Purgo Mini USB C Hub Adapter Dongle for 2025/2024-2020 MacBook Air 13” 15” M4 M3-M1, MacBook Air USB Adapter with 4K HDMI, 100W PD, 40Gbps TB3 5K@60Hz, USB-C and 2 USB 3.0 (Silver)

PROS: -Good balance of ports and size -Smaller than most other options, so better for travel/mobility -Ports function like they should, and no major heat issues with charging so far. -Great fit/aesthetics - looks sufficiently Apple-ish without having an Apple-ish effect on the wallet. CONS: -Adapter fits tightly to the body, but still can pop off when disconnecting if you're not careful. Bought the Purgo Mini USB-C Hub Adapter to pair with my new 16-inch Macbook Pro and after about a month of use, so far it's been great! It's smaller than a lot of other options, which was the primary reason I got it - I was a little skeptical of the 4 USBs + 1 HDMI all in that small a form factor, but so far it's all working well. I also wanted something that wouldn't ruin the "Apple Aesthetic", because I'm a insufferable snob when it comes to those things, but it actually integrates really well in terms of fit and finish. I was worried that it might sit too high above the keyboard surface of the laptop when it was open, which it technically does, but just barely (like less than fingernail width) so I'm totally happy with that aspect of it. And although the finish isn't a pantone-perfect match of Apple's "space gray", it's so close that even my Apple snobbery wasn't triggered. I haven't done a ton of testing re: transfer speeds on the USB ports, but everything seems pretty snappy, and so far it doesn't seem to generate a ton of heat when charging, which I was also kind of surprised by. The only real downside is that although the two USB-C connectors that fit into the laptop are pretty "grippy", the adapter can still pop off if when you're disconnecting cables/drives. You have to hold the adapter in place when disconnecting things, but that's pretty much par for the course for these types of adapters, so just be advised. Overall, I think it's well worth the $$$!

I'm starting a remote job and I need at least 2-3 USB ports, which my 2019 MacBook Air does not have. Maybe soon we'll need to buy an adapter for our adapters just so we can charge our devices. Anyways, I was looking for an adapter that would expand my ports on my lap top. There wasn't a color that matches my Mac exactly, but it's gray so its close enough. The quality is also very well done and matches the feel of the lap top. It allows you to keep the two original lighting ports, while also adding an HDMI connection, as well as two USB A ports. So far I don't notice any problems as far as port connectivity. I have a keyboard connected to one USB slot, a transcription pedal on the other, while the HDMI sits empty and the one lighting port has a mouse connected to it as well. Not to mention the charger being plugged in while I'm working. Nothing cuts off while everything is in use. Only small thing is that as more things are plugged in, the adapter can start to bend the weight starts to build. Doesn't seem like it would be a big problem though, but I will update if anything happens. All things considered, I would recommend this product.

This little hub is small and slim, functional, and works really well. I decided to try this unit after returning another one that was about two millimeters taller in height than the bottom of my laptop (and everytime I closed the lid on my Macbook Pro, it would scrape the side). This hub fits perfectly. It is the exact height of the base or keyboard portion of my Macbook Pro, which means the lid can close with no interference. I've tried each connection, all at once and separately, and found no problems at all. One of the USB-C ports allows charging pass through, the other is for data. Now, one comment on the size. Because of the small size, at least for two of my cables (HDMI and a USB 3.1 cable), won't go all the way in. This hasn't seemed to affect the function at all, HDMI connects right away, and it recognized an external drive on the USB 3.1 port as well. You are getting a very small and convenient size, and I think some cables just are too long to totally fit in- again that hasn't affected the functionality at all. It has a nice little LED light to let you know it is connected, and stays in pretty well when removing cables. I did find that on all of these hubs, if you have a tight fitting cable, you are going to have to hold it as you pull out the cable or it will come out of the computer. This is to be expected though. This unit also is less flimsy when connected than I experienced with the larger unit I had to return. If you don't need a card reader, and your goal is USB 3.1, USB-C (Thunderbolt) and HDMI, its a great hub. It costs a little more than some of the sub $25 units, but I found the extra cost worth it so far. Good quality, small size that fits my Macbook Pro perfect, and very functional. Well worth a recommendation to buy it!

This product arrived on time and is exactly what I was after! The dongle fits snugly and flush against the MacBook Pro and looks like an Apple product. Has all the key ports and nothing superfluous. Very happy with the purchase!!

Excellent addition to my MacBook Pro expanding the limited ports available. Build quality is much higher than cheaper alternatives and the ports are nice and snug (avoiding accidental hard drive ejections). My Space Grey versions a spot-on colour match for the MacBook Pro.

El tiempo de entrega ha sido fantástico. En relación al producto, es muy bueno, lo único Malo es que no quedó cómo lo enseñan en la imagen de venta (todo el cuerpo pegado a la Lap) sino que los conectores de USB-C están dispuestos al revés y por ende no queda estético el acoplamiento. En cuanto a los puertos de conectividad, todos Funcionan muy bien.

El puerto donde acepta el cargador y el thunderbolt 4 son el mismo. Esto prácticamente hace que no se pueda utilizar un dispositivo tunderbolt 4 y cargar a la vez. Cosa que es el propósito del dongle y la característica de los puertos a los que se conecta. Fuera de eso, recomendable.

very lightweight and thinner than other adapters ive previously used!
