Although the latest USB 3.1 protocol is in the
market for a few years, it wasn’t very popular among manufacturers.
Consequently, there weren’t many 3d-party accessories and peripherals with that
type of connector. All that ended with the release of MacBook 12″ from Apple,
that incorporated just one USB 3.1 port and nothing else! And since Apple is
known to influence the market more than any other company, more and more
accessories and peripherals shown up.
Let alone the fact that the rest of the
manufacturers began to adopt USB 3.1 as the standard when it comes to ports.
And that is when Dodocool steps in, with the Dodocool DC52 Dual USB Type-C hub
that is made for the MacBook 2016/17 models with dual USB 3.1 ports.
Dodocool has improved greatly in terms of design,
quality, and performance over the years and the DC52 hub is a perfect example
of that improvement. Having said that, let’s dive straight into the details
then. The hub allows you to get probably all the ports you’ll need, since the
MacBook lacks many of them.
There are 2 USB 3.0 Type-A ports to attach all your
older devices, 1 USB 3.0 Type-C port (data transfer only), 1 Thunderbolt 3 USB 3.1 Type-C port (supports
charging, video output, and data transfer),
1 SD and 1 TF card slots. There almost nothing missing,
apart from an HDMI port that would be really helpfull. It is available on
Amazon for just US$ 59.99, US$ 30 off the official price.
