Modern ultrabooks have cut their port count to two or three USB-C sockets. That leaves accountants in Upper Hill with no way to plug in a monitor, photographers in Karen with nowhere to insert an SD card, and university students in Juja carrying three separate dongles in one bag. The Green Lion 7-in-1 USB-C Hub answers that in a single cable. Plug it into a MacBook Air, Dell XPS, HP Spectre, Lenovo ThinkPad, or a Samsung Galaxy Tab, and you get a display output, a card reader, five USB ports, and a charging line at once. Boardroom presenters, videographers, remote workers, and IT technicians all use it the same way  one connection, everything back.

Unlike other electronics retailers in Kenya who stock unbranded hubs with no warranty and no return path, Mascom International backs the Green Lion 7-in-1 USB-C Hub with a written 6-month warranty and a service desk you can walk into. Users consistently report that the aluminum shell runs cooler than plastic hubs during long transfers, and at KSh 3,000 the Green Lion 7-in-1 USB-C Hub costs less than most single-purpose HDMI adapters sold in Kenyan shops. Come test it against your own laptop at Kimathi Street, or order for pay-on-arrival delivery anywhere in Kenya.

Any device with a USB-C port that supports data and video output over that port. That covers MacBook Air and MacBook Pro models from 2016 onward, Dell XPS and Latitude, HP EliteBook and Spectre, Lenovo ThinkPad and Yoga, ASUS Zenbook, Samsung Galaxy Tab S series, iPad Pro and iPad Air, and USB-C Android phones with display output. The hub is plug-and-play, so Windows 11, macOS, ChromeOS, and Android load it without drivers. Bring your laptop to Kimathi Street and we will test it in front of you.

The HDMI port outputs 4K at 30Hz, or 1080p at 60Hz. That distinction matters. At 4K 30Hz, the screen refreshes 30 times per second  fine for spreadsheets, Zoom calls, Google Meet, PowerPoint decks, and film playback, but visibly choppy for fast mouse movement or gaming. If you drive a 4K monitor for coding or editing all day, run it at 1080p 60Hz through this hub, or step up to a hub with HDMI 2.0. For meeting-room projectors and TVs across Nairobi offices, 4K 30Hz is more than enough.

Yes. The Type-C port accepts PD 87W passthrough, so you plug your existing laptop charger into the hub and the hub feeds power to the laptop while running the monitor, drives, and card reader. An 87W ceiling covers a 13-inch and 14-inch MacBook Pro, most ThinkPad and EliteBook chargers at 65W, and every 45W ultrabook brick. A 16-inch MacBook Pro that ships with a 96W or 140W adapter will charge, only slower. Expect roughly 10W to 15W lost to the hub itself and connected peripherals.

It removes a dongle from the bag. Slot a full-size SD card from a Canon, Nikon, or Sony body straight into the reader, or a microSD from a DJI drone or GoPro through the TF slot. Wedding shooters in Nakuru and event videographers around Nairobi typically fill 128GB cards per job. Over a 5Gbps USB 3.0 lane, real-world offload of a 128GB card lands around 12 to 20 minutes, limited by your card's own read speed rather than the hub.

Because cheap hubs fail in three predictable ways. They drop the monitor signal when the chip overheats, they under-deliver charging current and slowly drain your laptop while plugged in, and they corrupt files mid-transfer on unshielded USB lanes. The Green Lion 7-in-1 USB-C Hub uses an aluminum alloy body that pulls heat away from the controller, and it ships with a 6-month Mascom International warranty. At Mascom International, we're seeing customers replace their third generic dongle in a year  this one ends that cycle.

All seven advertised connections at once, within reason. A typical Nairobi desk setup runs an external monitor on HDMI, a keyboard and mouse on two USB 2.0 ports, an external SSD on USB 3.0, a phone charging on a second USB-A, an SD card in the reader, and the laptop charger on the Type-C input. The one caution: two bus-powered external hard drives spinning together may exceed the available current. Connect the PD charger when you load the hub heavily.

For most setups, yes. At 16.7cm the cable reaches around the side of a laptop and lets the hub body rest flat on the desk instead of hanging off the port and straining it. That matters on thin machines where a rigid dongle levers against the socket every time you shift the laptop. The cable is fixed to the hub, not detachable, so it cannot be swapped for a longer run. If your monitor sits far back, add an HDMI extension rather than moving the hub.
