Works with Macbook Pro and Chromebook

Cons
  • disappears

Short Cable - Computers and Accessories

The docking station is fine but the cable that connects to the laptop is very short (4"). Because the cable is on one side and it is my connector On the other hand, I had to turn it upside down on my laptop to plug it in. The cable is just annoying.

Pros
  • This is amazing
Cons
  • Available in white only

Good cheap but stylish home docking station

Stylish home docking station. It doesn't power the laptop unless you buy an additional USB-C charger, but this is easily solved by connecting the laptop to its own charger and then to the dock's USB cable.

Pros
  • Handy item
Cons
  • Some problems

Great docking station and cheaper than branded products.

I have an older monitor with a USB-B connector. This dock has this connector. It also has SD and Micro SD card readers. It's relatively cheap. It works great and I can connect older electronics, so what's not to like? I'm glad I found him.

Pros
  • Dope πŸ”₯
Cons
  • Bad instructions

Displayport not working properly with MacBook Pro

The DisplayPort interface is behaving very strangely on the 2019 MacBook Pro. When the laptop lid is open, this docking station can drive a 60 Hz DisplayPort display. With the lid closed, the frequency inexplicably and unacceptably drops to 24Hz. I'm not sure why the lid-closed performance is worse, but this dock doesn't seem to have a problem passing 60Hz through the HDMI port. This uses a 2k display.

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Updates

NOT SUITABLE FOR IMAC: TAIL TOO SHORT.

(Please note the azon listing was not available when I ordered this so the actual item could not be viewed.) The irony is that people usually complain because too many cables or ends connected or devices connected to a computer. The clutter created by all those overlong cords snaking across the table can be really annoying and frustrating, but it's not the solution. At least not for the imac. The end that connects it to the computer is only about 6 inches long, so it dangles ridiculously from…

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Minor issues
