QUOTE(zeroendless @ Nov 12 2016, 01:30 PM) Granted, you are limited to Mac goodies in Malaysia but if the stuffs u can get it here like in Apple store. it's much cheaper than buying in USA not just because the recent USD's hike. Remember, in addition to currency exchange premium, you have to pay Taxes in US. Unless you buy on online store like newegg and BH is still tax-free. Amazon is depend on where you purchase. Malaysian complain about 6% GST, that's not much compare to US sale tax.  8-9.5% is quite the norm there. From experiences, US retail is not any cheaper than Malaysia, currency hike or not on electronics goodies, especially misc cables and adapters. In fact, some of them are far more expensive. But their online goodies is another story. It's the online competing war in US that drives the price down, not only that, their services and return policy would take Malaysia years to catch up. Japan is the same deal. It's not longer cheaper to buy electronics stuff there due to RM shrinkage despite the tourist tax incentive. What I want is not available here; and if its, it's not worth the $$ to get it here.

I've a question regarding the Satechi USB-C Hub.... U see, it was designed for the 12" MB with 1 USB-C so therefore it is connected to the left side of the USB-C and it fits nicely; on the new MBPs that has 2 USB-C ports, it will block the 2nd port (I think). And what about using it on the right side ports for those with 4 USB-C ports? You're going to use it "upside down"? Not so ideal

Not so ideal  actually no impact at all. even if one side is blocked. there are still two more usb-c ports on the other side, it can still use for charging, or usb-c device. at the same time the usb-c hub also offers usb-c, usb-a port, that can be used to connect more than one device, charging at the same. 4 ports are really more than sufficient. especially if u use multi-adapter on either one of the usb-c. it actually multiple the no of ports even more.

In any case, I went with the other Satechi hub instead; the one with HDMI, SD & Micro SD Slots & Ethernet. This post has been edited by tinkerbel: Nov 13 2016, 12:06 AM
