    Thanks Matt.

    I have been thinking of buying the OWC 13 Port Hub. You have made up my mind
    I will buy it now.

    Hi Matt,

    I'm pretty convinced with the Charjen pro hub. I'm also looking at the satechi usb-c and the OWC usb-c travel hub that was released after your review. Can I know if they come close to the Charjen pro in terms of performance? Thanks!
