[QUOTE="Raz0rEdge, post: 1873001, member: 110816"] The lack of ports is not a huge deal, you'd just use a USB-C hub that will give you all the extra connectivity that you want. I would suggest that you spend money on a decent brand/model for the hub, otherwise you'll end up wasting a lot of time chasing after bad behavior. Virtually all of the hubs will give you an HDMI, 2x USB type-A ports, RJ45 connector. A lot of them have SD card reader as well. So depending on what you want to plug into the MBA, find the hub that matches. At work, I use a [URL='https://www.amazon.com/dp/B082PFZVZ7/?tag=macforums0e4-20']Wavlink Docking Station[/URL] that runs 2x external monitors up to 4x@60hz and has the necessary interfaces I need. I've also had very good luck with the [URL='https://www.amazon.com/dp/B075FW7H5J/?tag=macforums0e4-20']Satechi USB-C[/URL] hub. [/QUOTE]
