SABRENT Universal Laptop Docking Station with Stand for Tablets and Notebooks

I've been looking for a dual display dock that works on both mac and windows and came across this. I specifically wanted to extend my display (rather than mirror) which is what this does. I'm using a 2010 MacBook Pro running sierra, and a surface book. There were two things that concerned me prior to ordering. The driver website said there may be issues on macs running sierra. Also, my mac is old and only has USB 2. I took the plunge and ordered it as I knew it would at least work on the surface book and was a much better price than their dock. I downloaded the drivers on both machines prior to arrival which took moments to do. I plugged it all in and it immediately worked with no settings or faffing about needed. Same goes for both machines. I was worried that my 2010 MacBook Pro may be too old for it to work but it is perfect. There is no lag on either machine. I can choose to extend the desktop to two monitors or mirror to two monitors. All in all, brilliant device at half the cost of the Microsoft dock, with the addition of working on mac and windows.

Works great with the surface Pro and Bluetooth keyboard and mouse. This has been excellent to turn my Surface Pro into a desktop replacement. It was recommended to me by my colleague who also uses it with additional monitors. A great piece of kit that provides a lot more functionality than kit from leading competitors. It is chunky and not exactly sexy but comes with all the leads you need. Really easy to set up and it works. This has really assisted my work.

Worked really well for just under 3 months then bricked completely. Every light died apart from the power light on the power adapter. It was great for my Surface Pro 4 and much cheaper than a Surface Dock, plus I could stand the Surface in portrait mode on the dock. Getting a replacement from Amazon so hopefully this one will live a bit longer. If not I'll come back and update this.

Worked straight out the box with little tech knowledge needed, only had a couple of issues where had to download a new drive for the software otherwise all the laptops connected to it recognised and installed everything itself. Even got it to work on my S10+ using an HDMI to USB-C adaptor. We have around 30 of these now in our offices for hot desk solutions and they are wonderful. Not sure where some of the negative comments about resolution issues etc come from as never seen anything like that unless you're mirroring your laptop resolution (say 1366x768) to an HD screen in which case alter your settings in Display Properties or set it so that when the laptop lid is closed it does nothing and goes automatically to the monitors default resolution.

I've seen those work beautifully on a Windows system but when I bought one for my Mac Mini, it was terrible! The browsers wouldn't refresh without moving them. Video didn't work at all. Completely useless. I talked to tech support whom I told I was suing the latest drivers (even the beta version) and they came to the conclusion it was defective and should be returned (which I did). Now I will borrow one (from my friend's Windows machine) to see if that has the same problem on my Mac. If so, I will know it is a problem with the Mac and not a defective device.

I bought this to replace my Fujitsu desktop port replicator and have been very impressed. It feels solid and doesn't move around on the desktop when cables are moved. All the cables connect at the back and the status lights are on the front meaning this keeps the desktop free from cables going all over. It's not a docking station although there is a small groove along the front of this unit that you could stand a tablet or smartphone in (I use it to hold my smartphone)

All this is a hub that lets you connect peripherals from or two your laptop/pc, after loading the latest software i tried the hub, its fast but the software spoils it the sound from the headphone jack is poor and distorted. Unless you need to turn you're laptop into a server hub unit there are cheaper alternatives on amazon.

I bought this as a gift and it was very well received!! Surface pro 6 has very limited ports so this is a God send for the surface pro. I did much research before buying into this one - the obvious choice for the pro 6 is the Microsoft Docking station or the kingston both of which are quite pricey, this device supersedes both mainly on price but also with the capabilities that it provides through its ports!! Thank You Very Much!!

Regarding USB docks, this one is my favorite. Impressive build quality, very nice design with all ports on the back (makes your workspace look neat and clean) and a place to conveniently hold your cellphone. I've experienced no sort of delay in commands (I have both my mouse and keyboard connected there), no loss of quality or any weird stuff in VGA and HDMI ports, and had no compatibility issues with any other peripherals linked there. One thing that it is important to beware of, and that caught me off guard I must admit, is that the charging ports can be used only for charging. I was hoping I could connect some other things there for the sake of comfort, but it is no big deal, 4 USB is still plenty. It still is a 5 star from me.

I recently purchased a portable 15.6" external/second monitor (amazon.com/gp/product/B07RGPCQG1) to use with my laptop. This form factor is great for use both at home and on the road. This monitor is powered by USB C (at least 2.1A) and connects via either USB C or HDMI. Using the cables which come with it is great for on the road, but a mess at home. Enter the Sabrent docking station. If I was going to design a docking station to work with this portable external monitor, I could not have done a better job than Sabrent. First, the Sabrent has a deep groove in the front of the dock. The slim external monitor sits in there perfectly, and a great viewing angle. Second, the dock has two USB A ports whose sole purpose is to deliver 2.4A of power for charging. I connected one of the ports to the USB C power port on the monitor and yahoo! it powered right up. Third, the dock has a HDMI out to connect to the monitor. It also has DVI (with a VGA adaptor) if that's your thing. I purchased 1 foot USB C and HDMI cables to make the connections, which eliminate the rats nest of cables you get using 3 foot cables. What else? Two USB 2 and two USB 3 ports. Why USB 2? Because keyboards and mice sometimes don't play well with USB 3, so you have that flexibility. Also audio in/out and an Ethernet CAT5 jack, if that's your thing. Even better, it's 100% plug-n-play. No drivers required (although up-to-date video drivers are recommended). For me, this means inserting one USB 3.0 A plug into my laptop and I get an external monitor, external audio/microphone, and connection to my external 2TB drive. No rats nest of cables. No cable swapping. It all works seamlessly. OK, what would I change? I'd love an on/off switch on the dock so I could power it off when I'm not using it (because I don't use it every time). Absolutely not a showstopper, though. I can always just unplug it power supply from the back of the dock if I want to. Again, the two features that are a game changer for me are the groove in the front and the two USB A power-only ports at 2.4A each (which can also be used to quick-charge your mobile devices). Plus, it's Sabrent. I've been using their gear for years and never had an issue. You really can't go wrong with this dock, and the price simply can't be beat.

Robusto e comodo, piccolo rispetto ad altre che uso e devo dire ben fatto, dopo una settimana di utilizzo sono contento del mio acquisto... se dura anche nel tempo è perfetto!

Honestly the best product to have! Works wonders and I’ve had no problems with this what so ever! Charging USB Ports, 3.0 USB Ports, 2.0 USB Ports and an HDMI Port as well as a DVI Port! You can hook up 2 more Monitors if you wanted too! Honestly best investment I’ve done this year

Le dock est de bonne facture et tient fermement mon PC portable de 2kg. Il fonctionne en double-écrans sous Ubuntu 20.04 après installation manuelle des drivers DisplayLink. Cependant, lorsqu'il est branché sur un port Thunderbolt 3 de mon Dell XPS 15 (9500), il fait des bruits électriques et l'affichage devient instable avec des connexions/déconnexions fréquentes, et des passages du mode charge au mode débranché. Il a fallu que j'utilise un adaptateur USB-C vers USB-A pour couper la fonction d'alimentation électrique en Thunderbolt par le cable et c'est redevenu stable. Donc bye bye la fonction de charge et ça aurait pu griller mon PC ! La seule raison pour laquelle je le garde c'est qu'il reste bien équipé niveau connectique et c'est le seul dock DisplayLink qui fait support vertical.
