Most people would agree that the many USB hubs in the market just lack good product design as there are plenty of USB-based products that do not come with a USB connector that is slim and svelte in nature. This will more often than not render adjacent USB ports on the hub itself useless, which is a shame. Brando, the

supplier of all sorts of gadgets and gizmos, has released the USB Twister Hub which comprises of a quartet of USB ports. Each of these individual USB ports are available in a cube design, where a couple of these ports can be rotated around up to 180 degrees each for greater flexibility. The remaining two USB ports remain static, which would come in handy for everyday items such as a mouse and keyboard. The rotatable USB ports are more handy when it comes to weirdly shaped USB thumb drives. This USB 2.0 hub will ship with an AC adapter, which means you can even hook up high-powered USB devices such as printers without missing a beat. Brando is selling the USB Twister Hub for $22 and $26, depending on whether you want the model with the AC Adapter or not.
Pros : Swiveling USB port does not waste adjacent port, can handle high power consumption USB devices, cheap
Cons : Not all ports can be swivelled
