Pros & Practical Use

Advantages:

• You can charge your device while using HDMI and USB accessories simultaneously, thanks to PD passthrough.

• Useful for presentations, external display usage, or adding more ports to thin laptops or tablets that may lack HDMI or full‑size USB.

• Relatively compact and lightweight — good for portability and travel.

• Decent power capability (67W) is enough for many laptops, phones, etc., though may not fully power the most demanding devices under load.

Things to Watch Out For:

• The PD port is one‑way, meaning it only receives power (you plug a charger into the hub), and doesn’t send power from the device. Charrans.com+1

• USB 3.0 port’s current is limited (~0.75A) so if you connect high‑power or high‑draw devices via USB 3.0, performance may be restricted.

• HDMI video specs (resolution / refresh rate) may depend on your device’s Type‑C port capabilities. If the device’s USB‑C does not support video output (DisplayPort Alt Mode), HDMI may not work.

• Heat could build up with multiple outputs in use; aluminum helps, but consider ventilation.

• Cable length is modest; if the hub is placed far from your device or monitor, you may need to manage cable routing carefully.
