With more and more companies foregoing traditional USB ports for their products (we’re looking at you, Apple), it’s increasingly difficult to find gadgets that play nice together. So you’re stuck either living in a mess of power strips or buying sleek USB hubs with more connectivity options.

Here’s a bunch for every kind of gadget you may or may not have, on sale right now:

You might think of your MacBook Pro as your most prized possession, but you can’t deny that its lack of ports is a huge bummer. Made specifically for the MacBook Pro, this hub extends your computer’s capabilities with its six built-in ports: two USB-C, two USB-A 3.0, an SD, and a microSD slot. It even offers 40GBps power delivery and allows for rapid data transmission. Grab it on sale now for $39.99.

Engineered with seven (count them!) different ports, this USB hub dramatically expands your laptop’s connectivity. It features two USB-A 2.0 ports, a USB-C port, an HDMI port, a TF port, an SD card slot, and an Ethernet port. The best part is that it’s capable of providing 100W of power to keep your laptop energized and comes with dual 4K video output for use with your 4K display. Right now, you can snag it for $44.99.

Perfect for presenting decks and videos, this USB-C hub lets you do away with connecting a device to the monitor and enables you to transmit data straight from your computer or smartphone.

This four-port hub allows you to transfer data on the fly in record speeds. It supports transfers of up to 5Gbps and is backward compatible with USB 2.0. When you’re not transmitting files, it can function as a power adapter to refuel your tech collection. It’s now on sale for $13.99.

Ideal for photographers and videographers, this five-in-one card reader hub makes it easy for you to transfer photos and video files from your camera, GoPro, or drone in a snap.
