(Steam Deck Verified) Works like a charm on Dual QHD 2560x1440 (1440p)
This could be one of those reviews where I tell you how well this works for work Zoom Meetings and the Monthly TPS Excel reports. But my primary concern was the Steam Deck my secondary concern was being able to see more work. Luckily it worked for both.
The Steam Deck is capable of pushing to both 1440p monitors without any issues. I don’t have many AAA games, but if it helps: Hogwarts Legacy ran at full speed on auto detect (medium) graphics. No ghosting, no tearing, no lag. I tried No Man Sky for something with very high particle and blooming. Still ran like a champ. Mafia Definitive Edition runs like Estes Kefauver at a meeting of Murder Incorporated. If it runs on the Steam Deck this hub can push it… Remember my monitors are only QHD 1440p.
One laptop worked amazingly. 1440p Zoom Calls, Excel Spreadsheets as far as the eyes could see. BOTH EMAIL AND CHAT OPEN ON THE SAME SCREEN!
*Car salesman roof slap*
This baby has so many pixels.
The other laptop didn’t support video over USB-C nor Power Delivery. The USB hub worked very well as a USB hub though.
The USB ports are all fast and reliable. My USB 3.x devices have varying speeds. I don’t think any device measured the full through put, but given the equipment I have to work with (it could be the equipments fault) I am happy with a 4.8 out of 5.
Using the power delivery port on this hub will allow you to charge attached devices. Steam Deck charges, Laptops with USB-C Power Delivery charge. Laptops without power delivery will not charge.
The ports with pictures of keyboards, please plug your USB Keyboard and Mouse in these ports. These ports are USB 2.0. They will run slow if any other devices are plugged into them.
If your device does not support Thunderbolt, Alt HDMI, or Displayport over USB-C, You will not be able to use the video ports.
