It’s two years since I upgraded to an M1 Pro MacBook Pro, and it’s the best Mac I’ve ever owned. The fast M1 Pro chip, the 120Hz ProMotion display, and a great keyboard, it’s all I want from a laptop. It’s only when I use all three of the Mac’s USB-C ports, that a problem occurs.
You see when I connect my Mac to an external monitor, an Ethernet port, and a USB-A to USB-C adapter all at once, everything becomes cluttered for my Mac. Wires for each of these are everywhere on the desk, and there’s not much more I can do. Now that I've spotted this 9-in-1 USB-C dock by Anker for $119, down from $149 before Black Friday has even begun, my mind is already wild with the prospect of all the peripherals I could plug into my Mac with this dock.

The dock features the following ports:
- Headphone jack
- 3 x USB-A ports
- USB-C port
- USB-C port for charging
- 4K HDMI Port
- 4K Display Port
- Gigabit Ethernet Port
All this dock requires is to be plugged into the mains of an office or wherever there’s a socket nearby, a USB-C port from your Mac, then you can go to town with this dock.
No more will I have to ration a USB-C port, to decide if I should use an Ethernet adapter or a USB-A accessory. Now, it’ll be a matter of taking the dock with me, and simply using what’s available to me at that moment. I can’t wait.
