USB C Docking Station Dual Monitor, Dual HDMI USB C Dock, Laptop Docking Station with 2 HDMI Ports, VGA, 65W Power Adapter,6 USB, Ethernet, SD/TF, Audio/Mic for Windows, and ChromeOS

Writing this review in based on the features and testing. Adding in the support and pre-sales configuration as well. The TL;DR is at the end, so if you just want to know the results, head there.1) Plug N Play (PNP): I have a Dell Windows 11, Intel 11th Gen processor laptop that works with this dock and this was confirmed by the pre-sales support team after I placed the order but before they would ship the device. This attention to detail is nice and I am sure it cuts down on issues for support. The PNP worked exactly as advertised as no drivers were required to install to access any functions. All of the dock items worked perfectly out of the box.2) Dual Monitor Extension Support: I tested this dock in single monitor mode (not using the dock for video, but everything else and laptop closed with a single monitor attached to the dock; I tested in dual monitor mode (laptop display and single external monitor with 1080p/4K and dual external monitors in 1080p); and I tested in triple monitor mode (laptop display and dual 1080p). All of them worked as expected but the description said 4K was only available with 2 HDMIs, but I connected with a single HDMI and got 4K. I didn't have 2 x 4K monitors to try that, sorry. Refresh rate was 60Hz, so business friendly. NOTE: I did not try the VGA as I don't have anything that old laying about. Sorry!3) 7 x USB Ports. While I tested in various configurations, I never did get 7 items at the same time a try, so I can't guaranty that they all work when maxed out, but I suspect they will be fine. I tested the 2 x USB 2.0 ports with my KB and Mouse and they were perfect as expected. I also tested file transfers on the USB 3 and they were fast, but the USB C port was actually faster on the dock, than the USB A port on the laptop. I suspect that is because the USB C is higher than USB 3.0. It doesn't say that anywhere I could find, but my USB drive was almost as fast as my Desktop gaming PC.4) 65W Power supply included: The only issue I had was when I turned on the power to the laptop when connected to the dock. My laptop needs 65w for the BIOS to post and allow the laptop to boot to Windows. The included 65W adapter powers the laptop and the dock and consumes around 10-15W so it would not post. When I contacted support, they were great to work with and had me try a few things to get it working. When we tried everything we could they had me return and get a new dock. The final configuration was a 100W Dell USB power supply I had plugged into the dock so at least 65W got to the laptop. Also, the USB C port on the original dock must have had some issues, but the second dock I got worked perfectly in the final configuration. So if you run into any issues with slow charging, replace with a higher rated power supply and you should be fine!5) 1Gbps Ethernet port: I tested this wired port and it works great! I got about 940Mbps when downloading from the internet, so that's about as fast as you can get in 1Gbps. I can't speak to how stable the connection is as I haven't had this long enough to rate that, but I'll update the review later to update.6) Dock Audio and Flash cards: I tested all of these features as well. The audio like the video is sufficient for business use and the Flash card testing was fast. Also, I don't have any very high speed flash cards to test, but there wasn't any performance difference off the dock than the laptop, hence being fast.The TL:DR for this dock is if you meet the requirements and you want a true one cable solution for your compatible laptop, this dock fits the bill! 5 Stars for the product, support and pre-sales support.For transparency, I have many devices from this manufacture, all of which I paid for myself, and was given the unit by the manufacture to test with no strings attached. This is my honest review.

I bought this USB-C dock model DS-C05 to connect and power a variety of external devices on my 2021 HP Spectre, Intel Gen 11, high-end Windows laptop. It does the job as well as any USB-C dock, and has more ports than most.I also own the other model, DS-C03, which is better for people with even higher bandwidth demands, higher resolution monitors, or a Mac. But you have to plug in two USB-C cables to your laptop to get the full benefits of that other model (10 Gbps).For Windows users, I'd suggest you buy this model, DS-C05, which is designed to work fully with just one USB-C cable connecting to your laptop. It works better in a one-cable hookup. Both HDMI ports, and all the ports work with just one USB-C cable, but you will have the limited throughput of a single USB-C 3.1 Gen 1 connection (5 Gbps).Using just one USB-C plug (included in the box), I currently connect:-Two HDMI 1080p monitors-Gigabit LAN-Keyboard-USB wireless headset-Mouse-USB thumb drive-MicroSD memory card-Power supply-Logitech C920 CameraAll of the above are working well, and are stable. No drivers were needed, just plug and play the single wire. The laptop comes in and out of sleep, and all the devices re-appear, no problems. I am very happy with the USB-C performance of this dock.I've used smaller portable docks, but they don't offer the range of ports, and also tend to get very hot. This one just gets a little warm.This dock DOES come with it's own power supply, so you can use your existing one for travel. The AC adapter brick is compact, listed at 65 Watts, & it will power the dock, and also pass through power to your laptop via the included cables.Last warning: This dock, or any dock, is ONLY as good as your laptop's port. If you have a USB-C port, it is NOT guaranteed that it is able to accept charging power, or give out video signals. Those are higher-end features that some laptop makers put in their ports, but others don't. USB-C ports can also be limited to 5Gbps for 3.1 Gen 1, 10Gbps for 3.1 Gen 2, or 40Gbps for Thunderbolt. This dock delivers USB-C 3.1 Gen 1 speeds of 5Gbps, which must be shared among all the ports on the dock. You can't run every port on this thing, 2 HDMI screens, gig LAN, and expect them all to run full-speed. But for most people's daily use, 5Gbps is plenty.If money grew on trees, I would have preferred to own a Thunderbolt-compatible dock, because that takes advantage of the full bandwidth of the 40Gbps ports on my laptop - however, those docks cost in the $300+ range right now (2022). This dock has a very good price-to-features ratio.

It is a fairly compact docking station with lots of ports. The light grey part is metal, whle the two opposing dark grey sides are plastic. The ports feel firm and solid when I plug cables into them. I tested it with two different Windows laptops (HP ZBook Fury G8 and Dell Dimension 5750 and it mostly works! Here are my results.HP zBook Fury G8- USB ports work- SD card and micro SD card ports work- VGA and HDMI ports work- headset with microphone both work- power charging does not work. It’s possible that this laptop doesn’t support charging through its USB C ports, even though I see the lightning bolt icon next to its USB C ports- I did not test the Ethernet port as I don’t have wired Ethernet.Dell Precision 5750- USB ports work- SD card and micro SD card ports work- VGA and HDMI ports work- headset with microphone both work- power charging - the laptop recognizes that it is plugged into power..- I did not test the Ethernet port as I don’t have wired Ethernet.I've been using this for a few days straight and haven't had any issues. For the HP laptop, I just plug in my power cable, along with this docking station's cable, and it works fine.This is a nice looking, functional, compact docking station that I'm happy with.
