5.0 out of 5 starsMaybe don't expect 100% of this product but service is good
Reviewed in Australia on 24 March 2021
Bought this product to replace my very old USB hub. Arrived with the furthest-right switch that won't stay down/clicked so 4th port unusable.
I contacted support and with quick response, got a full refund while the product stays with me.

On initial use, the light would flicker and the connection to my devices would turn off and on but now they haven't done that in a while.
Having a 4th port would've been great but this is still nice with the switches, the price and good customer service.

1.0 out of 5 starsThis is a four port hub, but you will be lucky to use two ports if one is an external drive....
Reviewed in Australia on 1 November 2020
But unless you are connecting low powered devices, you will not be able to use all ports. I bought this product happily, thinking I could connect two external drives, a wired keyboard, and a notebook stand with fans (low powered). When connected, the external drives were not displayed by the system. There was nothing in the product details to suggest this (although I did find an Amazon review later that related the same issue). I contacted the geniuses at Sabrent, who first suggested my devices were too lower-powered and weren't being detected! (A flukish event) after restarting the notebook led me to investigate on my own, and by leaving only one device attached (yes one - why even buy it), I found the single external drive could be detected. Oh, then the same geniuses at Sabrent told me it was because I connected high-powered devices. The upshot - one external drive and maybe (yes maybe ) a wired keyboard - so you work it out; do you really want to waste your money as I did?

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect
Reviewed in Australia on 12 March 2021
Size Name: 4 Port 3.0 + ButtonsVerified Purchase
Works precisely as described, good quality and inexpensive. As now I have a webcam, microphone, vertical mouse that I use to work from home, I wanted an easy way to turn on and off the webcam/microphone when not in use and disconnect everything easily at the end of the day. This is perfect, I would highly recommend.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Quality Hub
Reviewed in Australia on 22 May 2020
Size Name: 4 Port 3.0 + ButtonsVerified Purchase
The item arrived relatively fast shipped from USA to Australia and I have been using it daily as a laptop hub ever since. As my laptop has limited ports, I use this hub to connect my external Keyboard/Mouse and other usb cables which i leave plugged into my laptop. When i want to take my laptop out for work/travel, its a simple 1 plug i need to remove for all my permanent peripherals. The individual switches are also of a good quality, but I don't use them that much.

Great value for this 4 USB hub. I especially really like the ability to switch on and off which ports I want to use as I have a light up keyboard which I don’t want to have on when I’m not using my computer. Same with my webcam, I feel better knowing it can be disconnected with just a button instead having to unplug or use a cover. Definitely recommend

5.0 out of 5 stars Delightful unpowered USB hub
Reviewed in Australia on 26 April 2022
Size Name: 4 Port 3.0 + ButtonsVerified Purchase
Bought this for my THEA500 mini Amiga 500 console. Needed extra to add keyboard and thumb drive to existing mouse & controller as only 3 USB ports are on the console. Tried it with two thumb drives and a keyboard. You can turn off unwanted ports to save precious milliamperes, which is just what is needed for this console.

The Sabrent 4-Port USB 3.0 Data Hub provides just the right package to complement my THEA500 mini console. I’m sure it’ll be useful on my THEC64 maxi and mini and Raspberry Pi computers.

Recommended.

4.0 out of 5 stars Decent quality, just hate the LED’s
Reviewed in Australia on 25 November 2021
Size Name: 4 Port 3.0 + ButtonsVerified Purchase
It works as you’d expect, occasionally it’ll disconnect my external drive for what ever reason but it’s not hard to turn back on.

My main issue is that the LED’s stay on after the pc is off, meaning that if you’re like me & have the pc in your bedroom, there’s going to be 4 bright blue lights on your desk at all times.

5.0 out of 5 stars Works Great, build quality as expected for price
Reviewed in Australia on 8 July 2021
Size Name: 4 Port 3.0 + ButtonsVerified Purchase
This thing works extremely well for my purposes! I connect a number of devices that are bus-powered and this thing has no problem with the power. I was a bit worried from the negative reviews with people complaining about power issues but obvs these people are trying to connect things that are pulling too much current like a hard drive (or something else with moving parts).

This thing has no issues simultaneously running my Novation Launchkey Midi Controller keyboard and and Roli block and seaboard - all of which which draw current to power bright LED's or charge internal batteries. No issues at all.

Being able to 'power down' or disconnect my Launchkey without unplugging it is a major bonus. The build quality of the switches doesn't feel stellar but for this price i wouldn't expect A-grade switches. If one breaks i'll use a different plug or buy another hub and still be ahead.

Unbeatable value so far.

4.0 out of 5 stars Works fine, but the cable is not 2ft, it is 20cm

Data hub works fine and it is a small, portable design. But the product description is inaccurate - the cable is only 20cm long. While this isn't a problem for me, if you are looking for something with a longer cable, this is not it.

4.0 out of 5 stars One of the outlets was very wonky and button won't stay pushed in, but otherwise good!
Reviewed in Australia on 28 August 2021
Size Name: 4 Port 3.0 + ButtonsVerified Purchase
I use this to keep my keyboard, mouse, microphone and capture card plugged in whilst I work and stream from home. Works fine, but the button for the USB outlet that my keyboard is connected to won't stay pushed in and will turn off when bumped. This was easily solved by moving the hub out of the way so it won't be bumped, and it stays on that way. Just be wary of that when purchasing.

4.0 out of 5 stars It's good...but time will reveal its true value
Reviewed in Australia on 23 August 2020
Size Name: 4 Port 3.0 + ButtonsVerified Purchase
The unit itself feels quite delicate as it's just plastic casing with a relatively short cable. The buttons to activate each port are a little flimsy/weak as well. So I wouldn't recommend being anything but delicate with it. Other than these things, it seems to work fine. Over time, we'll see how it holds up and hopefully it remains functional for a while to come.
