I had bought the original version when I got my 16" MacBook Pro in 2022. Love the MBP but I normally push around files too heavy for WiFi so I miss a real Ethernet port and this seemed of fill the bill. Seemed pointless to have both the USB-C connection for data and the power cable for the MagSafe 3 connector since it's going to be plugged in almost all the time. 100w is what the MBP will take through its USB3/Thunderbolt 3 ports even when it's being juiced by its 140w power supply, so this hub is perfect.While I was transferring files from my dead 2011 MacBook Pro's SSDs onto the spiffy new M1 this hub did everything I asked of it.The setup was rock solid for a couple of years, then every couple of months my screen would dim and I'd see my charger icon said I was running on battery. If I unplugged from the hub both the cable to the Apple power supply and the USB-C cable to the MBP, then plugged them back in all was well again.Then a few months ago I suddenly started getting a pop-up alert every day or so saying "USB Accessories Disabled. Unplug the accessory using too much power to re-enable USB devices." This is odd because the only external USB device normally plugged in is this hub - which is powering the MBP.Not sure if the hub is starting to have issues, or if the MBP's original power supply is fading. I do need to investigate more.For normal users who unplug their 'book to go mobile regularly, this hub should be great.Update: 2025.09.18Once I stopped using the Uni hub for power the "USB Accessories Disabled. Unplug the accessory using too much power to re-enable USB devices." alert stopped. Means I have both a heavy-duty USB3 cable and the light-as-a-feather Apple MagSafe cable plugged in, but say-la-vee.I got a second one for my spouse's M1 MacBook Pro too for her wired mouse and speedy Ethernet. Works great most of the time but about 1/3 of the time she has no mouse. We'd have to unplug from the Uni and plug back in before the connection was restored. It appeared the blue silicon case was pushing the host USB cable out slightly so I slipped off the case. Now it's down to about one day in five - down to the annoying but can live with it level.

This has worked great for a few years. It is great for a Macbook that only has USB-C/thunderbolt ports.

I purchased this hub after owning a very compact, on-body designed hub for my 2020 M1 13” MacBook Pro. It served me well for two years, but the main drawback was its inability to support 4K 60Hz on my display, offering only 1080p 120Hz. Despite multiple online searches, I couldn't find an affordable hub that met this requirement without risking breakage. I experimented with two different hubs, one falsely claiming 4K 60Hz support and another priced around $90 that still capped at 4K 30Hz, both of which I returned.Recently, I searched for the best USB-C hubs, specifically with a cable design instead of an on-body one. I stumbled upon a video by Jakob Haq on YouTube, where he reviewed the updated Uni Hub. His compelling reasons for why this hub was the best - featuring a replaceable high-data cable and 4K 60Hz support - convinced me to give it a try. I'd recommend watching his video, especially if you're a music producer with a portable setup like his.Upon ordering from Amazon, the Uni Hub arrived promptly, even without Prime. During the first day of use, all ports functioned flawlessly, including the USB 2.0 port at the back where I had my mouse's 2.4GHz USB receiver connected. However, after over a day of use, this specific port ceased to function or recognize any other accessories I connected to it. Fortunately, the 3.0 ports continued to work, though I was uncertain if they might eventually encounter issues.I contacted Uni support at this point, and they promptly acknowledged it as a unit defect. To my surprise, they sent me a replacement unit with exceptional customer service that was quick, friendly, and overall a pleasant experience. I would highly recommend this hub, not only for its features but also for the outstanding customer service that goes along with it.The Uni Hub boasts a range of ports, including micro and standard SD card slots, 2 USB 3.0 ports, 1 USB 2.0 port, 1 gigabyte Ethernet port, and a USB-C (as far as I'm aware) power-only port. Its versatility and portability are commendable, and the removable cable addresses the concern of the hub becoming obsolete due to cable damage. Overall 10/10
