This review is from: Belkin High-Speed USB 2.0 7-Port Mobile Hub F5U701-BLKShort of high-tech validation testing, my use of this device resulted in all positives regarding function. The only negative (below) doesn't affect the device functionality one bit.
POSITIVES:
==========
- Enables the obvious use of 7 USB ports where your PC probably doesn't have that many built-in. These extra ports can be conveniently setup on your table top so you don't have to reach down to (or behind) your PC to connect dynamic devices like cameras and cell phones.
- Supports USB 1.1 and 2.0 speeds simultaneously. In other words, USB 2.0 devices don't slow down just because you plug in a slower/older USB 1.1 device.
- Works with or without the power cord.
- When using the power cord, this unit charges USB devices even if not connected to a PC. My daughter wants another one in her room just for this purpose.
- Small enough to include in a laptop bag (though this is not how I use it).
- Excellent price for all this capability.
NEGATIVES:
==========
- The physical device is light weight. If it was huge and heavy (like maybe a TV or a PC), you could plug in USB cables with one hand. Unless you screw this device down, you'll need two hands. Also, it won't stay put and may twist or flop around if you pull or twist the connected cables....
This review is from: Belkin High-Speed USB 2.0 7-Port Mobile Hub F5U701-BLKThis is a very stylish hub, works well and is much smaller than it appears in the pictures.
The bad news: The power cable that it comes with, and which is required for a lot of Hardware that draws power the USB port cannot provide is WAY too short. In fact, it's positively a joke, and completely useless. It's maybe half a meter. Less than 3 feet. It won't even touch the floor from my table-top, much less have any chance of ever reaching a power outlet....
This review is from: Belkin High-Speed USB 2.0 7-Port Mobile Hub F5U701-BLKThe hub charges USB devices without computer. The power adapter is 4Amps. For the charging feature alone, it is worth 5 stars....
