Amazon is now offering its best price yet on the Kensington SD1700P USB-C and HDMI Hub with Qi charging at $116.52 shipped. Regularly $140, this model launched back in December and has only seen a couple decent price drops since. Today’s offer comes in at nearly 20% off to deliver a new Amazon all-time low. This unique hub solution not only expands your I/O potential both at home and on the go, but also includes a fabric landing pad with a built-in wireless Qi charger up top. Alongside 100W power passthrough, it also features two HDMI ports (up to 4K at 60Hz, or a single 4K at 60Hz monitor for “USB-C enabled iPads and Samsung DeX devices”), one USB-C 3.2 Gen2 (5V/0.9A) port, a pair of USB-A 3.2 Gen2 (5V/0.9A) jacks, and a 1Gb/s Ethernet input. Head below for more details.
If the built-in Qi charging isn’t of interest and you don’t mind going with a less premium solution, the ongoing price drop we were tracking on the latest UGREEN model has now dipped even lower. The regularly $70 solution with its own pair of HDMI ports is now selling for $33 shipped on Amazon, the lowest we have ever tracked.
If you’re interested in a more fully-featured Thunderbolt docking solution, our hands-on reviews of Plugable’s new USB4/Thunderbolt Dual Monitor Dock and OWC’s 11-port Thunderbolt 4 Go Dock are worth a look. Then check out the price drop we are tracking on Satechi’s all-new 16-in-1 variant – it just landed last month and is seeing the second price drop with $56 in savings attached.
