MacBook Pro 16 on Notebook Accessories

An improved feature of the 2019 MacBook Pro 16, very efficient. Answer muy buen en velocidad y estabilidad. Sรณlo echo de menos que no tuviera algรบn usb alimentado adicional.

Pros
  • Ideal for a small home
Cons
  • There are nuances

Quality docking station at a reasonable price

Works perfectly, nothing special or unique. The only downside right now is that when you plug in a USB stick it's unreadable unless the power button is looped through. Small inconveniences.

Pros
  • Price
Cons
  • poorly thought out

Works as expected best in notebook accessories

Does everything it promises to do without being dramatic! what else can you ask? I just ordered a second one for another place I work. It doesn't charge my laptop, only the docking station from an expensive proprietary laptop manufacturer. I can live with two things - a power adapter and this docking station.

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Minor issues

The device to rule them all!

Great device! After thorough research, this device is able to connect all my stuff. I was mainly interested in connecting my 144hz monitor and hard drives to my Razer Thunderbolt 3 laptop. Now all I have to do is connect one cable to my laptop to use my hard drives with my games and my 144hz monitor! Good device!

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • Doubtful

Everything works except for the DP connection.

Very light, portable and looks great. Everything works except for the port display. I have connected various monitors with a display port cable that I am currently using on another computer and it works great and the monitors don't even register the connection. I really like this form factor as well as the 100w PD so I'm going to replace it with the same item and see if it works. I will update as soon as I have a replacement.

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • No power

Does what it's supposed to do

I had a problem and took a star off. The first one I got only worked for about 15 minutes. The power supply has failed. I made a quick refund and got a replacement on Amazon. Two days later I got a new one. I used it all day with my Macbook Pro 16 2020. I connected an external drive, a display, a network cable and a USB microphone. Everything worked as expected. My Macbook charged almost as fast as an Apple charger. I'll keep an eye out for any problems with the new PSU.

Pros
  • Great overall performance
Cons
  • Big and chunky

Do not believe the promise to contact you in 12-24 hours

I tried, it didn't work out. Lots of intermittent issues on two different Thunderbolt 3 systems, Lenovo T14 and Dell XPS13 with all system and firmware updates. And when I asked for support via their website, which specifically states that they prefer email and respond within 12-24 hours (and I used their form on the website), they didn't live up to the ad either. It's been 7 days and no sound so it's back and I'll try another brand. Maybe it's just a coincidence, but I'm not ready for theโ€ฆ

Pros
  • A sea of positive emotions
Cons
  • Quality

Frequent misfires make this pretty much useless (see details)

As humanity changed in early 2020, I drove back and forth between North Carolina and Texas. Since all of my work-related workstations and servers were in NC, I lugged a workstation to TX (and back) in a Corsair 5000D case. While this ensured I had the right machine for the job (and managed my displays), when I got my hands on an 8-core TB4 laptop, I decided to reconsider my strategy. Why not just get a docking station and carry your laptop back and forth? That's how I started using theโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Good but not great
