Anker releases new compact Nano USB-C Hub (6-in-1, 5Gbps)

A new Anker accessory, the Nano USB-C Hub (6-in-1, 5Gbps), is now available in the UK. This compact device appears to be the same removable hub which is included with the larger Anker Nano Docking Station (13-in-1, Triple Display, Built-In Removable Hub) (curr. $149.99 at Anker Store).

The Anker Nano USB-C Hub, also referred to as model A83C3, has a total of six ports. On one of the longer sides are 7.5W USB-C and 4.5W USB-A ports, each with a data transfer rate of up to 5 Gbps. Next to these are SD and TF 3.0 card slots (UHS-1, 104 Mb/s). On the opposite edge is the USB-C upstream port, offering an up to 85W output to power the host device and a 10 Gbps data transfer rate.

The final two ports are found on one of the shorter sides. The first is a 100W USB-C PD input, and the second is an HDMI port, supporting an up to 4K@60Hz resolution. This is a compact accessory, measuring 41.9 x 80.0 x 11.9 mm (~1.6 x 3.1 x 0.5 inches) and weighing 36.1 g (~1.3 oz), with a dark metallic gray finish. 

In the UK, you can now buy the Anker Nano USB-C Hub (6-in-1, 5Gbps) at the brand’s Amazon storefront for £29.99. It remains to be seen when this accessory could be released more widely in Europe or in other markets like North America.
