Product Overview
AI-generated summary
For £22.94 ex-VAT, this StarTech 4‑port USB-A hub is a pretty sensible “desk-to-laptop” kind of buy—especially if you need a couple of extra ports for everyday stuff like a mouse/keyboard dongle, USB thumb drives, or a basic printer/scanner connection. StarTech’s rugged, no-nonsense build usually means it survives the real world better than the cheapest plastic hubs, and at 5Gbps it’s fast enough for typical business peripherals without feeling sluggish.
That said, I wouldn’t call it a great choice if you’re trying to power hungry devices. Because it’s bus-powered, things like external hard drives (and anything that asks for consistent power under load) can be unreliable or just not worth the hassle. If you need to run anything demanding, you’ll be happier with a hub that includes its own power. If your use case is low to moderate power peripherals and you want a dependable, portable hub for the office or travel, then yes—this is good value. If you’re in “drives and dock-lite” territory, look elsewhere.
