As its the first generation of M1 chips, there are going to be loads of issues like these which will become apparent over the course of the next few months and I wish everyone best of luck with their M1 devices - they're the future! My advice to anyone reading, is not to use an USB C hub with Power Delivery, regardless of brand - even ones from apple. When I received my MacBook, I am going to use it with my original USB C hub (the one without Power Delivery) and hopefully that will be it. Whether or not my MacBook has been replaced or repaired is yet unknown, I'll be able to tell as there was a small scratch on the wrist rest, but I'm hoping that is it done now and I wont have this issue again. I logged onto the apple support website, and I have been informed that my product has been shipped and is on its way back to me with UPS, this should take 2 working days to get to me. This afternoon, I received an email from Apple saying that 'Your repair request is complete' I will keep everyone updated as and when I find out and might I suggest avoiding USB C hubs with Power Delivery! After reading through this thread, I am not the only one with this issue and from reading others, I should receive an replacement unit within the next couple of weeks. I just wanted to use this thread to share my experiences with you and document my repair process. Today (2/2/21) I received an email saying that they have received my Macbook with the message "We’re looking at your product." They advised me that I needed to ship it back to them for return (Apple stores closed bc of lock down) I was then sent a box to ship it back to them, last week (27/1/21) and I sent it off to them the same day. Everything died, the Macbook refused to turn back on, I tried all the reset commands and got into contact with Apple first thing the next morning. The screen flashed for a brief second and then went black. I had been downstairs using my Macbook as a normal laptop, and when I was done, I closed the lid, carried it up to my desk, placed it down and then plugged in USB C hub with everything connected.
Usb hub for mac that will also charge devices free#
I then plugged in my keyboard, mouse, Ethernet and monitor into this USB C hub, along with the Macbook charger (so that I had a free USB C port on my Macbook), all was working perfectly fine until 21st January. At Christmas, I got another ZMUIPNG USB C hub, but this one had power delivery. Hi all, I purchased an M1 Macbook Air in November 2020, and was using it as my main computer along side an ZMUIPNG USB C hub, this was all working perfectly well and I had no issues. I'd like to try and keep discussion about experience with Apple store staff etc to somewhere else, just to give some clarity! Sources of other areas this has been reported or acknowledged If someone posted about the same hub you used, try to reply in line. Brand and model of USB-C device used during a failure.
Lets try and keep replies to this thread relating to: It's as if it has no power.ĭoes anyone else have this issue? Have specific information on it? I personally have had two M1 Macs fail now - one took nearly 3 weeks to go, one lasted 30 minutes. When experienced, the Mac will simply go completely blank and then be totally unresponsive. Here is an example of a device that has been reported to have bricked an M1 Mac Pro: It seems there is potentially an issue with M1 Mac's and USB-C Hubs, possibly specifically related to power delivery capable ones.
