To recap, HyperDrive is a brand by Sanho Corporation designed to provide high-quality connectivity devices for premium machines. The brand recently introduced Apple-certified USB-C cables and hubs designed for Mac users.

Today, we have two of them—the 6-in-1 USB-C hub for 2021 iMac 24" and USB-C Pro Video Adapter.

Let's have a look at them.

First, we unboxed them. The products arrived in simple packaging with plenty of information showing what the devices can do.

7 color matching covers for you to choose from for the 6-in-1 USB-C hub!

The 6-in-1 USB-C hub for 2021 iMac 24" arrived with the device itself and 7 color matching covers for you to choose from. It also has a screw clamp that can fit on your 2021 iMac 24".

The USB-C Pro Video Adapter is even more simple, with just the USB-C Mini Display Port and HDMI adapter.

For the materials used, both devices are made out of high-quality polycarbonate materials and a flexible cable with rubber coating. The 6-in-1 USB-C hub has a glossy plastic faceplate.

Design-wise, the two are quite nice-looking. The glossy faceplate of the 6-in-1 USB-C hub made it chicer than usual USB-C hubs. It is a little bigger than other USB-C hubs, but it is still lightweight and portable.

The main advantage of this is you can easily mount it on the bezel of your iMac for neat and clean management of cables.

Unfortunately, we do not have an iMac today, but we tried it on a MacBook Pro 13 M1 and it is still not cluttered despite not being mounted anywhere.

For ports, it has 1x HDMI up to 4K 60Hz, 1x SD up to UHS-1 at 104 MB/s, 1x microSD up to UHS-1 at 104 MB/s, 1x USB-C up to 10 Gbps, and 2x USB-A up to 10 Gbps.

Next is the USB-C Pro Video Adapter with an even simpler, but neat look. Except for the small glossy part on the body, this one is not a fingerprint smudge magnet. It measures just 73.8 x 23 x 10 mm, so it is very easy to carry around as well.

For instance, HyperDrive's Pro Video adaptor, 6-in-1 USB-C hub for iMac can expand what you can do with your USB-C capable devices.

The HyperDrive Pro Video adaptor is a USB-C to 4K60Hz Mini DisplayPort and HDMI Adapter designed to connect any USB-C capable device to a bigger screen with up to a 4K resolution and a 60Hz refresh rate. This helps a lot in productivity and presentations. It even provides a better entertainment experience as well.

It adds extra USB ports, HDMI/DisplayPort for video, 3.5mm headphone jack, and SD/microSD slots which in the grand scheme of things will only add functionality to your devices and more opportunity to streamline your workflow.
