dockteck 7-in-1 USB C Hub with 4K 60Hz HDMI 1Gbps Ethernet 100W Power Delivery SD TF Card Slots

I have a XPS-13 and I got a Dell branded small dock for it, one of those small circular ones if you get my drift. FFWD to about a week ago, I get a firmware update for the XPS and the next morning, the external monitor wouldn't show up. I tried for almost a full day and nothing. I literally deducted that it had to be the dock burning out............. Then I got this dock from Amazon and same problem, it was right then I realized the firmware update killed the external monitor. I tried contacting Dell but you know how that can go............ about 2 days later Dell had another XPS firmware update and after nearly an hour of updates, the external monitor came back. I like this one better than the Dell simply because of the footprint/size, it's very slim/sleek and even has connections for SD cards, pretty cool. Only has HDMI for video, but that pretty much is the standard these days, aside from DP, but you can always get a DP-HDMI or the other way around. Read more

I've been working hybrid for a long time and have always had a decent home office setup. During my two years of work-from-home I brought my employer-issued dock (Thinkpad brand) home, and added a bunch of peripherals for a larger screen, better sound, and a better camera. Now I work from home about 70% of the time. My employer recently issued me a new laptop, and made it clear that I wasn't getting a new dock and that any home office setup was at my own expense. After going into mild shock at the price of the Thinkpad dock, I decided to do without a dock the 30% of time I'm in the office. The problem with no dock is that I spent the first ten minutes of my day (or so it seemed) searching for cables that liked to hide under my desk, then plugging them into my computer. Then if I needed to take my laptop to someone else's office or a meeting - repeat the process. Of course I also quickly ran out of USB-A and USB-C ports and had to add a mini-hub. And then there's those tiny bluetooth adaptors that are just waiting to get lost. So I went in search of an affordable, reliable dock that 1) had an ethernet connection to replace the adaptor my laptop required, 2) supported 4K/60Hz video out for my monitor. This one worked perfectly and found a place on my desk at work. But let's not forget travel. On the road I like to have my laptop, iPad, and frequently a DSLR for my photography hobby. The utility of this little dock was quickly demonstrated on a group trip where we wanted to play video over an external display, and also exchange photos and video via USB drives. The dock performed like a champ and our tour guides took down the information to purchase their own. At a conference where I was presenting the hotel didn't provide an HDMI adaptor for those of us with modern laptops - problem solved by the dock! I eventually had to take an unplanned trip when I had left my dock plugged in at my office 90 minutes from home. Working remote in a hotel room I missed the convenience of the dock so much that my first action after arriving at home was to buy a 2nd one. As for durability - I've used it in my office since May 2022 without any issues (except my laptop doesn't like me if I don't power it down between different dock models). In the office I use the USB-C power input, ethernet input, HDMI output, and two USB-A (keyboard and USB mini-hub for camera and wireless mouse adaptor. I've also taken it on numerous transcontinental and international trips in just a Tumi cable organizer stored in the outside pocket of my backpack with my laptop power supply, and it has survived. Highly recommended for corporate road warriors, and travelers who like photography and video and need to transfer files to a laptop or iPad. Read more

This hub works great and functions as advertised. However, as others have mentioned, this thing get HOT when you're using it for all the functions (power, HDMI, USB, ethernet). I have issues with the ethernet connection dropping when drawing a lot of power through the hub. My Windows machine will show a connection to the network, but no data gets transmitted. If a stable ethernet connection is important for you, I would look elsewhere. Read more

Great tool! Read more

Works with all my plugins. Even the very old ones. Read more

Bought this for my M1 MacBook Air. I initially had a problem with the Ethernet adapter going crazy (network light flashing) and shutting down the laptop network connection. The support department was superb and relentlessly responded to my every question with positive support and ideas. The problem was solved by their suggestion to update my router firmware. The Ethernet port works perfectly now. In fact all of the adapters work perfectly. I use the HDMI and Ethernet adapters connected to my MacBook and TV weekly o stream video. Works great! The network light is too bright but I just cover to with the included sleeve. Read more

I bought this hub to work with my 11 inch iPad Pro and it works without a problem. It also works just as well with my MacBook Air. No problems with any of the connection features and network tests reached speeds just above 1GB so the speed advertised is backed up by the device. The only negative is that the network traffic light is so bright I thought I had a disco starting in my office. A small piece of tape fixed this and it still shines through enough to see traffic flowing. The device is made of aluminum and is extremely rugged. Other hubs I tested or reviewed - including more expensive ones from more known vendors were constructed of plastic. I use my iPad in multiple places and being able to put it in the protective sleeve it comes with and dropping it in my backpack without worry is a definite plus. The vendor is very responsive and helpful and said the bright light is noted (I bet by everyone), and will be reviewed for future product updates. When the wall charger from *a different* vendor caused the hub to fail, they replaced the hub anyway without question and suggested a better one from a vendor called PowerLot (ASIN#B08HMYV5D4 45 watt USB-C charger). Note that the 20w wall charger that comes with the iPad is not sufficient to charge the iPad through the hub. When buying a wall charger, make sure it is above 45 watts and supports the PD function. The hub supports up to 100 watts for power delivery input. Highly recommend this hub and will definitely purchase from them again. Read more
