Satechi USB-C Slim Multi-Port Hub ($80)
While it’d be nice to carry a big Thunderbolt 4 dock around everywhere, for those who want to pack light, Satechi’s USB-C Slim Multi-Port hub with Ethernet makes a great companion. You get a full-size HDMI port that supports 4K resolutions at up to 60 fps, gigabit Ethernet, separate SD and microSD card slots, two USB-A ports, and a USB-C port with support for 60-watt power passthrough. It’s basically everything you could need in a compact travel dock aside from possibly DisplayPort. But that’s a sacrifice I’m willing to make to keep my bag from getting too heavy.
