Accessories for the Cube i9

[.oOOo.]

When you’re looking for a charger for your Cube i9, you need to look for a charger that supports “Power Delivery” (PD). These chargers are also used for the Google Pixel and for the MacBook 2016.

Not all chargers work for all devices. This Anker PowerPort+ 5 USB-C with USB Power Delivery works for the Cube:

It does not charge very fast though. Top charging rate I’ve seen up till now is 13.5 Watts.

[.oOOo.]

I’ve bought two USB-C hubs. The cheapest one of the two performs best in my personal setup.

I paid approximately € 24 for this VicTop USB Type C Hub. It is currently not available on Amazon, but maybe you can find it somewhere else:

https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B01BTXD9OU/

[.oOOo.]

The more expensive one of the USB-C hubs I bought, is the same hub Chris tested as well. It is the HAVIT USB 3.1 Type-C Hub. I paid € 60, but it is now a bit more expensive:

https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B01IMP08TM/

It works very well when I use it standalone, but the HDMI connection will occasionally display glitches when I connect it using a USB Type-C extension cable. The VicTop USB Type-C hub above works flawless with the same setup.

XtremeGuard sells “full body” protectors which allow you to also protect the back of your tablet. I’ve applied a Surface 4 “Tab Back Only Protector” to the back of my Cube i9. Don’t be fooled by the regular prices on the website, you never need to pay the full price:

At this moment there is a 92% discount when you use the coupon code Cyber92 . You need to buy two items, but this back only protector will cost you $2.00 + shipping.

I would be willing to buy it just to test it, but I definitely don’t want to fry my Cube i9 :S

If you Google for Benson Leung Ugreen you’ll discover that the Ugreen cables are usually not good. So I would not buy an untested charger from them with zero reviews on Amazon.

But maybe buying a really good Power Delivery charger right now turns out to be impossible.
