Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Targus 4-Port USB 2.0 Ultra Mini Hub PA055U (Black)
Customer Review: Great, compact usb hub for mobile or desktop users!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is an excellent usb hub for the price. Very compact and very light. It doesn't take up too much space at all. Also, it's powered thru USB so you do not need to deal with an AC adaptor. I have a couple of USB devices that are powered through the USB port as well and my concern was whether they would still be active through this hub. I plugged both into the hub and both were powered up!!
And the 4 ports light up with a nice blue led color that's looks really cool!! Targus should show this in their ads/marketing material because it definitely makes the hub look much cooler!
This is a great bargain and perfect for people that need a simple & compact USB hub for all their gadgets.
Definitely recommended!!
Customer Review: Great product!
Summary: 5 Stars
I opted to buy this for my HTPC rather than get a wireless keyboard/mouse setup that would have cost 60 bucks. It has ample cord amount to extend usb devices out from the PC. Works perfectly anytime I plug in devices although I have yet to try using 5 devices at once. When a device is plugged in, the clear part lights up in a sweet blue led color. The cord can actually come off of it which reveals a mini USB connection.(so if anything happens to the cord you can probably use any other mini USB cord you have laying around).
Product does what it claims to do in a perfect fashion and was relatively inexpensive. I am extremely satisfied and highly recommend this product.
Customer Review: Exactly what I needed
Summary: 5 Stars
I got sick of having to pull USB cables out of my computer everytime I needed to free up a plug for my printer, and I realized that this is exactly what I needed. So far I am loving this thing. It has freed up alot of clutter on my desk and you can't put a price on the time it has saved me from never having to unplug USB cables again. Also, it will power up any devices you have that are powered through USB such as a rechargable mouse. This is important as some USB hubs don't have this feature. The blue lights on it are also cool. It even has a plug for an AC adaptor, in case you need to plug devices into it without it being plugged into a computer.Customer Review: No surprises!
Summary: 5 Stars
I read that a couple people mentioned that the cord was shorter then they wanted (2ft). I thank those for their review because it now ships with the longer 4ft cord! Perfect for my desktop since PC is a ways away and saves the reach and the excess wear and tear on PC USB port. I have my USB wireless mouse receiver and various USB flash drives plugging in and out with zero issues. Dont even know its there and being shared. My external powered 1T WD drive works fine on it also. The mild light to show which ports are used is perfect, better then the cheaper hub on my laptop that could spot an aircraft in cloudy weather its so bright.Customer Review: Great Device
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a great product at a great price. I bought one of these for my laptop to add to the number of USB ports available. I liked it so much, I bought another for my desktop to simply make the ports more accessible. The supplied cord is plenty long to reach the desktop on the floor and then I simply Velcro'ed the Targus to my desk to make plugging and unplugging USB devices much more convenient. The Targus works right out of the box, no install required and it works on every computer I've tried -- no problems. I must confess, the blue LED's look pretty cool too!
