Pleaaaase stop using burned in forced letterboxing. Just edit and output in the aspect ratio that you want your image to be, without any built-in black bars. Now I'm watching a full black frame around the video; bars left, top, right, and bottom, as if the video is just too small for KZread. I'd prefer if you just output 16:9 videos by the way. It's a tech video, not a Sergio Leone movie. But if you insist on the wide aspect ratio, DON'T bake in the bars, thank you.

That's very likely due to KZread's recommendation cards at the end being disabled on videos that aren't 16:9. We've had the same problem and for now, there's no solution other than letterboxing :/

I have the Hyperdrive, and it has two USB-C attachment points instead of just one like you showed on the video. Also, I work on a desk, not on my lap, so I never felt like it was flimsy. Also, it’s not a dongle-I could leave it attached to my MacBook when I slide it in to my bag. It feels like it’s a part of the laptop.

So glad this series is back

Thanks for bringing this series back! Another suggestion: HyperDrive PRO 8-in-2 Hub for USB-C. It allows pass through charging, yet uses 2 USB-C ports for added security. No flimsiness and adds 4K MiniDisplay port!

I'm so glad this series is back

Is it possible to use the USB-C on the USB-hub (e.g. for a USB-C-drive) while using the other slots (e.g. USB-A, SD-slot) ...?

I've purchased the Saitechi USB V2 hub on a recommendation from you guys - It sure is a great USB C dock! And suprisingly small one too. I like the aluminum finish which gives it that premium feeling. Though it costs me 800 DKK (about 130 Dollars), it's still cheaper and smaller than most of the docks from the laptop manufactors. I've needed a USB dock with a lot of ports since my Lenovo X1 Gen 3 tablet only has USB C Thunderbolt ports, and i needed the Ethernet and 3x USB A ports for my gamestreaming with keyboard, mouse and a gaming headset. Great video, thanks Verge!

Did you guys test or have any comments on the wireless interference on any of these? I've had bad experience with devices like the HooToo hub causing the wifi to drop when it's plugged in.

What do you think of using '2 USB Microphone' connect to the ipad pro with this ports..?

Any recommendation on best pass-through? I realized I can’t connect my usb c charger on a lot of adapter for 87watt. Lmk & thxs.

Just yesterday, I was wondering what happened to "This is my Next" series as it has influenced a lot of my buying decisions. Thanks for bringing it back!!!!

Nice video and thanks for uploading. A few months ago I bought a 2016 MacBook Pro 13", which hub would you suggest in order to be able to connect an older monitor?

For the most part, getting the right cables will eliminate the need of a HUB. But a HUB is still useful for expanding the number of total ports, and for improvising. And in some cases, like a Ethernet and HDMI, the right cable doesn’t exist, so then it’s either dongle or HUB. Satechi has another irritating design flaw in v1. The MicroSD slot swallows the whole MicroSD card completely. You’ll need long nails to get it in and out of the port. I hear they’ve since updated the design in v2.

Also ,I iwas to use my old powered usb hub on a usb c only MacBook with a usb C to usb converter , would this hub also power the laptop ?

could you please explain to me , if the usb hub has pass through power to charge the laptop this power has to come from somewhere as you also specified that they don't have their own power supply , this doesn't add up ?

is there a USB C type hub that will provide both DVI connection for a second screen and also include another USB type C port so i can charge the laptop?

I’m constantly plugging in to various different TVs for presentations and after owning a few of these, the official Apple adaptor is the only one that worked on every TV (using HDMI) I plugged in to.

Is there a hub or dock that outputs two/three HDMI/DVI? looking for a multi monitor setup

I've had the Satechi Hub for a couple of months and it works wonderfully!

Is that work with phone with type c port? If can this can backup SD card to flash drive easily.

My laptop has a TB3 port. I am going to use a type C hub for 3 or 4 portable harddrive. Does it need additional power? The TB3 port also supplies power, isn't?

do these work for smart phones because i wanna use my google pixel as an emulation station/ nintendo switch clone on the tv as a console. will i be able to plug the phone into the c port then the tv in through an hdmi and everything should work out with my bluetooth controller??

