Satechi Multi-Port USB Charging Station has four USB Type-A and two USB Type-C ports

It feels like everything charges by USB nowadays. I suppose that's because a lot of things do -- well, most mobile devices at least. It is actually very cool that regardless of your smartphone, tablet, smartwatch, or something else, you can probably utilize a USB charger.

The problem? Wall outlets can fill up quickly. In a big family, this can lead to fighting. Even if you utilize a power strip, it can be a huge eyesore. Luckily, there are a lot of multi-port USB chargers nowadays. These turn a single wall outlet into a neat-looking powerful charging hub. Today, Satechi announces one that stands out. You see, rather than just offer USB Type-A ports, the 60w Multi-Port USB Charging Station has USB Type-C too. In other words, it is more versatile, and more "future proof" compared to its competitors.

"Featuring four Type-A ports and two Type-C ports, Satechi's new device allows users to charge multiple devices at the same time, in the same place. Whether in a household filled with multiple devices, a crowded office, or a mobile workspace, the Multi-Port USB Charging Station provides users one simple solution to ensuring all devices are juiced with minimal effort and space", says Satechi.

The accessory manufacturer further says, "the Multi-Port USB Charging Station’s compact design (4.5 x 2.75 x 1.13 inches) means users will not only save power outlets, but also desk and countertop space while charging devices. The charging station also makes a great traveling companion, allowing users to pack just one charger to power all their devices without taking up valuable and limited luggage, briefcase or laptop bag space. Additionally, the charging station features an on/off switch to control power without needing to unplug any devices".

This charger looks very well built, and should be brilliant for families that have both Android and iOS users. The Type-C ports are convenient for those with newer Android phones, like the HTC 10 and LG G5. Of course, if those users have a Type-A to Type-C cable, they can use the other ports too.
