One of the best things you can do to improve your laptop working experience is to get a USB hub. It won’t cost you a fortune, and it will add so much versatility to your computer by adding all kinds of new ports and connections that you’ll definitely end up using.
Right now, this 5-port Anker USB-C hub is only $18.99 on Amazon with a lovely 24% discount. At this price, it’s worth every penny.
The thing that makes this hub such a great pick is the 4K HDMI port that allows you to connect a glorious 4K monitor. You don’t normally find that kind of connection in a budget-tier hub. As for data management, this Anker hub has a USB-C port up to 5 Gbps and two USB-A ports also up to 5 Gbps each. That’s fast enough for flash drives, peripherals, and some external SSDs (but not fast enough for the high-performance ones).
Lastly, this hub has a 100-watt USB charging port, which means you can keep your laptop charged even while this hub is plugged in and taking up that precious USB-C port on your laptop.
All in all, this 5-port Anker USB-C hub is pretty basic, but it’s a winner if all you need is a few more ports on your laptop and don’t want to spend too much. Get it now for $18.99 while you can!
