Verbatim® 9-in-1 USB C Hub - Review

As someone who works with multiple devices, I always look for ways to increase my device’s connectivity. That’s why I tried the Verbatim® 9-in-1 USB C Hub Adapter, and I’m happy to say that it exceeded my expectations.

Firstly, this device offers a lot of extra connectivity options, including 3 USB 3.0 ports, 1 USB C port, 2 SD card readers, 1 HDMI port, a LAN port, and a 3.5mm audio jack. Thus, the Verbatim hub adapter turns a single USB-C port on your laptop into nine different ports, making it easy to connect multiple devices at the same time.

I tested all the ports, and I found that the USB 3.0 ports are incredibly fast and support data transfer speeds of up to 5Gbps, allowing for quick file transfers. Additionally, the USB-C pass-through charging port supports up to 100W of power delivery, which means you can charge your laptop while using the adapter – a convenient feature for those always on the go.

One of the most impressive features of this hub adapter is its HDMI port. This port enables you to extend the display of your laptop to your monitor, TV or projector, providing up to 4k@30Hz resolution, which means that you can enjoy high definition videos and movies with zero blur. The HDMI port also supports audio, making it easy to use for presentations or video calls.

This adapter also comes with a 6ft Monster 4K Ultra HDMI cable that’s 4k certified and offers an 18.0 Gbps transfer rate, ensuring that you get the best video quality possible. The refresh rate of 60/120Hz ensures that even fast-moving images in videos and games are clear and smooth.

The adapter’s design is compact and portable, making it easy to carry in your bag for use on the go. The build quality is quite impressive, and the adapter feels sturdy and reliable.

However, in terms of compatibility, I found that this USB hub works well with most laptops that feature a USB-C port, such as the MacBook, Chromebook, and other devices that support USB-C. I think it's important to check if your device is compatible before purchasing.

Moreover, the device heats up a bit during use; it can get warm if you use it for extended periods. This is not a big issue and is typical of most USB hubs.

The Verbatim® 9-in-1 USB C Hub Adapter has received a 3.9 rating out of 5, based on 11 reviews. While this is not the highest rating, it is important to note that most of the reviews are positive. Some reviewers had an issue with compatibility with certain devices, but it’s important to do your research and ensure that your device is compatible before purchasing.

Overall, the Verbatim® 9-in-1 USB C Hub Adapter is an excellent choice if you’re looking to expand your connectivity options. With its multiple ports, fast transfer speeds, and high-quality HDMI cable, it’s an all-in-one solution that’s definitely worth considering.
