complete junk. look up reviews online before buying. This mouse works flawlessly for windows pc but have been a complete nightmare for MAC OS. Specifically m1 Macs. No useable at all~cursor jitters. According to their "troubleshooting" guide is the Unified usb have to be directly plugged into the Mac. Well Logi....its 2021 most laptops don't have usb A, especially Macs. So 99.9% of apple owners are screwed from the get go.

pre order process was simple but was misguided by the local rep there. Was told it was ready to be used and doesn't need to be activate by an employee over at the mobile department. Not the case, Phone needs be activate by a staff there. Great phone overall but Samsung is better ;)

The jack of all Multi-Port adapter for the MacBook
By J0A0A7 from Dallas, TX
As much I enjoyed using my MacBook Air M1, the lack of ports can be a bummer sometimes. With just 2 ports it doesn’t take much to utilize both for charging and displaying to an external monitor. It’s an inconvenience having to unplug one of them to connect my external drive or USB receiver for my keyboard and mouse. The Satechi USB C on the go multiport adapter is the solution to my port problems.
A quick rundown of the specs:
1x HDMI port supports up to 4K 60hz
1x VGA port supports up to 1080P
1x USB C Port with PD charging up to 100W (15W is used to power the adapter)
1x Gigabit Ethernet Port
2x Full-size USB A 3 Ports for Data only
1x USB C for Data only
Micro/SD Card reader slots
One of the features I like is the ability to disconnect the USB C cable and store it away within the adapter. A longer cable is included in case it’s needed. Not only do I like this for portability but for longevity too. With multi-port adapters that have the cable attached you end up being at the mercy of the cable. When the cable goes out you end up with a paper-weight adapter. Having the flexibility of using the short or long cable is a big plus for me since depending on where I’m stationed, there are times a longer cable would have been handy.
I had no issues using the adapter with my MacBook Air M1 to connect my external 24inch monitor (1080p @ 165hz support too), USB receiver for my MX Keyboard and Mouse, external drive while it was charging my device at full speed. The same setup also worked on my Windows laptop. I was able to confirm that it worked with my iPad Mini 6 and Galaxy Note 20 Ultra and Tab S7+ with Dex Support. Now the adapter did get slightly warm but nothing to the point of concern when it was charging my devices like the MacBook and Windows laptop.
One of the features I wasn’t able to test was the VGA port. To be honest I’m still trying to find a reason that would be needed to be used now that most of the displays out there have transitioned over to HDMI and DVI out. Instead of a VGA port, I would of prefer to have seen another HDMI port to drive 2 monitors or a headphone jack.
Overall I was very satisfied with the Satechi adapter. It has a high-end look to it that looks like it was made from Apple itself. The color almost matches my Space Gray MacBook. It also comes in slightly cheaper compared to other multi-port adapters around this price range.

Are you running Monterey? I'm unable to get 4k60, even bought another one to see if its defective per Satechi recommendation. Both units are locked at 4k30. Any help would be appreciated. 2020 m1 mbp.

Upgrade your Compustar RS1B-DC3, RS1B-AL, CS4905S-KIT, CSX4905S-KIT or RSG6-AL to a full featured vehicle security system with the FT-ALARMIT-KIT.
 

Just recently had BBY installed my Compustar 4905s unit and regret not adding the alarm system. Are these unit plug and play or do they need to be software activated at the module?
