Nice Connectivity Hub
on September 21, 2019
Posted by: Odins Dad
from PA
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this product because my new HP computer only came with a few I/O ports and I needed to connect multiple monitors as well as a few accessory devices to get my work station up and going. I like the size of the hub at 5"x5" but the issue comes with hiding the power cable and block. Not too much of a big deal but it's kinda in the way and makes the back of my desk messy.
Pros: Lightweight
I would recommend this to a friend!

Very nice USB dock

Highly recommend this dock if you have a permanent workstation. My macbook doesn't work with many docs bc Mac doesn't like to play nice with peripherals. However this one connected just fine and I was able to connect my monitor no problem. It was having issues with my second monitor though so I don't know whats is the deal. Overall it looks great at for 1 monitor works like a champ. Highly recommended and I don't need extra USB port fixtures plus it looks really sleek

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I needed a replacement dock for a Spectre with a usb-c port and not much else. I installed this dock, updated the firmware, and added the peripherals I needed. No problems with anything not working right from the start.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My first transition from a physical docking station to USB-C docking was not pleasant.... until I bought the HP G5 dock. I'm running a new HP Spectre X360 with the laptop + 2 HP monitors. My first USB-C dock (another brand) was cheaper, but would freeze my extra displays (with the correct setup and drivers). HP to the rescue! I purchased the new G5 dock and had it up and running in less than 10 minutes, including configuration.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I needed a dock for my new HP Spectre x360 that would allow me to connect an external keyboard, mouse, and 2 monitors. I tried another brand and, while it worked, required software to be installed and caused some intermittent freezing/stuttering. I decided to give this dock a try and it works perfectly without the need for additional software with no freezing or stuttering. What's also great about it is it works with my work (HP) laptop as well, so I'm able to swap out laptops as the need arises.

This dock delivers. One USB-C Thunderbolt cable to the HP laptop is all that is needed to drive 2 27 inch monitors, wireless mouse & keyboard, webcam, and a USB thumb drive. The cable also maintains a charge on the laptop and all that is needed is a single touch to the power button on the dock to wake the system.

Great dock, sleek design and easy to use!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Being an IT professional I have multiple devices that I need to be able to hook up to dual displays and also have access to multiple accessories. I have used 2 other similar docks and had trouble switching between my MacBook Pro and Dell Windows 10 base laptop. Often various external devices would not connect correctly interrupting my conference calls etc. I am happy to say I have had ZERO issues when docking both of my devices with this HP G5 dock! It quickly powers on and just flat out works every time. This is a huge win for my daily hectic schedules which makes me an absolutely happy and satisfied customer! I will also be swapping out the 2 docks I have in place at my office with just 1 new HP G5 dock. If you are in the market for a USB-C dock I strongly suggest you give this device a try. I can assure you that you will not be disappointed you did!
Pros: Affordable, Lightweight

Great dock with plenty of ports
on September 30, 2019
Posted by: Styrchn
I've gone through a bunch of unpowered USB-C adaptors, but the trouble is that it ends up being yet another device with a tonne more cables attached to it. What I love with this USB-C Dock is that you can get rid of many of those cables, adaptors, and plugs. At 100W it can power your laptop meaning you can leave your laptop charger at home (or at work.)
The cube is slightly bigger than I expected - it's about twice as tall and a little larger than a Macbook Pro charger, and quite a bit heavier so it's not going to be something I carry around, but rather leave plugged in at my workstation so I DON'T my charger around.) That said it's still relatively compact compared to other models. I plugged in my mouse, keyboard and monitor, everything worked seamlessly. I didn't have a second monitor in my home setup but you can actually power up to 3 screens with this unit (there are two DisplayPort connectors and one HDMI port.)
I love that there are four USB 3.0 connectors) two on the side, two on the back. I'm sure as is the case with most of us, in addition to a mouse and keyboard we usually have a bunch of phones and devices to charge as well. I like this enough I plan to get another one so I can leave one at home and one at work! While there are cheaper models out there they usually have less ports and plugs and lower power to the system, so it's worth the investment.
I would recommend this to a friend!
