Moshi Symbus Mini 7-in-1 Portable USB-C Hub REVIEW | MacSources
A portable hub for portable workstations.
If this past year has taught us anything it’s that we have to be mobile and we have to be flexible with our workspaces. I’ve worked off of a laptop for years and have had to modify the ways I work based on the peripherals I use. My laptop — a 2016 13-inch MacBook Pro — only has USB-C/Thunderbolt ports on it. Therefore, I have to use a dock or hub in order to connect to any outside devices. A lot of modern laptops have this problem now and so there are a lot of options for connectivity. Moshi, a designer of premium accessories, has a brand new 7-in-1 portable USB-C hub called the Symbus Mini and it’s perfect for working remotely.
DETAILS
The Symbus Mini is a compact, portable USB-C hub with full desktop connectivity. It features an HDMI port that supports 4K @ 60Hz and High Dynamic Range. There is also a Gigabit Ethernet port, SD/Micro SD card slots, and USB 3.1 Gen 1 ports. The dock is 100% plug and play and no drivers are required for its operation. The hub has an attached USB-C cable with SnapTo functionality (magnetic cable management) so that the cable is hidden away.
