Review on πŸ’» 12-in-1 USB-C Dual Monitor Docking Station with Triple Display - Dual 4K HDMI+DP, 2 USB3.0+2 USB 2.0, SD/TF, PD, Ethernet, and 3.5mm Audio - Compatible with Dell, Surface, HP, Lenovo Laptops by Chris Kaul

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Short USB-C cable and no extension support.

The design and functionality of this docking station is simply stunning. DisplayPort also supports a resolution of 2560 x 1440 at 144 Hz, which I wasn't expecting. USB-C, DisplayPort, and Ethernet power are currently connected through this dock, and sometimes through a USB-A device or SD card. However, the big problem I have with this product is the cable. The cable itself is quite short, making cable management difficult. Also, I tried returning two separate USB-C extension cables to fix this, but both caused the monitor to flicker constantly despite being compatible with docking stations. I will most likely keep this product as it is the best dock I have seen in Revain that has the features I am looking for but be aware of this issue. If you don't care how cables look and don't mind a shorter cable, this docking station is probably perfect for you. Otherwise, if it's within your budget, I'd advise you to choose something else that allows you to install the dock under your desk, as I've tried.
