D-Link 6-in-1 USB-C Hub with HDMI/Card Reader/Power Delivery

Product Overview

AI-generated summary

The D-Link 6-in-1 USB‑C hub is the kind of basic “plug it in and forget it” accessory that makes sense for everyday office use and light travel. For ~£38 ex‑VAT, you’re basically paying for convenience: one USB‑C connection to get an HDMI display plus a couple of common extras without juggling adapters. It’s a decent fit if you want to connect to a projector/meeting-room TV, pull files off an SD card, and still charge your laptop—without spending docking-station money.

That said, I wouldn’t buy it expecting “desktop dock” behaviour. These compact hubs can be a little unpredictable with picky displays, certain USB peripherals, or heavier multitasking (think external storage + webcam + audio all at once). If your work depends on consistently flawless multi-monitor setups, lots of high-speed USB devices, or you routinely use it in a demanding environment, you’ll likely be happier with a sturdier dock from the higher tier rather than a travel hub. If you’re a standard laptop user who mainly needs HDMI and occasional card reading, it’s good value; if you’re power-USB and display sensitive, it’s probably not the safest bet.
