If your MacBook doesn’t come with enough ports and you constantly find yourself unplugging one thing to connect another, a USB-C Hub can make things easier for you.

The Anker 7-in-2 Mac Dock is one of the better options out there. It offers a nice selection of ports, supports fast-charging, and also promises speedy file transfer. Amazon is currently offering it for only $30, after taking a solid 45% off the usual $55 price. Delivery is included, so $30 is all you’ve got to pay if you grab it today.

Seven ports in total

This compact hub adds seven more ports to your MacBook. It features one multi-function USB-C port, a USB-C data port, two USB-A ports, one HDMI port, one SD card slot, and one microSD card slot. There’s basically enough space to connect a separate monitor, peripherals like keyboard or mouse, external storage solutions, and more, without ever feeling limited.

The multi-function USB-C port supports pass-through charging at up to 100W. You can also use it to move stuff across devices at up to 40 Gb/s, which is pretty fast and means even the heavier files won’t take forever to transfer! And if you ever need more than one screen in your setup, you can add one more display (at resolutions up to 5K) with this USB-C port, too. Another slot that supports external displays is the HDMI port. This one lets you add a second screen at up to 4K resolution. These are especially great for multitaskers who often need to work on a few different things at the same time.

Compatibility is huge. The dock plays nicely with almost all the latest MacBook models, including MacBook Pro (M4 / M5 Series), MacBook Pro (M1 / M2/ M3 Pro, and Max), and MacBook Air (M4 / M5). Note that slightly older MacBook Pro (M1, M2, and M3) and MacBook Air (M1, M2, and M3) models only support a single display output, so you won’t be able to connect two external displays at once. MacBook Neo isn’t supported as of now.

The box includes the 7-in-2 Anker Hub itself, a welcome guide, and an 18-month warranty. You can now grab this hub for only $30 at Amazon, thanks to a whopping 45% discount. This offer takes $25 off the usual cost, and there are no additional shipping costs to worry about either. You’ll just need to act fast to grab the offer, as it’s only here for a short time and could expire soon.
