So regarding cable management, Apple’s Multiport Adapter is neater. But because of this design, this hub has a much smaller design footprint.

It has a USB-A port, HDMI port that supports up to 4K (3840×2160) displays at 30Hz, and a USB-C PD port. Build quality of this hub is much better than Apple. The enclosure is made of precision-milled aluminum, and it has two colors (Space Grey and Silver) to match the design of your USB-C MacBook Pro.

If you are buying multiple units and splitting the fixed shipping cost with your friends, it is much cheaper. I got it at 20% discount because of the coupon code, 9to5mac, from [9to5mac.com](https://9to5mac.com/2018/12/14/hyper-20-off-sitewide/). I bought it together with the [HyperDrive 7-in-2 Hub for USB-C](https://www.hypershop.com/products/hyperdrive-kickstarter-7-in-2-hub-for-usb-c-macbook-pro-13-15-2016-2017-2018-and-macbook-air-2018). So if you factor in the 20% discount code and splitting the shipping cost for two products, I paid (US$49.99 \* 0.8) + (US$15 \* 0.5) = US$47.49 (S$66) for it.
