WAVLINK USB Laptop Docking Station Dual Monitors, DisplayLink Laptop Dock for M1-M5 Mac/MacBook Neo, Windows, ChromeOS(HDMI & HDMI/DVI, 6xUSB Ports, LAN, Audio)

I have only had this docking station for a couple of days but love it so far. I have a M2 macbook air that only has the ability to use 1 external monitor. This docking station allows for a total of 3 external monitors. The first monitor needs to use HDMI. The 2nd and 3rd monitors can use either display port or HDMI. The power cable, the cable from macbook to dock, and the ports for all the monitors are all in the back. The front has a headphone jack, 2 usb ports, and 2 usbc ports. The ports are useful for charging anything that you need. In my case, the keyboard, the mouse, the ti-84 calculator, ipad, and anything else that uses those chargers. One thing that I did not know until now is that you no longer have to charge macbook when using this dock because when the macbook is hooked up to the dock, it actually charges the macbook (bonus). I was originally going to give it 4 stars because every time i shut down the macbook and restarted it, I had to go to applications, display link, and open it up before the 2nd monitor would show up. I was messing around with the settings and there is a setting that allows you to automatically have it open up upon startup. Anyways, it does everything you would expect and that they advertise. I have only had it for 2 days now so I can't comment on long term use, but it's great so far. 3 month update. The docking station is just ok after having it for 3 months. When I turn the macbook on, sometimes it does not recognize that docking station, most of the time it does. When it comes to charging the macbook when it's plugged in, it's weird. It first started and stayed at 100%, but now it shows it's charging but at 93%. It will actually go down to 80%, but then start actually charging again. It's weird. The last thing that I'm not happy about is when you have multiple monitors hooked up, the first additional monitor you have will work perfectly fine and smooth, but the 2nd monitor lags when you move your mouse on it. For example, if you are browsing a web page and scrolling, you can clearly see how it lags. If I knew all of this before I bought my macbook air, I would have just bought the macbook pro and not had the issue with needing a docking station with displaylink technology. This will do the job as I only have about 8 more months left of school and I will finish, but there are probably better products out there.

Love it. Slim design, better cord management, excellent space saver. Works perfect and has plenty of ports for my needs. Best overall for price. Works with Surface pro laptop. Power adapter is a USB A. I have 3 monitors connected and have zero issues with them. My inky concern is the docking station does het pretty warm. Do not place it near anything that would possible melt. Other than that I am very satisfied with this purchase.

I needed a docking station for my upcoming hybrid work schedule. Since I was returning my office equipment to the office, I bought this for home. This is a universal unit. I have a Lenovo now and will be getting a new Dell in a few months. You need to install a driver from the website, which I did with no issue. It was easy to connect everything and get it up and running. The size is small which works great for sitting on your desk since it doesn't take up a lot of room. There was a slide cover on the bottom of the unit. I'm not sure what this is for, it kept falling off so I just put it back in the box. I love that it has extra USB ports. One downfall is that it only has one HDMI port. I would love for this to have two since I (along with many others) use two monitors. It did come with converters. My unit was slightly defective where one screw hole was slightly off at the DVI port. I could screw in one side but not the other. It was a battle, but finally got it to work (came close to needing an exchange). This is a 60hz. My new monitors are 75hz. The quality of my monitors is still great. Overall this is a good unit, with many ports, easy to install and a great size. My only issue was the screw hole at the DVI port.

I can’t say bad things about this docking station. We bought over 20 over for a computer lab! Its been working great, no issues.

I purchased this dock for a two-monitor setup at my job. It worked right out of the box with my Dell 3540 laptop and two 24" monitors without needing to install drivers. Setup was a breeze and there are plenty of USBA and C for dongles, flash drives, etc. It charges the laptop with no problem through the link cable and my phones from the USBC ports on the front. I've been using it for a couple of months now and the only issues I've experienced are, the monitors will blink for about a second every once in a great while, and it sometimes takes about 10 seconds to wake up when the PC goes to sleep. Neither of these bother me. I recommend this to anyone looking for a two-monitor solution.

I could not recommend this unit. Although it will allow you to have 3 monitors, it randomly blanks out. It started to blank out altogether at the same time. Now, it slowly blanks out on one monitor.......then the next.......and then onto the next.........when it eventually comes back up, whatever you were previously working on ends up on only 1 monitor. Contacted support numerous times and they take their time getting back to you. Their emails include a support tool, which collects data and supposedly installs the latest version for display link or something like that. I've done this several times. Once they've figured out there is no resolve, they pass you onto someone else and you have to start over from the beginning, as if you've never contacted them. It's a pain having this unit and even more of a pain dealing with tech support. I'd steer clear of this unit. Also, when looking up files, everything is really delayed. Overall, this dock has great options however, it's not worth the hassle.

