Welcome viewers once again to another featured product review. My name is Nick
and on today’s video we have a USB type C hub from a well known brand in the industry.
This is the UGREEN 6-in-1 USB type C hub multi-function 4K adapter.
In this short review we’ll take a look at its design and ports, and I’ll show
you how you can use it to convert your mobile phone into an Android TV Box. So stay tuned.
Welcome back. So once you unpack the contents,
this is what the hub looks like. It comes with a warranty card and a user manual.
So the design of this hub is very minimalistic, consisting of one HDMI port that can output
4K 2160p resolution at 60hz. You get three USB 3.0 ports.
And to the tip here you have a full size SD card slot, and a micro SD card slot.
To the other end you have the flexible type C cable for connecting to your devices.
Type C hubs such as this one can be very useful for mirroring your
mobile phone to displays such as a monitor or TV.
It can also come in handy with mobile phones that has A desktop mode
such as Samsung Dex or EMUI, and also makes it easy for you
to transfer files from your mobile phone to a flash drive or SD card.
If you have a laptop that has a type C display port it can be
used to extend your display by adding an additional monitor,
while at the same time giving you access to additional USB and SD card ports.
So here I have it connected to a Samsung smartphone that has the Samsung Dex desktop mode.
When connected to a mobile phone such as this one, you can choose to mirror your phone,
or you can use it like a desktop where you can use the mobile phone as a touchscreen,
or you can use a keyboard and mouse connected to its USB ports.
Some of the benefits of using the UGREEN 6-in-1 type C hub with your
mobile phone in desktop mode, is that you can watch premium movie services in
HD with HDCP protection through the hub on your TV or monitor.
Likewise you can use your Android phone as a TV Box by installing your favorite streaming APKs.
You can watch YouTube in HD 1080p resolution only
because it’s the highest resolution you can get from the desktop mode. If you would like
to get 4K you will have to connect either a gaming console or a Windows PC or laptop.
And you can play Android games on the big screen, and you can also use the hub
to connect your gamepad controller via USB if it’s a Wired gamepad or it uses a USB dongle.
If you have videos or music stored on a flash drive or external hard drive the hub makes it easy
for you to access and play them on your display. You also get HDR display quality through the hub.
There’s another way you can use this hub and that is by using it
has an adapter when your monitor does not have a type C input.
On laptops and mini-PCs that sometimes have one HDMI port and a type C display port,
you can use the hub to add a second monitor for extended display.
Simply connect the type C hub to your PCs type C display port.
Keeping in mind that the type C port on your PC must be a display port for it to work.
Then connect your second monitor to the HDMI port on the hub.
Your PC will then detected it and you can then proceed to configure your extended display.
When connected you can then choose to set your resolution to 4K at the 60hz through the hub.
So viewers that you have it. This brings to an end
my review of the UGREEN 6-in-1 Type C hub multi-function adapter.
This hub is a great addition to your collection of
mobile tools and gadgets to work with your cell phones and tablets.
