Got this docking station for a friend who uses two Dell laptops and, at the time, had a pretty small desk - so cable management was a priority. This hub has been a lifesaver for dealing with all his dongles and makes it super easy to switch between his work and personal devices without needing two separate setups.It’s not a massive docking station, but with two HDMI ports and two USB ports, it’s one of the most affordable options out there with no fussing over the design. It’s compact and has been working well for him for about six months now without any speed or frying issues.That said, I did try plugging it into my Lenovo, and it struggled to connect. Not sure if that’s due to the age of my laptop or some compatibility issue, but worth keeping in mind.

This USB-C hub is exactly what I needed for my Mac! It’s compact, well-built, and has all the ports I use daily: HDMI, USB-A, SD card, and more. Transfers are fast, and it doesn’t get hot even during heavy use. Makes connecting multiple devices effortless. Highly recommend for anyone needing a reliable, all-in-one hub.

I bought this to connect 2 monitors to my laptop, it works great. Initially I bought a different device that only let me connect 1 monitor, but I returned that and instead got this for 2 monitors. Connects to a USBC port, so as long as you have a few of those this should also work for you. The absolute only thing I'm not thrilled about with this device is the cord is pretty short, so I'm pretty limited as to where my laptop can sit on my desk. It seems like most of this type of device - for some reason - come with a really short cord, so that's nothing unique about this one.Note there are various negative comments about not working in certain situations, however for me it's perfect. I keep my laptop plugged in to power while working, by using my laptop cord that has one end in a USBC port, the other end in an outlet. I only use this hub to connect to a different USBC port in my laptop, with the 2 monitors plugged into the hub's 2 HDMI ports. The monitors themselves are plugged separately into power, too.So depending on your needs, this might work well for you, as well.

If you want a non-interrupted work/game session, look for something else! I only have a couple of 27” monitors, a laptop and mouse/keyboard combo connected to this docking station and it the monitors keep disconnecting every couple of minutes, guess the power supply is not good enough! Until I order a better one, I connected the charger directly to my laptop.Don’t cheap out and go for something more reliable!Update: So Anker reached out and offered either a full refund or give them another chance and try out the replacement, and they immediately sent another one that works just perfectly without disconnection issues like before! Anker stood behind their product and I was not disappointed!This hub is on the cheaper side but definitely works perfectly for my work setup of dual 27” monitors.I would definitely recommend it!

I use my laptop at home and school, and this little dock allows me to connect to my external monitor, keyboard and mouse so much easier. It's small, so it doesn't take up a ton of space on my desk, but the construction feels sturdy. I don't use the power/charging feature because I don't have a MacBook, but that's alright, it's still a worthy investment.

Works, unlike some of their competitor’s. Handled everything as advertised, no drop in quantity with a multiple monitor set up and has plenty of useful ports. My only complaints are that the usb c connector is stationary and short, making setting it up a bit awkward depending how you have things laid out.

Works perfectly with Linux Ubuntu 24.04.2 LTS on my Dell G15 5530 laptop! I specifically note that my prime-select is set to Intel integrated graphics, and this docking station still performs flawlessly.I connected it to my laptop's USB-C 3.2 port, then plugged both HDMI cables into the docking station itself (not the laptop's HDMI port) for my twin Onn 24" external monitors. After a quick reboot, Ubuntu was seamlessly extended across all three screens. All three displays run at 1080p resolution, with the external monitors achieving a smooth 60Hz refresh rate.This means I have three independent displays, allowing me to have different applications or windows open on each screen, greatly improving my productivity.

I used this for about 5 months on a Windows machine and it worked great. I was able to use both HDMI ports and my laptop to have three fully functioning screens, as well as the USB ports for my wireless mouse/keyboard and my webcam.I switched to a Mac about 4 months ago, and the results have been much more inconsistent. I know I can't use both HDMI ports to have three screens as that is not supported on my MacBook Air M3. I have closed the lid on my laptop, used one HDMI port (plus the other two USB ports), and then used an adaptor to connect my third monitor directly to my MacBook.The monitor that's plugged into the hub is constantly turning off or blacking out for a few seconds at a time, interrupting video calls and screen shares and just being a general annoyance. Nothing I've done has helped - I swapped the monitors that were plugged in to see if it was the monitor, I bought new HDMI cables in case what I had was faulty. I even connected my MacBook charger to the hub to see if additional power could fix the problem. No dice.
