The best thing I saved was on laptop accessories.

I bought a slightly cheaper laptop for my daughter to use in class and soon found that the USB-C port was only a high speed port and not a port for fancy docking stations that require Thunderbolt capabilities. She had to run two external monitors. Actually a monitor and a projector, and these are mirrored. I was panicking until I found this wonderful product. I connected two monitors to two HDMI ports and then connected the included USB-C cable. You may need to experiment and play with your…

Ideal docking station for Surface Book

I have a Surface Book Gen 1 and it got to the point where I needed a docking station. I tried Surface Dock 2 and had nothing but problems. I stumbled across pluggable docking stations and couldn't be happier. Technical support recommended this dock as compatible with my Surface Book. I also ordered two HDMI cables to connect to my two external monitors. The quick guide consisted of 4 simple steps. One step was to visit their website to download Display Link drivers. After that everything was…

Pros
  • RECOMMENDED USE β€” For use with web apps and productivity software at home or in the office. Not recommended for gaming. Cannot be mixed with USB adapters other than DisplayLink. DisplayPort connections are not supported. Doesn't support HDCP, doesn't play encrypted or copy-protected content
Cons

Excellent technical support, Surface Pro with 3 external monitors

Technical support has been excellent. Immediate email replies while trying to decide if the plug-in dock would do what I wanted and which version of the model to buy. I had some minor issues after purchase which were my fault and on the same day I received an email response from tech support. I only use 1920x1028 resolution on Surface Pro 3 (also works fine on my SP4 and SP6). But Surface Pro and 3 external displays work fine. I mainly maintain an electronic health record (EPIC via Citrix VPN)…

Pros
  • 2 YEAR WARRANTY - We love our connected products and hope you do too. All of our products come with a 2 year parts and labor limited warranty and Seattle email support
Cons
  • cable is shorter than other models

This solved the external monitor issues on my Asus laptop

My external monitor was causing my Asus laptop to crash daily with a blue screen error. Investigation has determined that the error code is due to the monitor not responding before the timeout. Software changes (driver updates, etc.) didn't solve the problem, so I decided to investigate the dock and settled on this plug-in product. It has USB 2.0, USB 3.0 and USB 3 ports, as well as HDMI ports. I connected it to a USB 3.0 port on my laptop and connected an external monitor via the HDMI port on…

Pros
  • . COMPATIBILITY - The dock is compatible with Windows 10, 8.x and 7 and macOS 10.14+ systems. Plug-and-play driver installation via Windows Update; manual driver installation on Mac. Linux is not supported. Dock will not charge host computer
Cons
  • Could have chosen a newer model
