it. I think in terms of personal preference I like the kinds that plug directly into the computer (no wire), but not enough to pay more for any of them, and this was one of the most affordable ones I saw, so I think you're getting decent bang for your buck.

It does work and worked well for a while, but I started to notice some issues after continuous use. For example If I have a hard drive and mouse plugged in at the same time then the mouse will be very slow or won’t work. I also have issues with my hard drive occasionally disconnecting with the smallest movement, which can be very annoying. Overall, it’s fine but it does have its faults. Read more
