I use this product frequently to increase the number of usb devices that can be simultaneously attached to my laptop. It developed a problem and I contacted the customer services team. Their response was prompt and excellent.
Only using it for dual monitor at this stage, no problems, branding is nicely unobtrusive, would be good to have a silver option.
Strange issue where I had to physically swap the cables to get the physical position right, could have been me. Supports 2 extended displays and the laptop, so three logical screens no problem.
Lovely product. I can use it with my Mac and my desktop pc
Allows me to connect my work laptop (tablet with clip on key board) to monitor, wireless keyboard and mouse. Also able to charge laptop, mobile and wireless headphones at the same time.
Great product. Works exactly as expected. Feels quality and a good compact size.
Liked everything about this product. Efficient, good size, works well.
The item is well made. The 3 additional USB ports are very handy.
My son brought this to use in his laptop and it does the job. He can now connect extra things he is using with a USB port.
Bought two of these for working at home. Both have been great and a real help with tidying up our desks. Only problem I’ve had is that one appears to disconnect intermittently but works fine otherwise
I originally purchased a 3 way USB C splitter cable. That particular splitter cable lasted 2 days before overheating and breaking. Safe to say that it has since been returned to Amazon. The best part is that the splitter cable that I bought, cost 5 more than this Dock, which is more of a HUB really, than a Dock. I should have done the smart thing, and bought this Dock straight off the bat.
Now, even though this Dock, which is more of a Hub really than a Dock, has a HDMI connector, I won’t be using it. I don’t intend to have the Deck plugged into a TV.
I bought this dock for the USB slots, as well as the SD Card functionality.
I intend to use the Dock to increase my Steam Deck’s data storage capacity from 64GB, to 5TB in total. In that respect, this “Dock” functions perfectly. The Dock keeps the Steam Deck charged via Quick Charge, while also allowing me to expand on the Steam Deck’s Data Storage Capacity.
Furthermore, it is lightweight enough that I can magnetise it, using magnetic tape, to fit on the back of my Steam Deck, without compromising weight or mobility, and in such a position that it doesn’t compromise either the heating vent’s or back plate buttons either.
The Dock will allow me to attach 2 512GB Micro SD Cards, and a 2TB external NVME to the Dock, using various adapters and enclosures. Combine that with a 1TB internal NVME, and a 1TB Micro SD card, and that will provide 5TB of storage data, which will be more than enough for multimedia, emulator rom’s and Steam Games.
It will break down into 2TB for Steam Games and the Steam OS, 2TB for emulators and rom’s, and 1TB for multimedia, all of which will be either in the Steam Deck itself, or magnetised to the back of the Steam Deck. After that has been sorted out, there should be one more USB slot free, which can be used to connect a wired Nintendo Switch Pro Controller to the unit if I choose to do so at a later date. At a pinch, it can be used to add even more storage, if I start running low.
All of that can be run through this Dock by connecting the mains power to the Dock, and the Dock to the Steam Deck.
The only port that this Dock is missing is the Ethernet Port, but, given the wireless capabilities of the Steam Deck, it really is no big deal.
The Dock provides excellent expansion options for the price point, and, yes, it does maintain quick charge while also powering these devices.
Be aware however, that there is no Ethernet Port on the Dock. There is also only 1 USB C port, which is for the main power cable. However, this should not be problematic, since most external devices are still using the USB 3.0 standard.
Since I wanted to use the Dock to power multiple devices, whilst being plugged in at the mains, while also maintaining the Steam Deck’s mobility, I did not want to purchase a dock that I had to plug my Deck into to be able to use fully. From that perspective, this Dock fulfils my requirement’s perfectly, while also being relatively cheap. If it does break in 6 months time, I’ll just buy another one. It’s only 20. What do you expect for 20?
More expensive Dock’s are available, which add the Ethernet to the Dock, but I am not sure that they add more USB C functionality.
Don’t make my mistake. Don’t buy weak splitter cables to power external devices. Buy a slimmed down Dock like this instead. That is what the dock is designed for.
Delighted with product. Did as it said on the tin!
After problems with the initial unit I received the Customer Service Team at Lemorele were incredibly helpful advising on troubleshooting. One it was established the fixes were not working a replacement USB 4-port hub was sent out promptly and without fuss. Excellent customer service & the unit looks great giving my Dell a new lease of life.
I liked this product so much that I have ordered a second one. Nuff said!
I have just received this and tried it out on my Steam Deck. Glad to report everything is hunky dory, HDMI works fine, Micro SD slot works fine, USB’s work and with the deck power supply plugged into the hub it fast charges the deck. I bought this for travelling as it fits nicely in my case and saves having to cart the dock around. For the price a nice little accessory. Hope this helps.
