I was looking for a new USB-c hub and came across this article. It's an interesting write-up of what is on the inside of some popular options

Thank you! I had an Anker hub in the past, but had some trouble with the Ethernet dropping when using it heavily (ex. during a zoom meeting or when moving large files). I'm not sure if that was an Anker issue or just something with hubs in general. I'm still open to another Anker one, but I was looking for other options as well

We use UGREEN ones at work, and they seem to do the job well so far. 100W PD, HDMI and ethernet working well.

My UGREEN came with a dead ethernet port, so they are also a hit and a miss.

Everyone can have duds, it's how they handle it. I've found their support to be good.
