I’ve had one other Sabrent product from years ago (a USB sound card) and it worked, that’s really all I could say about it. Everything about it felt very cheap (it was) and it left me feeling satisfied, but not impressed. This product really turned me around on the brand as a whole, this feels like a very high quality piece of kit. All of the materials feel great to the touch, the ports are sturdy, the power switches have a great tactile feel without being loud and clicky, everything was plug-and-play. Tested on an Apple Silicon MacBook, provided proper speeds as advertised for an external drive. The charging port is a nice touch, super easy to charge my phone when I’m at my desk. I can’t believe this is as cheap as it is (snagged for about $45) for the build quality and features - and time for my favorite QOL feature: the LEDs. Most other hubs also offer LEDs, but basically ALL other hubs that have LED indicators are an EYE PIERCINGLY BRIGHT blue. My machine is in the same room I sleep and need to run tasks overnight with my drive attached. Other hubs in the past have literally kept me up at night to the point I bought a sleep mask. These LEDs are essentially the perfect brightness and diffusion. They’re so subtle but still work in the daylight. 10/10. Photo taken in essentially complete darkness. They are DIM and it is AWESOME.

Nothing to complain about. Works as advertised. The individual on/off buttons seem like a good idea but I can’t conceive of a need for them with my devices. I just wish that Nikola Tesla had discovered the means of wireless transmission of energy so that we could get rid of all of our wires.

I've been using an external USB optical drive on an old iMac for years. I recently got a new iMac and found that the original drive worked with it, but multiple newer drives did not. I thought it was because I was using the drives' USB-C connectors. With a USB-C to USB-A hub one of the newer drives worked, sort of, but not what I would call WELL. Most drives could not read CDs. They could load CDs, with difficulty, but could not read data from them. Could not play music, import tracks, or even copy raw data. This hub solved the problem. All the drives can now read CDs, DVDs and blue-ray disks over both the USB-A and USB-C connectors on their 2-headed cables. Apparently newer-model iMacs have power limitations on their I/O ports when used for USB-C and the newer optical drives draw more current than my oldest drive. I have not found any way to complain to Apple about that.

Power cord is very loose when inserted into hub and I had to jiggle it to get power to the unit. Slight bumps of the cord or hub caused power cut. Eventually, the cord no longer provided power to the unit, no matter how much jiggling. Reached out to Sabrent support, but they wouldn't provide a replacement because the product was 4 days past 1 year warranty period. Nor would they provide option for me to buy a replacement part. WARNING: the amazon page states product is covered by 2-yr limited warranty, but Sabrent only honors a 2nd year if you register the product at Sabrent, which I had not done. Seems like a bit of bait and switch. I'm buying a competitor's model as replacement.

Bought this early January 2026 so far works great, charging is same as any other charger I have owned. Seems pretty solid, and having 7 ports is great. LED's are as bright as I was hoping but good enough just need to lean over to see them. It's great that each port has a power button. I really don't feel any heat when I touch the unit.

Sabrent 7 port usb-c hub: Overall a great hub, with a nice mix of A, C, and power ports. Pros: - Its nice to have it plug into the computer's USB-C port. - It's powered, and the one 20 watt USB-C power port works even for a power hungry Pi 5, which is really convenient - the cables plug in on the side, which makes the hub sit more firmly on the surface, and makes cable runs neater. - the power switches are mechanical, with visible in and out positions. Con: The only con is that, unlike the advertised images, the power indicating leds are deeply recessed, and impossible to see unless you look straight down on the unit from above (see the photos comparing the led lighting to my old 4 port hub, which can be seen clearly at all angles). I can see this being a deal-breaker in some cases. I don't mind too much, as I can still see the mechanical switch position, but I'm deducting a star for the bogus images that claim you can see the leds at an angle. You can't.

Works great. It is used to connect two external drives, I like the switching capability instead of direct connect, and it is giving me great transfer speeds. The only draw back is the short connection cable as I use an Uplift desk with the PC tower under the desk. I purchased a USB 20G extension cable to accommodate.

I have 2 of these in my sim rig. Easy to use, love the individual power buttons per port. Only thing I wish is that the cord was a little longer to allow for more mounting flexibility.

Prima

Hasta el momento, funciona perfectamente Lo encuentro caro, pero dado el incremento de corriente de los diferentes accesorios que necesito conectar al ordenador ha sido un acierto.

Works as it should! The buttons are nice to be able to turn ports on and off

Spot on. I needed switch usb c ports as some of my devices do not turn off unless unplugged. This offered the perfect solution. Metal built. Switches are great quality.

Love it. Manual switches. Plug and play and control what gets power. The only gripe I have is the relatively short cable to connect the hub to my pc, which is the only reason it gets 4 stars instead of five.
