Baseus UltraJoy 5-Port USB-C Hub is available at Mascom International for KSh 5,000, brand new and sealed, with HDMI 4K output, three USB-A 3.0 ports and 100W charging pass-through. The Baseus UltraJoy 5-Port USB-C Hub plugs into one USB-C port on a laptop, tablet or phone and spreads it into five connections. Its aluminium alloy shell weighs about 56 grams and measures 105 by 36.6 by 12 mm, so it slips into the front pocket of a laptop sleeve. You can see and test it at our store in the Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD.
Built for university students, accountants, sales teams and developers across Kenya, the Baseus UltraJoy 5-Port USB-C Hub solves a common problem with thin modern laptops. A MacBook Air or slim Windows ultrabook may carry only two USB-C ports, and the charger usually takes one of them. That leaves no room for a flash drive, a wired mouse or the projector in an Upper Hill boardroom. With this hub, the charger moves to the PD port, a monitor takes the HDMI port, and three USB-A ports stay free for a keyboard, mouse and drive at the same time.
Unlike other electronics retailers in Kenya that sell unbranded hubs from open bins, Mascom International stocks the genuine Baseus UltraJoy 5-Port USB-C Hub in sealed retail packaging. Cheap copies often drop the HDMI picture when a laptop wakes from sleep, or run hot while charging passes through. Customers across Nairobi tell us they want one adapter they can trust for presentations, Zoom calls and end-of-month KRA iTax filing. Visit the store to plug the Baseus UltraJoy 5-Port USB-C Hub into your own laptop before paying, or order on WhatsApp for pay-on-arrival delivery anywhere in Kenya.
Common Questions About the Baseus UltraJoy 5-Port USB-C Hub
How much is the Baseus UltraJoy 5-Port USB-C Hub in Kenya?
The Baseus UltraJoy 5-Port USB-C Hub costs KSh 5,000 brand new at Mascom International in Nairobi CBD. That price includes a 6-month warranty and pay-on-arrival delivery across Kenya, so you inspect the hub before handing over cash or M-Pesa. A USB-C charger and HDMI cable are not included; both are sold separately in store. The Baseus StarJoy 6-Port USB-C Hub costs KSh 500 more and adds Gigabit Ethernet, while the Baseus Metal Gleam 4-Port USB-C Hub costs the same KSh 5,000 with USB-A ports only.
Will the Baseus UltraJoy 5-Port USB-C Hub work with my MacBook or Windows laptop?
The Baseus UltraJoy 5-Port USB-C Hub works with USB-C laptops running Windows, macOS and Linux, with no driver to install. The USB-A ports and charging pass-through work on almost any USB-C laptop. The HDMI port needs one extra feature: your USB-C port must carry video, known as DisplayPort Alt Mode, or be a Thunderbolt port. Most MacBooks, HP EliteBooks, Dell Latitudes and Lenovo ThinkPads from recent years have this. Some budget laptops use USB-C for data alone, so bring yours to Mascom International for a counter test.
Can I charge my laptop through the Baseus UltraJoy 5-Port USB-C Hub while I use it?
Yes, the Baseus UltraJoy 5-Port USB-C Hub has a USB-C Power Delivery port that accepts a charger of up to 100W and passes power on to your laptop. Plug your laptop's own USB-C charger into that port, and the laptop, the hub and every connected device run from the wall. The hub keeps a small share of the power for itself, so the laptop receives a little less than the charger's rating. A 65W charger suits most office ultrabooks, while gaming laptops may charge more slowly.
Should I buy the Baseus UltraJoy 5-Port USB-C Hub or the Baseus StarJoy 6-Port USB-C Hub?
Choose the Baseus UltraJoy 5-Port USB-C Hub at KSh 5,000 for the lightest travel hub, and the Baseus StarJoy 6-Port USB-C Hub at KSh 5,500 if you need wired internet. Both offer HDMI 4K, three USB-A 3.0 ports and 100W charging pass-through. The six-port model adds a Gigabit Ethernet socket for an office network or fibre router. This five-port hub weighs about 56 grams against roughly 113 grams, and its 22 cm cable is slightly longer. Students and frequent travellers usually pick the five-port; desk workers pick the six-port.
Is the 4K at 30Hz HDMI output on the Baseus UltraJoy 5-Port USB-C Hub good enough?
For office work, presentations and films, the 4K at 30Hz HDMI output of the Baseus UltraJoy 5-Port USB-C Hub is enough. 30Hz means the picture refreshes 30 times a second, which looks normal for spreadsheets, documents, slides and most video. On a 4K monitor, fast scrolling can feel slightly less fluid than on the laptop's own screen. Most projectors and TVs in Kenyan offices and lecture halls run at 1080p, where the hub sends a clean full HD picture. Gamers and video editors should look at a dedicated docking station.
What happens to the Baseus UltraJoy 5-Port USB-C Hub during a KPLC power cut?
During a KPLC power cut, the Baseus UltraJoy 5-Port USB-C Hub keeps working from your laptop's battery, so your mouse, keyboard and flash drive stay connected. Charging pass-through stops when the wall socket goes dead, and the laptop starts powering the hub and everything plugged into it. That drains the battery a little faster, so unplug an external hard disk if the outage looks long. If your office has a UPS, plug the laptop charger into it and the hub carries on normally. Charging resumes on its own when power returns.
