Overview

The Anker 551 USB-C Hub (8-in-1, Tablet Stand) is a versatile accessory that combines a tablet stand with an 8-port USB-C hub. It attaches directly to your tablet (iPad, Android, etc.) and provides adjustable viewing angles while adding essential connectivity. With features like USB PD passthrough charging, 4K@60Hz HDMI output, two USB-A 3.1 Gen1 ports, SD/microSD card slots, and a 3.5mm audio jack, this hub turns your tablet into a mini workstation. The folding design makes it travel-friendly, ideal for remote work, creative workflows, or entertainment on the go.
Host connection: USB-C port on tablets (iPad Pro, iPad Air, Android tablets) and laptops. Works with iPadOS, Android, Windows, macOS, Chrome OS. HDMI port: Supports up to 4K@60Hz output. Perfect for connecting external monitors or projectors. USB-A ports: Two ports at 5Gbps each. Suitable for flash drives, mice, keyboards, and other peripherals. Card slots: microSD and SD slots with up to 104MB/s transfer speed. Great for camera memory cards. Audio jack: 3.5mm headphone/speaker output. USB PD passthrough: Allows rapid charging of the tablet while using the hub (requires a separate 45W+ charger). Compatibility is broad, but note that PD charging behavior may vary by tablet model. It also works with most USB-C laptops, though the stand is optimized for tablets.
The Anker 551 USB-C Hub (8-in-1, Tablet Stand) sits in the mid-range segment of USB-C hubs, targeting tablet users who value integrated design and portability. It was first released around late 2021 and is widely available via and other retailers.Check the retailer's page for the latest price. Anker offers an 18-month warranty (extendable upon product registration). The package includes the hub itself and a USB-C to USB-C cable. Its market position is unique: few competitors offer a built-in folding tablet stand with this port selection at this price point. It’s not the most feature-packed hub (no Ethernet, no high-speed data beyond 5Gbps), but for everyday tablet use, the port mix is well balanced.
Tablet-first professionals: If you use an iPad or Android tablet as your primary on-the-go device, this hub adds the missing ports—HDMI for presentations, SD for photo imports, and pass-through charging—all in one integrated stand. It’s especially useful for consultants, designers, or educators who travel light. Creative field workers: Photographers and videographers can quickly offload footage from SD cards while powering the tablet. The 4K HDMI output allows client previews on a larger screen. The foldable stand also serves as a stable platform for touch-based editing. * Home entertainment: Use your tablet as a media player: charge it, output 4K video to your TV, and connect speakers via the audio jack—all while the tablet sits neatly on the built-in stand for comfortable viewing. Not ideal for: Users who need Ethernet, high-speed data beyond USB 3.0, or who want to charge a power-hungry laptop via PD (the hub is designed primarily for tablets; laptop charging may be slower or not supported).
