Nice cleanup and extension of Thunderbolt 3 ports
on October 2, 2020
Posted by: Sleepywolf

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I needed a way to expand ports on my 2018 MacBook Pro 15" for 2 monitors and USB ports and have a single cable hookup so I don't have to unplug multiple cables every time I remove my laptop. I had the Belkin Thunderbolt 2 (TB2) for an older Mac and wanted this one for the new Mac (this one is much smaller in size than the TB2 version). The Display port was very useful for getting the most out of the two 28" 4K monitors but what I needed more was the USB-A powered ports for a laptop cooler, webcam, and USB Microphone. The addition of the SD Card reader is also helpful - miss that from my old Mac! I wish this had dual monitor ports directly but I purchased a DP to TB3 cable and I'll use the port in the back to get the second monitor to get 4K. Plug and Play - no real setup within configuration of Mac OSX. The power supply is a bit large and heavy - it won't be traveling with me. Otherwise great addition to the desktop and will help me with cord management on my standing desk.

Very Handy
on October 10, 2020

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The dock is well made and looks very sleek on my office desk. I'm able to plug in flash drives, charge my phone and laptop while connecting to my iMac and use a wired headphone if needed. The port makes this very clean as I don't need to get up to plug devices at the back of my desktop monitor and keep the cords mess to a minimum as I have them hidden in a box below the dock. As I work from home now, I have options of getting another monitor to be able to work more efficiently and plug them into the dock to connect them all like I did at my work. There wasn't much directions provided with the box, but it was intuitive and easy to use.

A Great Dock!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have used this dock to hook up to a Windows 10 PC as well as a Macbook Pro. It provides seamless switching between the two devices. I can have access to multiple monitors, speakers, external drives, etc within seconds. This dock also charges my computers while I am using it, so I don't have to have the hassle of taking my laptop charger cord in and out of my bag every day. It may be minor but I definitely appreciate it.
When using the dock to access SD cards and one of my larger external drives, it retrieves the data pretty quickly with not much lag time. I am very satisfied with the download and upload speeds.
If you are looking for something to simplify the connectivity to your laptop, THIS IS IT! One connection and you're done. This dock as been a much-needed and awesome addition to my home office!

Significant upgrade to my MacBook Pro 16"
on October 14, 2020
Posted by: Photographer
from Charlotte, NC
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use the Thunderbolt 3 Dock Pro with my 16" MacBook Pro. Not only do I now have a ton more ports but this dock keeps my MacBook Pro charged up as well. I was worried that the 85 watts of power wouldn't be enough to keep it charged (I previously had another dock with 60-watt charging and it just couldn't keep up) but it works great. Now, my MacBook Pro charger stays in my bag so I always have it when I'm not at home.
Having an SD card reader on the front of the dock solves for most people's biggest gripe about the current MacBook Pro lineup: a lack of an SD card reader.
I'm using Thunderbolt to connect to my external monitor via my dock. It takes a second to wake up but wakes up every time as expected.
A happy surprise about this dock is that it nests perfectly inside my HiRise laptop riser. When I'm not using the front ports, I keep the screen on and everything is neat and clean.
The build quality of this dock is excellent. It looks great, too. Even if I wasn't tucking it in to my HiRise, I'd be totally happy displaying it on my desk.
I have a smaller dongle-style dock that I keep in my backpack. This is really a true desktop dock so I don't think I'd want to be carrying it around with me. The power brick is large (it needs to be to charge at 85 watts).
Overall, this is a great product that significantly expands the capabilities of my MacBook Pro while also freeing up my expensive Apple power brick for mobile work.

Handles multiple plugs, speedy.

from Tennessee
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have the Thunderbolt 3 Dock Station. I have multiple plug-ins and I mainly use windows and this station works well for me. It handles charging while still providing the power that I need. This is compatible with my USB-C device and laptop. There is a display port for connecting monitors or similar. There is a slot for an SD card that will allow you to add more storage. It also has five USB super speed ports that you can connect with. I like that this is light and portable for me to use when I travel. Love the sleek, stylish look.

Very nice piece of hardware

from Fort Worth, TX
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this and immediately hooked it up to my laptop. Connection was easy as there is only one wire that gets connected to the laptop. Plugged in my other wires and turned on my laptop. Everything auto detected and works great.

Versatile and convenient

from Bend Or
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Well built, small, portable, and lightweight. This dock is extremely versatile allowing for use with both Mac and PC systems connecting to external monitors. For its small size, the 12 ports are very impressive, power delivery is 85W. It does run a bit warm, so take that into consideration. It worked very plug and play adding to the convenience factor.
I would recommend this to a friend!
