Check your power supply before purchaing
The Hub works, just not as expected. I contacted support and the rep said I needed more power. I have a 65w charger for my Lenovo Yoga and she said I need 80w because the hub uses 15w. I'm not sure why anyone would have a charger on hand that has 15w more than your computer needs.
This should be listed in the information before buying or Anker should include a 100w power supply for the Hub.
Issues from not having enough power are 1) Does not do passthrough charging 2) HDMI to 2nd monitor is not fully colored, it's like theirs a 50% transparency gray box over everything. I purchased it to be able to connect a new microphone and for that alone it worked well. I just don't have enough ports to run everything. I tried connecting a 2nd power supply(one to the Hub and one to the laptop) and it did not improve the image quality.
Edit: purchased a 100w charger and performance is the same. Does not run an external microphone and charge the laptop.
