Having to move my desk off of the wall to manage ports on the mini’s backside can be very annoying. It’s not even really the ports themselves that are a huge deal, but it’s the handy placement and overall package that helps everyday usability. Satechi’s Mac mini hub gives you 6 extra ports - three extra USB 3 ports, a USB-C port, a 3.5mm headphone jack, and a full-sized and micro SD card slot.
Thankfully, Satechi has designed a sleek and functional USB-C Hub for the new Mac mini. The SD card slot in particular has been missed on this latest-generation mini.
The Mac mini, while a great device, has lacked some essential I/O since the 2018 refresh.
