It's so weird how all of these hubs have only 1 or 2 USB C slots. They always have more Type A slots than C.
Someone should make one that is 3 or 4 USB C slots and 1 A.

Though I haven't used this one specifically These are handy for hooking up a USB device AND using regular wired headphones to an IPAD (pro in my case) for essentially 0 latency. Bluetooth ones have a good 30+ ms of latency. YMMV of course.

Only 2 or 3 of the reviews on Amazon mention anything about the audio jack.
And most of those mention that the jack is bad or fails.

Not trying to be a thread crapper but $20 is not a deal for a type-c USB hub. I just looked at my Amazon order history and in the last 6 months, I have impulse bought 3 different type-c hubs to use with my phone for Samsung Dex and the total of those 3 orders was ~$28. Some of these type-c hubs are way too expensive compared to some of the deals you can find if you browse Amazon a little and set a Slickdeals notification. It isn't the same as it was a few years ago. There are a ton of quality options that run coupons and sales for these types of hubs. At this point, I would never pay more than $15 for a larger, feature filled hub.

Also, keep in mind that not all hubs are the same. I have 4 total and some I bought for their small size with the inputs I wanted and others are larger with more versatility for USB, memory cards, monitor output, ect. If $20 is nothing to you and you just want a hub, sure, grab this one. If you aren't in need right now and can stand a few minutes of browsing over the next few days, you are likely to find something much better priced that still fits your needs.

Just some of many options available at time of posting, that I own, that might still fit users needs:

$12 - https://a.co/d/0WbN1D2

$14 - https://a.co/d/i1WjH13

USB-C is just a form factor. The USB C you are seeing in hubs like this is just for connecting to a power adapter no data, so there arent any hubs that you've seen that has "usbc" downstream ports by your definition. If you want multiple "usb c" ports downstream then you'll only find that in a thunderbolt hub - that takes usb-c thunderbolt input and splits to other thunderbolt ports.

Had the next level upgrade of this exact same Anker USB-C hub which died on me twice. First time the HDMI port stopped working and was luckily still within the return window, so ordered a replacement. The second one had itsit's3.55 audio out jack stop working (internet research shows multiple reports of weak solder joints inside these hubs causing easy breaks during routine usage connecting/disconnecting peripherals). Hate to say it, but Anker is not the go-to brand for anything hub related for me. Have had good luck with their power banks and cables in the past at least.

I don't think so. This is a 10gbps hub, and a monitor with those specs would use 15.93gbps according to this:

Edit: But maybe I'm wrong, because the hub's description claims it can do 4k60, and that would use 14.93gbps according to that chart.

Both models I linked are rated for 4K@30hz which SHOULD translate to a capability of output of 1440p@60hz or 1080p@120hz depending on the display you are sending the signal to and what your HDMI cable is capable of. I'll try to find an app that lets me measure that and report back

UPDATE: Yes, both models that I linked will allow 1080p@60hz

confirmation process - using my Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra, I enabled a developer option to show refresh rate of the display in use. I hooked each hub up to a portable monitor and played a movie and it was output at 1080p@60hz

Pardon, what I meant was 4k@60hz.

Below model seems to support this resolution.
