Anker USB C Hub, 11-in-1 Docking Station Dual Monitor, 10 Gbps USB-C and USB-A Data Ports, 4K HDMI and DisplayPort, 85W Power Delivery, 2 Data Ports, Ethernet, for XPS

This is a mid-range port dock/expander designed for Macbooks which might also work on other models of Laptop. I found it to be "plug and play" when used with my Macbook. I liked that it has HDMI and display ports, plus SD and micro SD card slots. It also has one fast and two slower USB-A ports. These are intended for external storage, keyboard and mouse, but can have other uses. I liked that it connects to the Macbook via a short attched cable and USB-C plug. It does not obstruct any of the other ports on the Macbook, unlike some other dock devices. (Although this is not as neat)

Sturdy, works well and looks good. Compared to other ports of same budget this one has lasted far longer and still going

The most comprehensive USB hub I could find in this price range (that's actually good). I tried a few lower priced ones that worked fine but seemed to have issues where they glitched and ejected my SSD's... This is the first good, solid hob that works perfectly and has access to all the ports i need (multi USB, PD and access do SD/TF slots) The perfect combo and it's works right out the box. Great bit of kit!

A very useful item delivered well packed and right on time.

Well built and good connection options from PD, USB-C, Ethernet. Ideal for expanding the ports on my MacBook Pro.

It does the job it's supposed to, for the most part. However, the ports all seem to be unreliable. About once per week I have to unplug the HDMI lead or the dock entirely, then plug the HDMI back into the dock, and the dock back into the PC. Now the audio pass-through seems to have completely broken today, prompting this review. Could I expect more for more money? Probably not since more expensive docks just focus on new features... honestly would have hoped for better consistency / reliability from Anker. Unplugging and replugging is a huge PITA the way my home office is set up to hide wires.

This is a review of the Anker USB C Hub, 11-in-1 Docking Station. It works really well for me. I use it to connect my laptop (A Lenovo Chromebook adapted to run LUbuntu) to my KVM switch (a PVBCTCSID 8K HDMI KVM Switch). This arrangement work perfectly for my application, allowing me to use my 4k Alienware monitor (and KBD & mouse) when I need a bigger 2nd screen attached to the laptop. The hub also works well with my Streamdeck.

It works reliably and is compatible with Windows and Linux. I needed to connect it to a USB PD power supply (using the PD socket) in order to use the monitor ports. It was good value for money and is light.

Der Anker 565 11-in-1 USB-C Hub macht insgesamt einen sehr guten Eindruck und funktioniert zuverlässig. Die Verarbeitungsqualität wirkt hochwertig und die verschiedenen Anschlüsse sind praktisch für mehrere Geräte gleichzeitig. Worauf man achten sollte: Es wird ein zusätzliches Netzteil mit USB-C-Anschluss benötigt, da manche Funktionen nur mit externer Stromversorgung vollständig unterstützt werden. Außerdem kann es vorkommen, dass nicht alle Laptops ohne Weiteres mit der Dockingstation zusammenarbeiten – bei mir mussten je nach Gerät teilweise Einstellungen angepasst werden. Für meinen Bedarf erfüllt der Hub seinen Zweck gut, daher insgesamt zufrieden mit dem Produkt.

Works well I use it to hook up my audio interfaces, Boss rc600 looper, and other random devices. It’s a little heavy but well built.

On a MacBook Pro M4, not all devices connected via USB 3.2 port were discovered by the OS. (They are discovered with an older hub, and with direct dongle connection).
