Satechi Multiport Adapter 8K with Ethernet V3 review: The world isn't ready for it yet
Satechi's latest Multiport Adapter 8K with Ethernet is a great piece of hardware, but it's looking too far ahead for its own good.
The USB-A ports have been upgraded to 3.2 Gen 2
The lineup includes 7-in-1, 6-in1, and 4-in-1 multiport adapters, all with a 4K HDMI port, and 100W USB-C PC charging, up from the previous 60W. This allows them to handle a greater variety of monitors and peripherals with ease. The 4-in-1 model pairs this with two USB-A 3.2 Gen 2 ports which can deliver increased transfer rates of up to 10GB per second.
The 6-in-1 adapter has a 4K HDMI, USB-C, one USB-A 3.2 Gen 2 port, one USB-A 2.0 port, and a microSD card reader. The 7-in-1 model is almost the same but with two USB-A 3.2 ports and an added gigabit Ethernet port.
Each model comes in a slim aluminum case with a redesigned USC-C connector that can connect to devices in protective cases more easily. They'll be available in Space Gray, Silver, and Black on Satechi's site from September 26 for $59.99, $69.99, and $79.99, respectively.
Satechi also announced a passport cover
Satechi also announced a passport cover with Find My technology that lets you ping it from the Find My app and receive notifications when you leave it behind. It charges wirelessly and has an impressive five-month battery life.
As well as a slot for your passport, it also has four card slots and space for important documents like boarding passes or travel visas. Until our passports become digital, this is about the best you can do to keep them safe and retrievable in the case of loss. The passport cover is available now for $59.99.
