Why This Middle Tier Works
The 7-in-1 fills the gap between a tiny HDMI dongle and a fuller dock. It gives creators card slots and gives laptop users both USB-A and USB-C data, while avoiding the size of an Ethernet adapter.
When to Step Up
If your desk depends on wired internet, the Anker 8-in-1 is still the better fit. If you never touch SD cards, the 5-in-1 is cleaner and easier to pack.
