Nice giveaway! Does anyone know if the HDMI port drives 4K at 60Hz or is it 30Hz like most of the HDMI ports on USB-C hubs these days? Satechi's site doesn't seem to specify the refresh rate.
If you click on the manual they have posted, there is this blurb:Use USB-C port for high speed data transfer (up to 10 Gbps),
PD charging (up to 87W), video output (up to 4K 60Hz).
Not recommended for use with laptop case
But I would also be curious if anyone could confirm they actually have it working.
Thank you Macrumors.
