That MacBook is now sitting in a repair shop two months after purchasing it, with all ports unable to receive power and thus the computer out of battery and unusable. The repair is covered by AppleCare but guess what - the data recovery by the third party repair shop is not covered by AppleCare (Apple says they care too much about privacy to offer this service -_-). And data recovery is needed because the genius bar rep told me if it's a logic board issue, it's 100% chance of data loss without a data recovery because the hard drive is sodered to the logic board.
The guy at the genius bar said he has seen multiple cases where Anker hubs caused this specific issue in MacBook Pros. It just so happens that I also used this hub. Apparently there is a Big Sur update that solves the problem because the Anker devices aren't properly regulating the amount going into the computer. But Big Sur has compatibility problems so I don't want to upgrade.
The data recovery bill is going to be $700-2700, not covered by Apple, and now I will have to buy a different brand of USB hub (I bought two Anker hubs because historically I have liked their quality). And it will take 5-7 business days for me to get my Mac back, which has all of the documents I need for work.
This is for a $5k machine I bought two months ago.
I can not prove that Anker was the culprit but I'd like to add my case to the mosaic because it seems clear that many people are having this problem and they just so happen to be using this hub AND Apple had to make an update to solve the issue.
The Apple genius bar rep told me that Anker actually paid for someone's repair in one case because they didn't have AppleCare.
I'm severely disappointed in Anker and what is also very frustrating is I see forum posts with other people having this issue as long as a year ago. Why is this still being sold? There should be a warning on here. Anyone up for a class action lawsuit?
Shortly after I posted my review below, Anker reached out to me directly to help troubleshoot. They ended up sending me another hub to try out. The new hub did not have issues with the wattage output as I did with my previous one and I am able to get an HDMI 2.0 output. Thanks Anker!
Like:
+ I appreciate the build quality
+ Comes with a nice pouch
+ Has all the ports that I need
+ Plugged this into my PC laptop and it worked fine.
Cons:
- Says it supports up to 100W. Not sure if I had a defect but it was 60-65W at most
- HDMI Display on Mac is 2.0 however, it drops the refresh rate down to only being able to support 50hz (don't have this problem on PC, however it will only go up to 60hz on my 144hz display)
Going to return this and look for another adapter. Usually have great luck with Anker in the past but not this time.
Solid build quality - for such a dinky hub, it’s got some heft. Shouldn’t slide around on the desk too much unlike the all-plastic hub I use at work.
HDMI out works on both MacBook Air and Samsung Chromebook Plus V2 (core m3). Decent transfer speeds over USB.
Power delivery is fine, but it’s worth noting that when I first got this, I plugged in my 30W charger and it only delivered 15W. After messaging Anker, they promptly replied and informed me that the charger has a 15W overhead, and suggested I try a 45 or 60W charger. I ordered one and just tested it out and my MacBook detects 45W of power, so all is good.
While it makes sense that a hub would consume some power, 15W seems high, but it does seem to work fine now. I told them it would be helpful to have this clearly indicated on the product listing though.
Overall, despite a false start, I’m pleased with this hub, and with Anker’s excellent customer service. Changing from 1 to 5 stars.
Update after using this for a week in my home office: It's performing perfectly, with no lag when swapping it between laptops. HDMI out to a 34" ultra widescreen 2440x1080 monitor is great, although it caps the refresh at 60hz from my Chromebook, and oddly, the Mac says it's 59.97hz, but that's more than good enough for basic productivity. Logitech Unified receiver is picked up promptly by both devices once plugged in. Haven't tried the USB-C data port yet, but I'm assuming it will work well.
The hub gets only slighty warm even when using to charge devices and transfer data, which is better than I expected, since similar products' reviews complained about heat. I like it so much, I'll probably buy a second one soon for travel.

If you want it to power your laptop you have to be aware of a few things - this is going to get complicated. You need to know:
- The wattage required by your laptop in my case 85w (THIS WILL NOT CHARGE THE 15Inch MACBOOK - that’s 87w higher than this can deliver).
