Any USB C hub would yall recommend? // or what USB C Hub you using for your Macbook Air M1?

- 1 HDMI port
- At least 2 USB ports
- If possible 1 USB-C port
- NO SD card reader needed

Preferably, the kind of hub that attaches with the laptop (with wire is okay as well)
I might be using the HDMI for long time (maybe up to 12 hours per day) when Im at home. (Is it okay?)
I understand that it might get hot as you using it (will it damage the motherboard ?) + MacBook Air has no fan sad.gif sad.gif

I wont using it to charge the laptop

With the requirements above, is it possible to get 1? biggrin.gif

yes, a bit warm but still acceptable
i use hdmi for presentation purpose only, so only use for <1 hour, a but warm la, long term use i dont know
but i suppose all usb hubs will create some heat

Even 1 hour can cause the hub warms, then more than 6 hours, the hub gonna be another level lol...
I hope hot usb hubs wont damage the laptop :')

I do intend to not fully charge the macbook
Just curious with the apps as it won't work when the laptop goes to sleep.
Before this, there's time when it'll charge to 100 when i forgot to turn off the charger.
But it's not happening just now...

If it maintains, it will be good, will look into it...thanks... thumbup.gif thumbup.gif
