Ikling USB C Hub, 9-in-1 Adapter with 4K USB C to HDMI, VGA, Gigabit Ethernet, 100W PD, 2 USB-A 5 Gbps, MicroSD/SD Card Reader, USB C Dock for Most Type-C Devices

My review of this product is truly 5 stars from the product to the service. It started as a order that unfortunately never came due to Amazon logistics meaning the package was either lost or damaged in route. Naturally I was bummed as I use this for business, a day later a representative from the store named Martina asked politely, ( they didn't know either, Amazon just sent it back to them) "what was the reason for the refund and how could they do better? "Right away I was impressed, because well let's be honest how often do you get effort like that these days? Or a follow up question like that because someone in customer service & business actually cared? That great business. From there I explained , well I don't really have any feedback since it never got to me which was no fault of their own, accidents happen. However after Martina heard that and it was Amazon's call to return the item or deem it "undeliverable", Martina issued me that refund immediately, and sent me out a free unit rush delivery for the time it took away from my work being I paid for rush delivery initially and was on a deadline. I would have bought this regardless being I am familiar with the brand, however not a option , Martina insisted on making it all right.Martina was a pleasure to speak with and truly cared about my experience and had complete pride and confidence in her store and products. So thank you Martina, you went above and beyond in a unfortunate situation and made it a positive. Very rare these days , to any customer looking, I will say I would not hesitate to do business with this seller/store. Look at any of my reviews, I am a straight shooter good or bad and this was all good.Now, as far as the product goes , well its is 100% as advertised! I put this type-c hub to the test . The package you can see shows the time and care that went into the presentation and just says quality. The box was sturdy and strong with a magnetic lip and the device itself comes with a nice travel bag, typically these things come in a beat up cardboard box at best , not this one.In what I do I immediately put this hub to the test , it doesn't indeed put out 4K@60fps, the type A ports are indeed 3.0 as I tested the data transfer rate and it worked well , even the the ethernet port which typically does not hold up to its rating came as close as possible I got a steady consistent 780mbps down & 750mbps up which is impressive for a hub. It has a nice firm graphite feel to it , it definitely could handle a drop or few and is well made. The 3.5mm headphone jack works great and I opted for the VGA version for backwards compatibility being VGA is pretty much obsolete these days.The point is the product is great and works very well . They offer different variations to your needs but in my opinion you can't loose. They are priced very fair and with stuff like this you pay for what you get. Granted my situation was a tad different but I will be doing business with Martina in the very near future.At the end of the day go with a store/seller that has pride in what they do and actually offers a great product. As far as I am concerned this was a great encounter and urge anyone to not only give these guys a try but its nice that you can trust they have quality products that they stand behind.I know this is a long review a hub BUT,I felt it was deserved, it was that good of a product and great experience with the store & Martina. I hope someone finds this helpful in their choice or making up your mind on a buy. Best of luck!

It seems to be working fine. Still have a few ports to test. I wanted something inexpensive now so, later on, I could spend more money on a Thunderbolt 3 (40Gbs) capable hub. Hopefully, when I need that kind of speed prices will have fallen and Thunderbolt 3 (40Gbs) capable hubs will be smaller and more portable. Your hub had all the ports I wanted and otherwise fit the bill. Thanks!Update 2/7/20: After my first review uploaded around 1/20/20 (which I posted to qualify for the free gift from Ikling – more about that later) I’ve had some time to do a more comprehensive review. Here it is:Review of Ikling USB C 9-in-1 Port Hub (referred to as the hub):My computer is a HP Spectre x360 13-AC023DX (Purchased May 2017) The box the hub it comes is premium, even has a magnetic latch. The fit and finish of the hub is excellent with a mostly metal case. I hooked a device up to every port and let it run for a while, the hub gets warm but not hot. Windows recognized every device hooked to the hub even when I plugged in an additional non externally powered USB 3.0 4 port hub to one of the USB 3.0 ports of the hub. These items were plugged into the additional hub - Logitech USB unifying receiver (wireless keyboard and mouse), 128GB flash drive, external hard drive, USB C phone cable charging my phone a LG Stylo 4. All worked fine. I copied files between them including the hub’s built-in microSD & full-size SD card readers which was also successful. The HDMI, VGA, the audio ports of the hub worked as described in the manual. The HDMI & VGA ports display the same thing but I could extend (create one big display across two monitors) my laptop’s built-in screen to either one of them.My HP laptop displays this dismissible warning – “HP recommends using an original power adapter from HP” when I plugged in the hub for pass-thru power. The understanding is that HP laptops do this unless an original power adapter is plugged directly into a USB C port. The hub still charges and does everything power-related correctly.The only problems I have had were not related to the hub’s functionality at all. Ikling offers a free gift, one of which is this same hub. To receive it you had to register the warranty and submit a review of the product which ends up as an Amazon review. I thought I had done all that correctly on Ikling website but I guess not, since I never received it. Anyway, Ikling finally got my email and sent me an email on what I need to do now to get my second hub. Two hubs would be great. One for home and one for the travel bag.Pros and Cons of the Ikling USB C 9-in-1 Port Hub:PROS1. Inexpensive, especially with the free gift.2. Works as advertised.3. Well built.4. Small and portable.CONS (Nitpicks, really)1. Could use a 2X as long, detachable connection cable.2. Could use one more USB 3.0 port3. Could use one more USB C port with 10Gbs data throughput.4. Poor translation of manual.In the future I will test the second hub, of course. Do more extensive tests on both hubs with the ethernet port and all ports where speed is a concern and file transfers are possible. This is dependent on acquiring the necessary tool to test speed etc.

UPDATE:The customer service is amazing. Upon notifying them of the error, they sent me a replacement. Though the VGA connection (I have an old monitor) remained spotty, the unit otherwise performed flawlessly. I tried multiple VGA cables and eventually decided to use a DVI to HDMI dongle. Huzzah - no more spottiness. Now I have a small, portable hub that lets me use multiple monitors and access to USB and SD cards.I highly recommend this product, unless your only option is the use of a VGA cable. Then it’s a flip of a coin if it works or doesn’t in my experience. That’s the only thing keeping it from five stars.I really wanted to like this product.It's small, lightweight, easy to travel with and has all the connections you could ask for (I still have an old monitor with VGA). Unfortunately, what it has in size and convenience is lacking in reliability.I would often lose connection - not just to the monitor, but to the device entirely. I'm not sure if the device overheated - it would be warm to touch but nothing concerning - and I would have to unplug it and try again after a few minutes. In my opinion, this is unacceptable, especially when relying on a product to extend displays.As I said, I really wanted to love this product, but reliability is a key required element.
