I have bought a couple things from Yugster and haven't had any issues with them so far.

The description says it has an HDMI port, but from looking at the picture, I don't see an HDMI connector, just 2 USB-C, 2 USB-3, and the SD card slots. Is it hiding some place that's not visible in the picture?

I don't see HDMI either, in any of the views.

Still, not a bad price if it's reliable.

It's a great price if it really supports Thundercrap 3 speeds.

It doesn't have a HDMI port, it's HDMI over Thundercrap 3. Scrolling through the diagrams seems to imply only one port supports 40 Gbps, and it's the only port that supports fast charging. That means it can either fast charge OR transfer at high speed, not both.

I ordered what was supposed to an aluminum SD/mSD adapter w/ a short cable from Amazon last year for $15, and they sent me something similar to this (in black) that was selling for $44 by mistake... so I simply ordered another SD/mSD adapter (in silver), which I've used several times, and the black mistaken adapter has been used three times. If/when you need extra ports & readers, these are very handy.

I like the pigtail-less design and anchoring in both USB-C ports. I find pigtails put stress on the flimsy micro-USB connectors on my current travel laptop. I assume USB-C isn't any more robust.

This design means you cannot easily connect if your Mac has a case.

I ended up going with a leather case to help me hold onto my Mac that's otherwise quite slippery (and has rough metal edges IMHO).
