I have an old macbook but I really like the idea to have a single cable connected to a hub where everything plugs in and your laptop charges. I just wonder whether the usb-c style connector really is suitable for it? It seems like it could disconnect easily and what about the wear?


I've used a USB-C hub for years. It's great. One cable. No wear issues. Doesn't not disconnect without a tug. It's less robust than magsafe, so don't put the cable somewhere you're likely to trip over it.


How much do you move the laptop when it's plugged in to the dock? Would it not usually be stationary near the dock with its own keeb and mouse?
