The AGPTEK Type-C Hub is also compatible with other flagship devices with USB-C ports, including MacBook/MacBook Pro, iPad Pro 2018/2020 11inch/ 13inch, Huawei Mate10/P20, Samsung S8/S9/Note8, and more. This means that users can easily switch between devices without having to worry about compatibility issues.

The device has two LED lights on the front that indicate when it is successfully connected to a device and a hard disk. This adds to its ease of use, and users can be confident that their devices are correctly connected to the hub.