- The power requirement of the charger. If you buy a 60w charger the power delivery may not be 60w. In my case my Anker charger was only a 30w charger - an additional 30w was used to power the charger
- the power requirement of the hub. That’s 15w
So if you use the 100w charger that came with the Mac minus the 15w power consumption of the hub and you have 85w - just enough to power the MacBook.
I’m only giving 3 stars because they really don’t make this clear. Anker sell a lot of different power supplies and adapters and it would be great to see a table of the power supplies and this hub comparing what power output you will get.
Habe es jetzt seit ein paar Tagen testen können.
Als ich das Paket erhielt habe ich mich gleich gewundert, wieso es relativ „schwer“ ist.
Der Hub macht einen massiven Eindruck. Das Gehäuse besteht aus Aluminium und Kunststoff.
Durch das dicke Gehäuse habe ich kaum Eigenerwärmung feststellen können, obwohl dort ca. 15W benötigt werden.
Die Anschlüsse sind meiner Meinung nach ausreichend und für das iPad Pro die richtige Ergänzung.
Es werden alle Anschlüsse ohne Probleme von dem iPad erkannt.
Jetzt leider die etwas „schlechtere“ Nachricht.
Das iPad Pro 2021 wird nicht im laufenden Betrieb geladen.
Wenn man das Originale Netzteil von Apple mit 20W anschließt, kommt die Meldung „Lädt nicht“.
Theoretisch sollten mit den 20W die 15W abfallen und insgesamt noch 5W zum Laden übrig lassen, jedoch wird dies das iPad direkt mit Verbrauch und es wird noch etwas vom Akku beigetragen.
Somit entladet sich das iPad langsam aber sicher.
Arbeiten ist dadurch zwar länger möglich als ohne Netzteil aber irgendwann muss man nicht mehr über den Hub laden.
Wenn das iPad nicht benötigt wird und der Hub über das Netzteil verbunden ist, ladet es trotzdem jedoch mit ein Viertel der Leistung als normal.
Wenn das iPad nicht benutzt wird, würde ich empfehlen diesen Hub auszustecken, weil er ja immer in Betrieb ist und somit das iPad entlädt.
Ich würde den Hub trotzdem zum Kauf empfehlen da er trotzdem besser ist als andere Hubˋs die ich auch schon getestet habe.
Bei anderen Herstellern funktioniert z. B. die SD-Karten Slots nicht auf dem iPad.

Leider ist dem nicht so. Ein angeschlossenes Thinpad T480 meldet, dass es nicht geladen werden kann. Und das it verbundenem Originalnetzteil. Der Hub selbst macht einen soliden Eindruck. Mechanisch Top verarbeitet...
Deshalb muss ich den Hub leider schweren Herzens wieder zurückgeben. Schade. Trotzdem toll von Amazon, dass er so schnell (das in der heutigen Zeit) geliefert wurde.
Vielleicht hat ja der Hersteller ANKER einen Tipp für mich. Denn ansonsten bin ich mit deren Produkten immer sehr zufrieden.
*[EDIT] I’ve now tried this with a 30w/18w USB-C Anker 12v car charger and it passes charge power through to the iPad as expected. The previous charger I tried was an Anker 18w USB-C 12v car charger but for whatever reason it didn’t pass power through.
I’ve tested the SD card reader, the micro SD card reader, the USB A/3 ports (with an external USB-3 spinning hard drive) and the USB-C data ports, all work just fine now. I can get iPad audio out through the USB-C port whilst simultaneously charging the iPad through the PD port. Big thumbs up!!!
I’d say the only drawback is the cable is quite short and not swappable.
*[previous review] The reason for 4 stars*[now 5 stars!] is that this does not pass power through to my iPad Pro 11” as I’d hoped, so you can’t use the hub and charge the iPad at the same time. On first connecting the charging spund emits abs the battery icon goes green but then a second layer it goes off. I tried with two different power sources (one standard 2.4a USB-A car charger, and one anker PD car charger delivering up to 9v/2a) to rule that out but no luck. It’s possible it will work on a mains charger but I haven’t tried that yet.