I’ve been looking at some USB-C hubs to use with my MacBook 12", to replace a cheap and worn-out little one (barely more than a splitter) that I’ve had for 3 years. I would only get the Hyper ones that supposedly flush-mount to the computer if I were just combining it with an extension cable, which I already have, to actually plug into the computer.

Hi, I am using Macbook Pro 2019 with external monitor (1080p). I am using one of the USB-C hub from FitFort. To connect to the monitor, I am using HDMI connection from the hub. But the resolution on the external monitor is not upto the mark and it looked pixelled. Not at all looking like 1080p. I did all the settings in the diplay and resolution on the setting showing 1080p. I think it is due to adaptor. Which adaptor would give me proper resolution? I saw adaptors (apple and satechi) on apple website. Is satechi is good one for the purpose?

Can you connect the the USB C cable that is attached to the tail end of this hub to a monitor that has USB C input? Laptop HDMI output connect to the hub.

Is there a way to get a usb dock like this but for USB 2 ports because my msi ge72 apache laptop doesn't have thunderbolt ports or USB 3 at all

Hey, I' getting a Macbook Pro soon and was looking at a dock. I would need to get 2 monitor ports and a ethernet port. Would there be a dock that has all of that? I have seen a few docks however they only have 1 video out. Meaning I would need 2 docks to achieve what I was looking for.

hi, will this hub power 2 external usb-a hard drives?, or one external drive and an audio interface i.e. higher juice usb a connections? is there a usb c hub that will power multiple usb c hubs in a portable form factor?

Hi Verge, looking for a usb thunderbolt hub with hdmi and dvi to have dualdisplay. Which one would you take? Thx in advance :)

Hi. Maybe you know the difference between a hub with 220 power supply through the power supply unit and without it it does not work (not one connector) and those without power supply can be attached to the laptop, but you can optionally charge it through tiapsi ???? them, with a power of 200-600 euros, and without it 30-100 euros. I suggested that through the first infa comes from flash drives faster, if 3 immediately and for example 2 monitors 4k and everything pulls and in simple ones something will slow down or 4k worse or speed ... no other explanation ?????

Just the information I was looking for!!

Can the usb c input for power also be used as output (for for example a second external screen)?

I actually have the HooToo that you featured in Space Gray. It works great. I don't mind the glowing logo. I just plug it in upside down.

yeah so im now running in old school mode... Do you have a similar video for mini port display hubs?

Can you use these hubs for laptops which don’t charge through USB C? Just as a USB adapter for HDMI monitors while charging the laptop via another port?

Thanks for the info! Heads up that the HooToo is currently (as of mid-February '21) out of stock on Amazon, for those of you who like that one.

Is it possible to use the USB-C Power Input in almost any Hub as Input for other USB C devices? For example a USB C Cable to my Phone for Data Transfer?

I'm using a hub from cadyce is it ok if it starts heating mildly when in use?

I need a Thunderbolt 2 to USB Hub. My MacBook Pro ports stopped working. Do you have a link to buy one? I only keep finding Thunderbolt 3 C that does not help me at all.

How can I get the picture to expand to the full size of the tv

Do you know of any USB-C hubs with a usb-c input to be able to plug a usb-c-touchscreen (usb-c input not only for power but data as well)?

Would be useful to have the links to amazon in the description for the hub from the video.

I feel like the ones like the hyperdrive solo are purely meant for when you’re at a desk for example, because when the laptop is on your lap then the hub as the freedom to be pushed down. However when you’re at a a desk it cannot, great video tho 🙏🙏

Nice video, like the vids keep up the good work, thank you for helping me decide what usb c dongle to get!

What about Anker? :(

4:35 steer clear of the Hyperdrive Solo. It works, when it stays connected--and it will, if you never move your laptop, but it's the reason I'm watching this video now. The Satechi looks like the deal for me. Not worries about the low charging rate. There's three other ports on my MacBook Retina for that.

I mocked the new MacBooks when they removed all these ports. But honestly, now I think it kind-of makes sense to move all these features into a separate peripheral. Since most people will only use them sometimes. And professionals have a variety of different requirements.

I hope you guys make a thunderbolt version since ipad pro has it now
