Plugable 13-in-1 USB C Docking Station 4K Triple Monitor with 100W Power Delivery USB C Dock for Windows

This one works! Finally hundreds of dollars wasted on Docking stations only to get error messages flickering displays, displays not working. Thanks Plugable ! - wish I had found you sooner. Although just installed but at least i didn't get any error messages and my Bluetooth is not constantly connecting and disconnecting. All 3 screens working as desired. Windows 11 ASUS ROG gaming Laptop. This working docking station search has been a PITA for a long time. This was NOT the most expensive dock I have tried. I'd say the value for this Dock is excellent although it is costly. Irrelevant because of the frustrations of the other docks even the more expensive dock ("name TOBEnot mentioned)" when you get error messages or halfway work long enough for you to tinker and update drivers and use tech support only to see your return window pass by--haha Read more

I bought this docking stations two years ago to use with my MacBook Pro 13" M2. It has worked great, giving me three stand alone monitors. When I had an issue, Plugable was very responsive and helped me solve my issue. I highly recommend Plugable if you want multiple free-standing monitors with your laptop/computer. Read more

I was hesitant to purchase this dock because of the price - but after searching for quite a while this seemed to be one of the few docks that would allow a M2/M1 MacBook to use 3 external monitors with DisplayLink. I finally bit the bullet and bought it - and installed the DisplayLink Manager program before it even arrived. I thought there would be some issues getting started - but I was surprised to find that it worked right out of the box. The hardest part was plugging in all the HDMI cables! I saw some reviews complaining about how hot the dock gets. I tested by streaming two 2k HD movies at the same time for 30 minutes and neither the dock or the MacBook Air has gotten very hot at all. I also used the dock with HDMI & USB switches, USB hubs, ethernet (it pulled 1gig while running all 3 monitors, btw), mouse, keyboard and webcam. Everything just worked - except a 5v power-only laptop cooler. The laptop cooler didn't want to turn on after plugging it into the dock's USB ports... but it turns out the dock just needs to be plugged into the laptop to activate the power to it's USB ports. Honestly, that's pretty smart since it conserves energy and heat. It also means I don't have to fiddle with the cooler's switch every time I need to turn it on too. Overall - I was expecting a struggle to get it all working, and there was none. It's worked with every single thing I've thrown at it right away - I highly recommend this dock! If you're reading this in the future - please note I *will* make an update if the Dock ever dies on me. If there's no update - it lives! Thank you Plugable - 10/10! Read more

Solid product and I want to give it 4 stars as the design needs improvement, however I believe this hub is better than the competition so leaving as 5 stars.. Plugable take notes. I use it for work which prohibits 3rd party software installations (which you need as thunderbolt 4 (usb-c) based hubs generally rely on displaylink drivers), but once I got passed that hurdle it was all plug and play. I have it using 2x 2k monitors, one at 120h, one at 100hz (I am using hdmi and will eventually switch to DP but until then I'm willing to accept throttled frame rates), and a 3rd regular 1080p over hdmi. In addition I have power, ethernet, and three usb peripherals. With that being said, the device runs flawlessly, with one caveat... It gets pretty toasty. PLUGABLE PLEASE READ THIS: it would take very little to implement an exhaust fan or another thermal solution in your higher end/flagship workstations. I did it myself, but I know this now voids any warranty I hoped to have. Please consider adding a fan to the top of your products or something similar. If I was running the stated/rated three 4k monitors at 60hz this thing would likely get way too hot and compromise its longevity. Take a look at the pictures.... EZ! I traced and cut a hole for a 25mm usb fan by cooler guys (also purchased on Amazon, amazing..) and now have an exhaust fan atop the hub, and it works FLAWLESSLY with near zero noise. Could not be happier now. The heat from the hub had me nervous but now, no more heat :) Consider any modifications at your own risk as this will certainly void your warranty, but I'll say mine works better than ever :) Read more
