Review on 15-in-1 USB C Hub Docking Station with HDMI, VGA, Wireless Charger, Gigabit Ethernet, 3 USB 3.0, SD/TF Card Reader, USB C to 3.5mm, for MacBook Pro and Type C Devices (Thunderbolt 3) by Larry Morris

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Works well. Many ports. Nearly perfect.

Works great. Would buy again. Might get a second for a tablet. Lots of USB ports. Almost perfect 5 stars but more than 4. Charges my laptop and phone at the same time. You need a more powerful charger so that the laptop (or whatever USB device you have) gets the power it needs and the docking station gets enough power too. The nitpick problem I had is related to port marking. and cord. Wireless charging is on the side of the plastic dock. It has to be like that. Can't beat the physics. To use the charger effectively, this side must be up. never mind However, the port labels are now on the bottom and face down, rendering them unusable. If they were aiming for smoothness there would be a huge logo at the top so the port labels are unfortunate in my opinion. The cable is short. This makes it an excellent portable device. But for a desktop dock, this is a limitation. I have a USB 3.1 PD 10GBPS extender and it works great. I really wish it had a connector and cable, or just a connector so I don't have to do all the monkey business with extension cords for my laptop stand. . But that's just my use case, and for most people, the extra cable is just another thing to break. The connections and the case are quite well matched. It takes a bit of fiddling to fit poorly made USB stuff because the bevel on the edge of the crack isn't enough. But when you have high quality USB devices, the connectors are rock solid. But overall I'm still quite satisfied.

Pros
  • Sturdy finish
Cons
  • Useless features
