Satechi 6-in-1 Slim USB-C Adapter

4.0/5 Buy from Satechi

The Satechi 6-in-1 Slim USB-C Adapter is small enough to fit in your pocket, but provides enough connectivity to meet your daily needs.

After Updating Your iPhone 14 to iPhone 16 this fall, all my devices now support USB-C connections for charging and data. This is also a reality for many other Apple consumers, and this is where the value of a small USB-C adapter comes in.

Satechi has been making USB-C and Thunderbolt docks and adapters for years, covering a variety of price ranges and needs. Its latest model is the USB-C Slim 6-in-1 Multiport Adapter.

Satechi 6-in-1 Slim USB-C Adapter – Design

This is an upgraded version of their previous 6-in-1 adapter with 4K HDMI and up to 100W of power via cable USB-C. There are both SD and Micro SD readers, and I appreciate the two USB-A ports – 2.0 and 3.2 respectively.

The adapter's body is made of aluminum, and the connecting cable is braided for strength. It's as thin as an iPhone and not as tall when folded.

Satechi 6-in-1 Slim USB-C Adapter – How to Use

Like most adapters, using it is simple. Plug it into your laptop, tablet, or phone and start connecting.

With just HDMI and power delivery, it's easy to connect to a monitor and stay charged while you work. Despite the size of the adapter, I did not notice any heating issues during use.

Sharing files in a group setting is also easy, potentially using two flash drives and SD cards at once. For example, I don’t have to wait to get back to my MacBook to transfer photos from my digital camera, and I can immediately transfer them to my phone to share with friends.

For something that fits in my pocket or bag, I always carry it with me in case a friend or I need extra ports.

Satechi 6-in-1 Slim USB-C Adapter – Highly Productive Adapter

This is a simple and effective adapter for what six ports can give you. The build quality is solid and should last a long time, especially when USB-C seems to be the wired type of the decade.

If you need more ports, there are plenty of options, or you may want a larger dock for your desk. Satechi's products are a little more expensive than others, but their quality is noticeably better.