If you are cool with updating your own drivers, you have found the PERFECT dock for PC and Mac. Everything this dock says it can do, it does. 4K at 60hz. Up to 4 mirrored or extended screens, if you include the laptop monitor itself. 10gb per USB port. Audio, speakers and mic. And it runs smoothly. I have two computers. A Lenovo Thinkpad (PC) laptop and a MacBook. The PC didn’t require a driver. It was genuinely plug-and-play. But the MacBook did require the driver. I plugged it in and it didn’t work. (Actually, let me specify that. The other aspects of the dock worked, like the audio and USB ports. Just the screens didn’t work.) The problem isn’t the dock. The problem is macOS. Mac is notorious for having compatibility issues. In order to have a dock that works well with both PC and Mac, you have to rely on a third-party driver (DisplayLink) to make it run. That being said, here is why I’m giving the dock 5 stars: Wavlink tells you upfront you will probably need to install a driver. The manual for the dock specifically tells you to install the driver AND tells you where to find it. The website it takes you to is very self-explanatory and the install is easy. It took me less than five minutes to find and install the driver. As a further note, when I upgraded to macOS Sonoma, I did have to download and install a new driver also provided on their website. AGAIN, THIS IS NOT WAVLINK’S FAULT. THIS IS APPLE’S FAULT. THIS DOCK IS BUILT ON DISPLAYLINK, A DRIVER WHICH IS NOT PROPRIETARY TO MACBOOKS. MAC WILL NOT AUTOMATICALLY UPGRADE THIS DRIVER FOR YOU. THIS IS WHAT YOU ARE SIGNING UP FOR. In conclusion, I love this dock. It does everything it says it can do and I’m not bothered by updating my own drivers. ***UPDATE - 18 months later*** Still works exactly the same as the day I bought it. Have not had to update the driver in over a year. Still 5 stars. Going to buy a second one for my office at work.

My prior docking station failed, and I was led to this docking station as the price was between the highest and lowest, and the reliability assessment was high. It was delivered quickly, and I was able to install it pretty easily. I did look up the instructions on YouTube, which made the installation quick and easy. I am delighted with the results of the replacement and use my system daily. I highly recommend this item. My tech basic knowledge is low, and I was able to install this in 45 minutes.

I’m glad to have picked this item over other competing brands. It works without any problems with just plug and play. Already used it for slightly over a month with totally no issues. Another plus feature was that it was sold by Wavlink SG so the power plug supplied was the one needed without the need for adapter. On top of this, delivery was fast.

Aunque es un poco grande tiene un diseño elegante y queda discreto.

使用数ヶ月経つが不具合なし。ノートPC含めて4画面で使用。気になる遅延もない。デカいけど薄いのでじゃまにはなっていない。ノートPCのUSBに変換アダプタ、変換ケーブルでモニター直付けより遥かに良い。

Funziona molto bene , ottimo prodotto , acquisto consigliato

Ich habe die Docking Station hauptsächlich für den Anschluss zweier Monitore gekauft. Mein Laptop hat einen HDMI und einen VGA Ausgang. Die Bildqualität vom VGA ist allerdings unterirdisch, deshalb die Docking Station. Nach ein paar Stunden Treiberproblemen auf Ubuntu habe ich den DisplayLink Treiber doch zum Laufen bekommen. Man muss allerdings beachten, dass man den DisplayLink Treiber für jede neue Kernel-Version neu kompilieren muss. Aus dem Grund habe ich den Startkernel "eingefroren", bis ich mir den Aufwand machen möchte auf einen neueren umzustellen. Ich verwende den HDMI vom Laptop für den ersten Monitor und den HDMI Ausgang der Docking Station für den zweiten Monitor. Die Docking Station wird per USB 3 am Laptop angeschlossen. Ansonsten verwende ich noch 3 weitere USB 2 Anschlüsse der Docking Station für Handy-wireless Charger, Tastatur, Wireless-Maus und USB-Headset. Bis jetzt funktioniert alles problemlos auf der Hardware-Seite. DIe größte Herausforderung war wie gesagt den Treiber auf Ubuntu zum Laufen zu bekommen. Nicht getestet habe ich den DVI Ausgang und die Ethernet-Schnittstelle der Docking Station.
