THE SHORT ANSWER

Our take

The Anker 332 A8355011 suits a USB-C laptop needing a single HDMI monitor, a few data connections and pass-through charging. Choose it only if 4K/30Hz is sufficient, up to 85W host delivery is enough and Linux compatibility is not required.

Consider it for

A USB-C laptop owner who needs one 4K/30Hz-or-lower external display, three data ports and pass-through charging up to 85W..

Look elsewhere if

It is not for 4K/60Hz output, dual external displays, wired Ethernet, card readers, a laptop needing more than 85W through the hub, or Linux according to the listing.

Pros & cons

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

What works in its favor

  • Amazon identifies the exact black part A8355011 and ASIN B0BQLLB61B.
  • The data USB-C socket and charging-only PD input have separate roles.
  • Anker distinguishes the 100W input rating from up-to-85W laptop output.

What to weigh up

  • The HDMI ceiling is 4K/30Hz rather than 4K/60Hz.
  • There is no listed Ethernet or removable-card reader.
  • A charger is additional and the Amazon description excludes Linux support.

Full review: how the features affect your choice

What the features mean for you

Choose the compact one-display port layout

The Anker 332 routes a USB-C host connection to one HDMI output, two USB-A data ports, one USB-C data port and a separate PD input. That can cover one monitor and several ordinary peripherals without the larger footprint of a full desk dock. It does not include Ethernet or card readers in the documented five-in-one layout. The USB-C data socket is not a second video output, so count only the HDMI port for monitor planning.

Match HDMI to the monitor's required mode

Anker lists HDMI 1.4 up to 4K at 30Hz. A USB-C host must support DisplayPort Alt Mode for the display connection. This makes the hub a poor fit when 4K/60Hz is a must-have, even though the connector can physically attach to a 4K monitor. Check both the computer's USB-C video support and the monitor's resolution and refresh needs before relying on this adapter for a daily workstation.

Budget for the charging overhead and separate adapter

The PD input accepts up to 100W, but Anker rates laptop output at up to 85W. The charger is not included. If the computer normally needs more than 85W, or tends to draw that much under load, the hub's rated ceiling may not meet its power needs. Treat 100W as the input limit and 85W as the stated host maximum; neither figure promises a particular charging speed for every laptop and connected-device load.

Reserve data ports for peripherals and drives

The two USB-A ports and one USB-C data port are each listed up to 5Gbps. The USB-C data socket carries data only, so the monitor connects through HDMI and charging uses the separate PD input. These interface ratings are not a simultaneous-transfer benchmark: devices share the hub's upstream path. Use the data ports for suitable storage and everyday peripherals, and keep the separate connector roles clear when plugging in a charger or monitor.

Check the exact part and operating-system listing

Amazon identifies B0BQLLB61B as a black Anker 332 with manufacturer part A8355011, while Anker calls the family A8355. That supports the direct tagged ASIN link for this part. The Amazon description lists macOS, Windows and ChromeOS support and says Linux is unsupported. Verify the host and operating-system conditions if they are central to the setup.
