Location Of Macbook Air Usb Charging Port

With the new macbook pro usb-c port you need one of these.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Belkin USB-C 6-in-1 Multiport Hub with mount has been a game changer for my home office. The multiport hub includes: USB-C, 2x USB-A, SD, microSD, and Ethernet ports. I use a MacBook Air and this laptop lacks the USB-A port. I’ve been able to connect the hub to my MacBook Air to utilize the USB-A port to read my USB flash drive data sticks. The MacBook Air also lacks an integrated ethernet port. The Ethernet port that is included with this Belkin Multiport Hub is a bonus. I’ve connected my MacBook Air to a hardwired internet connection versus a Wi-Fi connection. I have experienced an increase in data transfer speed with this hardwired connection. This multiport hub is easy to use and takes up little room during transport.

My MacBook air only has usb-c ports, so this allows me to use any usb-a peripherals with it. Like thumb drives, hard drives, card readers, a mouse or anything else. It is very helpful and comes in handy frequently. I love the short cable and its flexibility. It is well built and sturdy, and the flexibility has just the right amount of resistance and strength. It does not feel fragile at all, but still can be bent into a position that you'd want. Because my MacBook has 2 usb-c ports right next to each other, this works better than a thick usb-a adapter which would be larger at the connection point and might encroach on the other usb-c port. This does not get in the way of the other port, which is nice. [I have received this product in exchange for my honest review]

With a MacBook Air, you have only two Thunderbolt ports. This multiport adapter adds two USB-A ports, a USB-C port, and an 4K HDMI port, effectively giving you four ports with the use of one Thunderbolt already on your MacBook Air. And, it's small enough to easily carry in a pocket.

For any M1 Mac with a USB-C port (MacBook Air, Mac mini, MacBook Pro, Mac Studio) the Transcend will transfer at 10 Gb/s USB 3.1 Gen 1 speed and NOT 20 Gb/s USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 speeds. Interestingly enough, the additional provided USB-C to USB-A cable allows 10 Gb/s to the rear USB-A port of the Mac Studio even though Apple advertises the port to go up to only 5 Gb/s. The unit has a pleasant rubberized optional cover that feels good in hand and doesn't scratch other devices in your bag.

Own a 2017 MacBook Air and did not realize a USB Type-C port was not on the device. This product was immensely helpful as I've now been able to plug more recent equipment into my older laptop. Personally used the adapter for a high definition webcam and it served the video transmission and streaming wonderfully. Extremely satisfied and happy to have found this tiny piece.

It’s functional and works as advertised. The charging port location is well thought out.

Works as described. I love the USB port for charging devices.

The battery is unique with a USB-C charging port - neat

Best of all, it has a USB Port for charging mobile devices
