Apple’s newest MacBook, MacBook Air, and MacBook Pro laptops are so sleek and powerful. In fact, it’s pretty crazy that Apple was able to pack all that oomph into a notebook computers that are so remarkably thin. In order to get the laptops so thin, Apple apparently had to remove all of the ports other than USB-C ports… but it’s really annoying when it comes time to connect just about anything to your laptop. The Mokin 5 in 1 USB-C Adapter Hub takes care of the issue by adding a 4K HDMI port, two USB 3.0 ports, an SD card reader and a microSD card reader to your laptop. It’s a top-rated hub that costs a fraction as much as comparable hubs from other brands.
