[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have purchased and used multiple display adapters from other suppliers in the past. The Thunderbolt 4 dock far outperforms them at a significantly lower purchase cost. Three things I like: 1. Plug and play - nothing to set-up. 2. Each monitor shows up as a separate screen so dragging and dropping to full screen is simple instead of monitors showing up as part of a wider single screen. 3. I purchased the Dock to run a multiple screen simulator, internal plus three external monitors. There is no lag and my Lenovo Slim 5 seems to run with less effort. Overall 10/10
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Waiting for this dock to release for a while and now it's finally here. Everything works as expected, monitors always start up in the same orientation. No issues to speak of. Lenovo has gone with multiple display ports instead of HDMI which is fine but seems opposite of other docks I've looked at.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I can't believe how many things I have plugged in to it and then only one cable to my laptop. Ethernet, 4k 60Hz display, Logitech stream cam, and 100W PD all over one thunderbolt 4 cable. I have read that this gets really hot, but I think warm is a better description, and it depends on what you have plugged in I guess. It isn't small, but if you can tuck it away somewhere it won't be an eye-sore. The power brick is also quite big, but it's 135W so that's expected. The thunderbolt 4 cable it comes with feels high quality. No complaints so far, everything was plug and play on a laptop with a Tiger-Lake CPU.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Works great for my home work station! Very convenient. It easily powers all of my peripherals (secondary screen, external 1TB SSD, portable scanner, mouse).
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased it to connect Ethernet and two external monitors to ThinkPad X1 Gen9. The ThinkPad runs Windows 11. Both my monitors are 1K, but it's good to know that support of 8k and 4k is there. The dock has one HDMI and two DP ports. Since DP ports are not quite as common as HDMI or VGA, be aware that you may need to buy an adapter. I'd love to see a VGA port instead of one of DP ports.
After installation, I found that external monitors keep disconnecting after ThinkPad goes to sleep mode, requiring reboot to recover. Luckily, this was addressed by FW update of the dock, BIOS update of the ThinkPad, and Lenovo drivers update. The update did not resolve all problems. For example, my USB headphones keep disconnecting randomly if used via the dock, but work great when plugged into the ThinkPad port. Still, I find the dock operation acceptable.
