If you have purchased a laptop recently, you realize that most only come with 1, maybe 2 (if lucky) USB-C ports. If you have a need for regular USB, HDMI, or anything else, you need to purchase an adapter or in many cases adapters.  Today’s post is a review of the UNI USB-C Hub that is on the Tech Geek and More must have list. Review: UNI USB-C HUB

USB-C Explained

The smaller connector that you get with USB-C features a shape that’s reversible, so you’ll no longer have to flip the connector around a minimum of three times looking for the correct orientation. USB-C cables can carry significantly more power, so they can be used to charge larger devices like laptops. They also offer up to double the transfer speed of USB 3 at 10 Gbps. Since most devices now only include 1 or 2 USB-C ports there are 100’s of adapter choices.
