With USB-C becoming more and more popular, there are more and more USB-C Hubs available too.
In this special episode I am trying a couple of them and see what they can do and which pros and cons they got in comparision to the Microsoft Display Dock.

In this video I am going to check out these three devices in comparision to each other:
- Microsoft Display Dock HD-500, https://www.amazon.de/gp/offer-listing/B018E5L53S/ref=dp_olp_new?ie=UTF8&condition=new
- Hama USB 3.1 Type-C Hub with HDMI port, https://www.amazon.de/Hama-Super-Speed-Thunderbolt-USB-Verteiler-Multi-USB-Hub/dp/B079NY8QDG?th=1
- KiWiBiRD Aluminium Typ C Hub, https://www.amazon.de/KiWiBiRD-Aluminium-Kartenleser-Kompatibel-Thunderbolt/dp/B0769XK3SQ

If you do not want to watch the whole episode (which is pretty long... sorry for that):
The Microsoft Display Dock seems to be the gold standard for desktop usage, the one from Hama is good if you need a USB-C connection additional to other stuff and KiWiBiRD is a good choice for people with cameras saving on SD cards.
The big drawback however: Audio is somehow messed up for every device but the Microsoft Display Dock.

Let me know what you think in the comment section below :).
