One of the best hidden features of Android is something called USB On-The-Go, or USB OTG. Basically, it’s a way of converting the tiny micro USB port found in every Android phone into a full-size USB port, letting you connect peripherals like keyboards and mice, or storage like USB drives and SD cards. This is brilliant for turning your phone or tablet into something closer to a real computer – and today, we’re unveiling a new accessory that lets you go further than ever before. It’s called the UNITEK All-In-One 3-Port USB OTG Hub.
Connect a mouse, keyboard and storage to your Android device
The key innovation here is that you get three full-size USB ports for your Android device. This means you get enough ports to connect a keyboard, a mouse, and a USB drive simultaneously, turning your device into a portable PC.
The hub also includes an SD card reader, so it’s easy to post your camera photos directly to Facebook, Instagram or Twitter, without needing to connect to a computer first.
Finally, you’ll benefit from an integrated smartphone stand, which balances your phone in a convenient position for watching videos or typing onto an attached USB keyboard. The stand can be used with Android devices of up to 8 inches in size.
Use it as a three port charger
You can also use the hub as a three-port mains charger for your mobile devices. With four amps of total output, you’ll be able to charge smartphones and tablets at full speed with ease.
Use it as a USB 3.0 hub on your computer
The final mode is another useful one – you can use it as a USB 3.0 hub on your Mac, Linux or Windows PC. This is a great way to expand limited USB 3.0 ports on a PC or laptop, letting you connect more high-speed devices at once. You also get that built-in SD card reader.
A super handy device to have
The Unitek All-In-One 3 Port USB OTG Hub is one of those useful accessories that you’ll use again and again. Whether you’re at home, at work or on the move, you’ll be glad to have it in your arsenal.
