⭕ With HyperDrive, you get the most commonly used ports, found in preceding 2015 MacBook Pro model. This is the adapter Apple should have provided with every 2016 MacBook Pro.

Many 5Gb/s dongles have multiple ports that cannot be reliably used at the same time because of speed and bandwidth limitations. Only HyperDrive has the high 50Gb/s speed and bandwidth required for all 7 ports to be used simultaneously.

The Thunderbolt 3 port on HyperDrive supports up to 100W power delivery. This means you can charge your MacBook Pro at full speed through HyperDrive while using it, delivering the maximum 61W power to the 13 MacBook Pro and 87W to the 15 MacBook Pro.

Compared to other dongles in the market and from the Apple Store, HyperDrive is more portable, has more features and is made of better materials. You would need multiple dongles to achieve what HyperDrive does, at a total cost much higher than HyperDrive.
