Belkin USB 2.0 4-Port Ultra Mini Hub F5U407 Reviews
My primitive laptop only has 2 USB ports so i bought 2 of these mini hubs. Now i can plug in all the gadgets i need and they all work perfectly. There are many similar products available that do the same job but cost a lot more. Why buy anything else?

Works fine, but the cord is far too short - Ryan Mitchell - New York
I bought this USB hub to use with my Macbook Pro. As a USB hub, it's perfectly with my Macbook Pro, with absolutely no connectivity problems and all ports working correctly. The problem is with the cord, which is far too short. The cord that plugs into the computer is only about **5" long**, and for me, that negates the usefulness of a USB hub. I'm not even sure I can think of a situation in which a cord this short would be a benefit. br /br /I take my laptop to work almost every day, and I intended to use this device to help me quickly connect/disconnect my USB devices all at once, as well as to move the mess of USB cables from my computer's side to the back of my desk. This hub just made my desk even more of a mess. I have my laptop elevated a few inches on a stand, so when using this device, the actual hub portion dangles down from the USB port of my computer, barely scraping the desk. The short cable means that the tangle of cables plugged into the hub is even more in the way than if they were plugged directly into the computer.br /br /I realize this is called an "ultra mini" hub, but nowhere in the product's description was the cord length given, so there's no way for a buyer to know about this problem, unless he or she happens to see it mentioned in a review. And aside from the primary purpose of providing more ports, many people buy USB hubs to hide the mess of cables, replacing 4 or 6 cables with just 1. So if you're in the market for a USB with a stub of a cord, this works well. If you actually want a cord, look elsewhere.
