ALPAKA HUB Keychain: Key Organizer with Quick Release System - EDC Tactical Keychain Clip for Belt Backpack & MOLLE - Minimalist Key Holder with Fidlock Magnets - Ideal for Daily Use & Travel

The ALPAKA HUB Magnetic Keychain is a smart, well-executed idea with a ton of potential. The HUB system itself is excellent—strong magnets, sleek modularity, and a satisfying, secure snap when attaching to compatible mounts. I have a lot of confidence in the HUB core design. However, the keychain attachment itself is the weak link. The metal feels a little underbuilt for heavy or long-term use, and the way it secures into the clip doesn’t quite inspire the same confidence as the magnet connection above it. It’s fine for lighter keys or minimal setups, but if you're carrying a few more keys or anything substantial, it starts to feel a bit dicey. Given the Orbitkey imitation that followed this product, it’s clear ALPAKA is onto something—flattering, really. But ALPAKA has the opportunity to own this category if they lean into what they already do well: build hard-use, overbuilt gear for serious EDC users. A more rugged version of the HUB keychain—thicker metal, reinforced attachment point, maybe even some shock resistance—would be a home run. As-is, this is still a solid product that I enjoy using daily. But I’d love to see a “Pro” or “Heavy-Duty” version that matches the rest of ALPAKA’s premium gear philosophy.

This is perfect for my work badge. Not heavy on pocket like metal lanyards are

It’s a handy system.. the clip clips on to just about any strap I have, I then get the option to magnetically clip on items such as keys, AirPods, IDs, etc to it using the clip. My AirPods, keys and wallet all have a male end clip so when I’m out and about and need to free up a hand to get back to something, I attach to the clip. It’s versatile since the clip is removable. So when I’m traveling overseas, I use the clip to hold my passport pouch. It’s a nifty system indeed. I wish they’d sell clips in bulk or even the hub in a bulk package that was more affordable.

Nice key holder, very durable

Love this keychain. The magnetic system they use is very well designed. Attaches back and locks in place without looking. And can’t fall off or even be pulled off, unless you pull from a certain angle. But, the metal ring that holds the keys was painted black to match the rest of the keychain. And that paint starts coming of the minute the first key on it rubs it a little. Looks awful with paint scratching off. They should have just let it be its natural, metal color.

The key feature of thsi keychain hub is the fidlock magetic latch. The only way to take it off is to pull the tab. Otherwise, it just won't come off no matter how you pull or shake the thing. Because of the strong magnet, it's so easy to put it back on and secure it. Comparing this with the 8Timber version, I think it mostly boils down to usage. If you need to hook , then the carabiner (8Timber) version would work better. But if you are like me and one to clip it to a pocket (i.e. an interiod pocket of a backpack or sling bag), then this Alpaka Hub (clip version) would work better. Also, this is so much lighter than the 8Timber carabiner version. I don't mind it being plastic since I will be using it inside a bag most of the time. An interesting fact is that you can interchange the keyring portion between Alpaka and 8Timber , which is a good thing if you have both. There are two things I wish it could be improved: 1. The clip is quick thick. It would be nice if it can be slimmed down a bit. 2. The pull tab is a bit too thin. 8Timber's silicone pull tab feels more substantial and easily to "find" (when reaching inside a bag without looking). Overall, this is still a great 5 star product.

I had gotten this 2 years back and still use it everyday.

This is the best set up for my work badge. Now it doesn't matter if I wear a belt or have loops. And it's shorter than any other standard badge holder with a carabiner.

Excellent quality product, I love the design and the ease of use.. sometime in the future I will most definitely buy another

Should have got this sooner, excellent quality and works well

Amo esta marca, ótimos 🥰

Bought a whole set to attach to my wall and backpack. Great to have your key in reach and organized

Credo che il modo migliore per recensire un prodotto simile sia semplicemente un video che ne illustra il funzionamento, di conseguenza ho fatto un video descrittivo del prodotto indicandone tutte le caratteristiche, pregi e difetti, la parte scritta della recensione la riassumo in modo schematico così da renderla più leggibile e che sia di ausilio al video per capire le caratteristiche del prodotto: _PRO_ Connessione magnetica molto robusta ed estremamente comoda e pratica Attrazione e connessione delle chiavi alla fibia veramente ben fatta Materiali di alto livello _CONTRO_ Forse leggermente ingombrante come semplice portachiavi _CONCLUSIONI_ Questo prodotto utilizza un sistema di aggancio magnetico con sgancio meccanico, dal video si vede bene e devo dire che ogni volta che si ripongono le chiavi si prova una grande soddisfazione, il prodotto è costoso ma comunque il prezzo è giustificato dall’alta tecnologia e la progettazione meticolosa del prodotto Nel caso la recensione vi sia stata utile vi prego di farmelo sapere utilizzando l’apposito tasto
