Review on πŸ”Œ StarTech.com USB C Multiport Adapter - USB-C to DVI-D (Digital) Video Adapter with Power Delivery, GbE, USB-A - Portable USB Type-C/Thunderbolt 3 Mini Laptop Dock (DKT30CDVPD) by Will Schimmel

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Works out of the box, USB2/3 switch also affects Ethernet speed

My experience with startech products has always been good and this device is no exception. It just works, the display signal at 4K @ 60Hz is correct (I had some problems with the 13-in-1 anchor). I tested with MacOS 11.4 and Linux, all ports work out of the box. Power Delivery looks good, my Macbook Pro hasn't complained. The USB2/3 switch is useful, but there's a catch: when set to USB2, the network device connects through a USB2 hub, severely limiting bandwidth. If your setup calls for Gigabit Ethernet and 4K at 60Hz, you'll have to forgo one of these. I have a spare Anker USB-C to HDMI adapter (4K@60Hz) and a TB3 connector so Gigabit Ethernet works.

Pros
