What We Liked

The 8-in-1 port selection covers every common need — dual HDMI for multi-monitor setups, 100W PD for MacBook charging, 10Gbps data for fast file transfers, and both SD/microSD for creators. The aluminum build is premium and dissipates heat well.

Dual HDMI output is rare at this price point. Being able to run two external monitors from a single USB-C port is genuinely useful for productivity setups.

Build quality is exactly what you'd expect from Anker — the hub stays cool under load, the connections are solid, and there's no signal drop even with multiple devices connected.

What Could Be Better

Dual HDMI output is limited to 4K@30Hz when both are used simultaneously. Single HDMI can do 4K@60Hz but dual 4K@60Hz requires a Thunderbolt dock.

At $59.99 this is more expensive than the 7-in-1, but the extra HDMI port and higher data transfer speed justify the premium for power users.

No Gigabit Ethernet — if you need wired internet, look at Anker's higher-end docks.

Performance in Daily Use

Tested with MacBook Pro 14-inch over 2 weeks. Dual monitor setup worked reliably — Dell U2720Q at 4K/60Hz primary and Dell P2720Q at 4K/60Hz secondary via the two HDMI ports. 100W PD kept the MacBook charged at full speed even under heavy load. USB-A data transfers at 10Gbps as rated.

Who This Is For

Power users who need dual HDMI output and maximum data transfer speeds. Also ideal for creators who need both SD and microSD slots alongside dual monitor support.


Bottom Line

The Anker 555 is the premium USB-C hub for power users. 8 ports, dual HDMI, 100W PD, and 10Gbps data transfer make it the definitive choice for complex desk setups.
