It’s tough to imagine a time when Black Friday wasn’t a thing, but every year there’s gear to shop and this year is no different, especially if you’re looking for some of the best hubs and docking stations for Apple devices. More specifically, Anker is hosting some incredible deals on its hub and docking solutions for the Apple M Chipset iPad and Mac lineup. USB hubs, if you don’t know, extend your device’s connectivity to plug in both external gear and peripherals. A commonly used function, for example, is to extend the display to multiple external monitors for improved productivity. Of course, they do a lot more than that too, like allowing you to plug in a USB drive, wired mouse, or microSD card via compatible ports. Discover Anker’s “designed for Apple” range and a host of fantastic deals for the holiday season — they make great gifts too!
