Review on StayGo USBC Travel: Twelve South's Ultimate Solution for Portable USB-C Connectivity by Kevin Hawkins

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Better than expected

I only have about 24 hours but I have no hesitation in saying that this little one has exceeded my expectations. I have a Surface Pro 7 and was looking for an affordable dock that has power pass-through, acts as a USB hub, and can connect USB-C to HDMI without costing me a few hundred bucks. That fits the bill. The form factor is even smaller than I expected, which is a plus since I'm currently working with limited desk space, but it still has everything you need and feels surprisingly solid and firm (Surface Pen next to it for reference). The included 1m C-to-C cable with 90° end is a must. Moa! Makes the whole installation much cleaner. Can't stand the top position of the Surface port, but that softens it up as much as possible. I bought a 100W USB-C charger which I stumbled upon as the device itself draws around 15W and then needs at least 65W for the Surface and the extra bit there for my external SSD and a few peripherals enough. There's a little more wiring, but the form factor of this thing is amazing. I'll update if I run into any issues or burnouts, but first impressions wowed me. Definitely recommend!