Works well with phone transfering data from micro SD cards to usb HDD
I recently purchased the Lemorele 4-Port USB Hub and I couldn’t be happier with my purchase. The hub is ultra slim and lightweight, making it easy to take with me on the go. It has 3 USB 2.0 ports and 1 USB 3.0 port, which is perfect for connecting all of my devices.
The hub is also very well-designed, with a sleek and modern look that blends in well with my other tech accessories. The USB ports are clearly labeled and easy to access, and the hub itself is plug-and-play, with no additional software or drivers required.
The hub also has a built-in over-current protection, which keeps my devices safe and prevents them from overcharging.
Overall, the Lemorele 4-Port USB Hub is an excellent choice for anyone in need of extra USB ports. It is portable, well-designed, and offers great value for the price. I highly recommend it and it is a 5 star worthy product.
Function – tick
Functionality – tick
Very pleased with the functionality of this item. Very functional.
Good quality for the price. Compact and external devices load up quickly.
connecting devices for song and music recording via guitar/keyboard/drumpads e.t.c plug and play great product.
Bought this product so that I could set up another monitor for my work laptop so I only needed it for the extra HDMI port. Works absolutely fine so very pleased with my purchase.
Works as intended. Mine is used to connect keyboard and mouse to the Xbox and does the job. Seems sturdy and should last well.
Good sized item, lightweight which is ideal. Allows for 4 different usb’s to be plugged in which is ideal for my works 1 USB slot laptop as it allows me to have my mouse and headphones plugged in.
Item did develop faults after a few months but customer service was brilliant and fast and a replacement is on it’s way.
works well for a while then needs to be disconnected then reconnected to get it to work again,but not to much of a problem once you know whats happening
Nothing spectacular. The unit does what it’s supposed to do and does it well.
I’ve used it daily for several months now, and I have absolutely no complaints.
I’ve been really impressed with this little hub, bought to enable me to connect absolutely everything I need to my Surface Pro via a single cable. I’m running a 50cm right angled extension cable from my USB C port (this keeps things neat and means the hub isn’t just hanging in space – not a problem if your ports are alongside your keyboard). This cable is rated for 100w so I also deliver power via the hub. I have two USB 3.0 hubs plugged in, carrying things like ethernet, external hard disk and webcam. Finally, I’ve got an HDMI lead carrying sound and video to my monitor. No probs at all, totally unobtrusive and (amazingly) completely cool to the touch. It’s about 1cm longer than a business card, two thirds the height and about 0.5cm thick so I’m buying a second one for my travel bag.
I bought this primarily for connecting my MacBook to a secondary display via HDMI. While the USB ports work fine, the HDMI port does not, so this is basically a dud. I’ve since borrowed a different HDMI adapter, so I know that the cable itself is not the problem. Disappointed, as the hub itself is very neat and solid feeling. Oh well.
UPDATE (04/01/2022): After some time, Lemorele customer support got in touch and kindly sent me an upgraded hub for me to try. I did, but again with no success. However, I then noticed that my other hub (Vava) had also stopped serving HDMI. Very odd. I now suspect that perhaps the issue is with my monitor and not the hubs. I’ve bumped the rating up to 3 stars – certainly the USB and SD ports were perfectly usable. I’ll will try again to figure out where the problem lies and will update this review if and when that happens.
UPDATE (05/01/2022): Did a lot of online research and MacBooks are notoriously temperamental when receiving HDMI input through third party hubs. Many suggestions about picking the right cable, updating drivers etc. Tried many options but eventually decided that this was a labour of diminishing returns, so I’ll park it. Can’t really fault Lemorele – there support has been very good while trying to pick through this issue.
Very light but build feels solid. I have been running it a while with no heat issues like other hubs. The HDMI port is really useful to hook up your laptop to the TV or a monitor (Windows mirror/extend but macs just mirror btw) The 4k resolution HDMI on this hub is ok for computer type work @ 30 HZ but if you’re planning on watching movies I’d try to source a 60Hz hub. It will run most USB peripherals, but unfortunately could not cope with the demands of my 4k webcam as it requires USB 3.1 rather than the 3.0 offerings on this. Hubs with 3.1 exist, such as the Dell DA300 but are nearly 3x as expensive. Additionally, this is a great USB c hub which should work through a thunderbolt port but will not give the same performance as the very expensive thunderbolt hubs/docks. This hub is what it is, a well priced seemingly good bit of entry level kit that’ll enables you to connect most USB peripherals to many of the modern laptops that increasingly only have USB c/TB ports. I’ve not used the micro/SD slots
