Our take
CB-C36 Silver is a USB-C adapter for a laptop that needs a mix of USB-A speeds, HDMI, SD/microSD access and charging pass-through. LENTION lists three USB 3.0 ports and one USB 2.0 port, HDMI up to 4K/30Hz, dual-card read/write up to UHS-I, and USB-C PD input up to 60W. Its current model matrix leaves CB-C36's Ethernet field blank and places 1000Mbps under the separate CB-D55 model.
A USB-C laptop owner who needs a documented USB-A speed mix, SD/microSD reading, HDMI up to 4K/30Hz and a listed 60W PD input; choose another model if confirmed Ethernet is required..
Choose another model if you require 4K/60Hz, confirmed Ethernet, or a charging rate above the listed 60W PD input maximum.
Pros & cons
What could work for you, and what to consider before buying.
What works in its favor
- Official source distinguishes three USB 3.0 ports from one USB 2.0 port.
- The official page lists SD and microSD readers with simultaneous dual-card use up to UHS-I.
- Silver finish and CB-C36 identity are explicitly named by LENTION.
What to weigh up
- HDMI is listed up to 4K/30Hz, not 4K/60Hz.
- The current matrix and product bullets do not list Ethernet for CB-C36.
- The old Amazon ASIN is not cross-mapped to an exact current offer.

Full review: how the features affect your choice
What the features mean for you
A defined mix for USB-A peripherals
The CB-C36's four USB-A ports are not all the same: LENTION lists three USB 3.0 sockets up to 5Gbps and one USB 2.0 socket. That gives buyers a documented option for mixing storage with lower-demand accessories, while keeping the slower connector available for a mouse, keyboard or receiver. The 5Gbps number is a listed interface maximum and not a promise for every attached drive at once. Check the selected unit's port face and model marking, and keep it separate from CB-C36B, which is a different LENTION model with its own layout.
Select it for the stated HDMI mode
LENTION lists HDMI up to 4K at 30Hz. This is relevant for a secondary display or office monitor where that mode is acceptable; it is a poor match if the workstation depends on 4K/60Hz. The laptop also needs to support USB-C video output, because the connector shape alone does not guarantee a display signal. Before buying, compare the laptop's USB-C capabilities and the monitor's desired resolution and refresh rate with the exact offer. The saved evidence does not establish a broader multi-monitor mode or any guarantee about DRM-protected playback.
Treat the SD and dual-card wording precisely
LENTION's model matrix lists SD and Micro SD for CB-C36, while its feature bullets say the reader supports two cards read and written at the same time up to UHS-I. Together those statements support both reader formats and the maker's simultaneous-use claim. This can suit a file-transfer routine using SD and microSD media without a separate reader. The speed and simultaneous-use language remain manufacturer specifications, not a measured copy result; actual transfers depend on the cards, host and workload. The saved source does not specify card-capacity limits, so confirm those if they matter to your workflow.
Compare PD input with the laptop adapter
The USB-C PD pass-through is listed up to 60W. That is the hub's input-side ceiling, not proof that 60W reaches the laptop while the hub and attached devices are in use. A buyer whose computer needs higher wattage should not assume this adapter replaces the original charger. Confirm the charger's output and the laptop's negotiated charging requirements. The source does not supply a measured delivered-power figure or a complete power budget for attached devices, so keep the delivered host wattage unresolved rather than converting the 60W input number into a laptop output claim.
Do not count this model as an Ethernet hub
The current LENTION comparison matrix places 1000Mbps Ethernet in the CB-D55 column; the CB-C36 column shows no Ethernet entry, and its detailed feature bullets do not list a network jack. Do not choose the Silver CB-C36 to meet a wired-network requirement based on the adjacent model's specification. If Ethernet is important, use a model with an explicit CB-C36 port diagram or select a different hub whose exact model page lists the jack. Historical ASIN B07VN5XMNC remains unmapped, so check the model code and physical layout of any retailer result.
Buy against the model code, not the old row title
LENTION identifies the CB-C36 model and Silver finish, but no saved source maps historical ASIN B07VN5XMNC to the exact current offer. Use the tagged model search and compare the advertised three USB 3.0 plus one USB 2.0 layout, HDMI, card reader and PD socket. The broader manufacturer compatibility list includes laptop families but also notes that some older computers lack needed USB-C features. This review is based on the maker's specification page, not a personal test or customer-rating summary, and it makes no current price or stock claim.
