THE SHORT ANSWER

Our take

Consider SKU 70406 when the two-plug MacBook fit is suitable and HDMI plus USB-C power delivery matter. Its main compromise is the unresolved USB-A count, so verify the exact port layout before planning a fixed set of peripherals.

Consider it for

A buyer with a listed MacBook generation who can check the two adjacent USB-C ports, accepts removing a case, and can verify the exact port layout before relying on a fixed USB-A count..

Look elsewhere if

Skip it if your computer has only one usable host port, the maker's listed MacBook fit does not cover your model, you need to keep a protective case installed, or a confirmed USB-A count is essential before purchase.

Pros & cons

What could work for you, and what to consider before buying.

What works in its favor

  • UGREEN's official page identifies the 70406 SKU and two adjacent USB-C host plugs.
  • HDMI up to 4K/30Hz, a Thunderbolt 3 video path up to 6K, and USB-C PD up to 100W are advertised.
  • The maker gives model-specific MacBook fit notes and explicitly warns that a protective case must be removed for attachment.

What to weigh up

  • The official specification and comparison table conflict between two and three USB 3.0 outputs.
  • Two adjacent host plugs and the case-removal requirement limit the physical fit.
  • Historical Amazon ASIN B099859WG7 was not verified as a current exact offer, and host-delivered wattage is not separately stated.

Full review: how the features affect your choice

What the features mean for you

Will the two-plug design fit your MacBook?

UGREEN's specification page identifies two USB-C host plugs and positions SKU 70406 as a five-in-two MacBook hub. The dual connection arrangement is a defining fit consideration: check the exact laptop port spacing and the maker's listed supported generations before choosing it. The page's compatibility table covers certain MacBook Pro and Air models from 2018–2020 and M1-era listings. That is product-page guidance, not a guarantee for every computer with USB-C. A single-cable setup or another host may call for a different hub style.

Can you leave a protective case on?

The official page says a protective case should be removed before attaching the hub. That practical note matters because the product uses two adjacent host plugs, and a case can change the clearance around laptop ports. Do not assume the hub will connect through a thick protective cover just because the computer model is listed as compatible. Check the connection geometry and whether removing the case is acceptable in the intended setup. This is a fit limitation expressly called out by the maker, not a general defect claim.

What display mode does HDMI provide?

UGREEN's overview and comparison information list HDMI up to 4K/30Hz. The page also names a 3D mirror mode, but it does not establish how every application or display pairing behaves. Buyers who need a specific refresh rate should compare the stated 30Hz ceiling with the monitor's intended resolution. The product page presents a Thunderbolt 3 video pathway separately; that does not change the HDMI output's stated 4K/30 specification. No performance test is claimed here.

How should you interpret the power and Thunderbolt claims?

The maker page advertises up to 100W USB-C power delivery and a Thunderbolt 3 connection that supports video out up to 6K. These are useful headline functions, but they need to be matched to the exact port roles and host. “Up to” is the product's stated ceiling, not a measured charging rate for every setup. Check the official connection diagram and your laptop power requirements before using the hub as a charging path. The page does not establish a tested load across all outputs at once or separately state the wattage delivered to the computer.

How many USB-A peripherals can stay connected?

The official page is inconsistent: its specification section lists three USB 3.0 outputs, while its comparison table lists two. The hub title's five-in-two wording does not resolve that conflict. This review therefore leaves the exact USB-A count unknown. If a mouse, storage device and another USB-A peripheral must all stay connected at once, confirm the physical layout on the current SKU 70406 page or manual first. Similar UGREEN models may have different port counts and should not be used to choose between the two conflicting entries.

Is a separate hub power adapter listed?

The saved official specifications identify the host plugs, HDMI and USB functions but do not identify a separate hub-power inlet or included AC adapter. Keep that distinct from the USB-C PD charging claim: a power path for the computer and auxiliary power for a hub are different roles. If your setup depends on an external supply, confirm that the exact 70406 package documents one. The available page does not provide a tested power budget for several active peripherals, so do not infer one from the PD headline alone.

Does historical ASIN B099859WG7 identify today's offer?

UGREEN's page supports the SKU 70406 identity and several design claims, but the saved Amazon B099859WG7 detail-page request returned an internal error. The affiliate route is a tagged search for the model. Confirm that a result says 70406 and matches the dual-plug shape, display output and charging description. The result's own current compatibility notes and port diagram should resolve the USB-A count before buying. Customer reviews from the maker page were not used in this profile.

Who should choose this hub?

The supported profile is for someone who wants a MacBook-oriented hub with two host plugs, HDMI, USB-C power delivery and a Thunderbolt 3 video path. Its usefulness depends on physical port spacing and whether the laptop matches the maker's compatibility notes. The unresolved USB-A count is a material constraint for peripheral planning. If the item must meet a fixed port count, verify the exact physical revision. If single-port compatibility or case-on attachment is required, this dual-plug design may not fit the setup described by the product page.

Before you buy

What is the model or SKU?

UGREEN identifies this MacBook hub as SKU 70406.

What HDMI rate does the maker list?

The page lists HDMI up to 4K/30Hz. Its separate Thunderbolt 3 video claim does not change that HDMI specification.

How many USB 3.0 outputs does it have?

The official page conflicts: the specification section lists three and the comparison table lists two. The exact count remains unconfirmed.

Can the hub attach through a protective case?

UGREEN's fit note says to remove a protective case before attaching the hub.

Is historical ASIN B099859WG7 confirmed as a current offer?

No. The saved Amazon detail-page request returned an internal error, so the affiliate destination searches for UGREEN 70406 instead.

Where can I check the current price?

Use the Amazon link for current offers. Check the exact model, seller, product condition, delivery, and return terms. This page does not display a live price or confirm stock.