Who should buy the Baseus UltraJoy 5-Port USB-C Hub, and who should skip it?
The Baseus UltraJoy 5-Port USB-C Hub suits students, consultants, accountants and sales staff who carry a thin laptop and need HDMI, USB-A and charging from one port. It also suits anyone presenting in boardrooms or lecture halls from Westlands to Eldoret. Skip it if your office connects by Ethernet cable; the Baseus StarJoy 6-Port USB-C Hub adds that socket. Skip it too if you need an SD card reader or two external monitors, which call for a larger dock. For extra USB-A ports alone, the Baseus Metal Gleam 4-Port USB-C Hub fits better.
Can I use the Baseus UltraJoy 5-Port USB-C Hub with an Android phone or iPad?
Yes, the Baseus UltraJoy 5-Port USB-C Hub works with many USB-C phones and tablets for keyboards, mice and flash drives. Samsung Galaxy phones and tablets that support Samsung DeX can show a desktop view on a TV or monitor through the HDMI port. USB-C iPad models can mirror the screen and open files from a flash drive in the Files app. Video output depends on the phone, since many budget Android models do not send video over USB-C. Bring your phone to Kimathi Street and we will test it first.
Technical Specifications
Core Function and Port Layout
- HDMI port at up to 4K resolution and 30Hz — connects a monitor, TV or projector for slides, spreadsheets and films.
- Three USB-A 3.0 ports rated up to 5Gbps — copies big folders from a flash drive or external disk in good time.
- USB-C Power Delivery port accepting up to 100W — your laptop charger plugs in here, so the laptop charges while you work.
- Five connections from one USB-C plug — frees your laptop's remaining ports for a second device or a phone cable.
- Plug and play operation — Windows and macOS recognise the hub as soon as it connects, with nothing to download.
- Bus-powered design — the hub draws its running power from the laptop, so no separate power brick travels with it.
Display and Data Performance
- Single HDMI screen at a time — the hub extends or mirrors your desktop onto one monitor, TV or projector.
- 4K at 30Hz on a 4K monitor — sharp text for spreadsheets, though fast scrolling looks smoother at 1080p.
- Full HD output at 1080p — matches most projectors in Kenyan offices, churches and lecture halls without adjustment.
- USB 3.0 transfer rate up to 5Gbps — a phone-sized video folder copies in a fraction of USB 2.0 time.
- Shared bandwidth across the three USB-A ports — copying from two drives at once splits the speed between them.
Compatibility and Device Support
- Works with Windows, macOS and Linux computers fitted with a USB-C port, including Thunderbolt 3 and Thunderbolt 4 ports.
- HDMI needs a USB-C port that carries video — look for a small D-shaped display icon or lightning symbol beside the port.
- USB-A ports accept older gear — keyboards, mice, printers and USB 2.0 flash drives work as normal at their own speed.
- Fits USB-C iPad models and Samsung Galaxy tablets — handy for typing lecture notes or moving photos onto a flash drive.
- Charging pass-through accepts standard USB-C PD chargers — the same charger that came with a MacBook, EliteBook or ThinkPad.
- Desktop PCs with a USB-C port can use it as a port expander — useful when the rear USB sockets are hard to reach.
Build and Portability
- Aluminium alloy shell — draws heat away from the circuitry and shrugs off knocks in a backpack during a daily matatu commute.
- 105 x 36.6 x 12 mm body — shorter than a ballpoint pen, so it fits a laptop sleeve pocket without a bulge.
- About 56 grams — lighter than most phones, adding almost nothing to the weight of a work bag.
- 22 cm attached cable — lets the hub lie flat beside the laptop, which takes strain off the laptop's USB-C port.
- Attached cable design — the lead cannot go missing the way a detachable cable can in a crowded bag.
- Gray finish — blends with silver and grey laptops; confirm the shade on the shelf over WhatsApp before ordering.
Inclusions and Ownership
- Supplied as the hub with its built-in USB-C cable, sealed in Baseus retail packaging.
- No charger included — reuse your laptop's USB-C charger, or buy a compatible one at Mascom International.
- No HDMI cable included — Mascom International sells HDMI cables separately for monitors, TVs and projectors.
- 6-month Mascom International warranty against manufacturing defects, handled at our Nairobi CBD service desk.
- Pay-on-arrival delivery to all 47 counties — check the hub works before any money changes hands.
- Counter testing with your own laptop — confirm HDMI and charging support on your exact model before paying.
Package Contents
The Baseus UltraJoy 5-Port USB-C Hub arrives sealed in Baseus retail packaging, with the hub body and its attached 22 cm USB-C cable as one piece. There is no charger or HDMI cable in the box, because the hub reuses the laptop charger you already own and the display cable you already use. If you need either, Mascom International sells compatible USB-C chargers and HDMI cables separately, and we can bundle them on the same delivery.

Mascom International covers the Baseus UltraJoy 5-Port USB-C Hub with a 6-month warranty against manufacturing defects under normal use. This includes faults in the HDMI, USB-A and charging ports and the attached cable. Claims are handled at our Nairobi CBD service desk on Kimathi Street.
