One Connection Turns a USB-C Laptop into a Desktop
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The folks at IOGEAR know their stuff. Like Belkin, they seem to understand what it takes to deliver the goods. I have two IOGEAR docks: a GUD3C02 (for 13"ish laptops) and a GUD3C35 (for 15"ish laptops). Both slip under the hinge edge of the computer, plug into PD capable USB-C port near the hinge, and provide video, RJ-45, USB 3, and memory card ports sticking out the back (just like a desk top). Just leave all the cumbersome peripherals behind when your computer must go on the road and plug back into all the goodies with a single plug upon your return. With a sufficiently powerful laptop, you can live without a clunky desktop system unless you need the nearly supercomputer punch of a top end desktop system (e.g., rocket scientists, simulation modelers, video editors, and REALLY hard core video gamers).

Finicky just like most docking stations
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this docking station for my MSI Prestige 15. I connected one of my Dell UltraSharp U2414H monitors (1080p) via the Mini DisplayPort and the other monitor via the HMDI port. I also connected a keyboard and a wireless mouse in the USB ports. All of these devices worked just fine when plugging them in; however, they all had a hard time reconnecting whenever I'd bring the laptop out of sleep mode. Sometimes the monitors wouldn't detect their source; other times the keyboard/mouse wouldn't power on. So I was constantly having to unplug and replug random devices back in, which really defeats the purpose/convenience of a docking station. Ultimately, I decided to bring it back to my local Best Buy. I did some research to see if there was a better Thunderbolt or USB-C alternative, and it seems like most docking stations (even the higher-end models) have similar complaints. Maybe that perfect, reliable product just doesn't exist yet. My only gripe with the design of this product is that it doesn't have a full-size DisplayPort... that would have been nice given the cords I have on hand.

Convenient and helpful
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Got it to be used with a Samsung laptop and a Monitor for my on-line teaching using Zoom. With a external keyboard, the laptop cap be closed and the additional monitor can display what’s on the laptop. Very convenient and helpful. The only drawback is the laptop still need to plug in to its own charging cable.

Excellent USB-C Docking-Station
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got this on sale for $79 which is a great price for such a useful docking-station. Tried with USB External HDD and External HDMI Monitor and SD-Card. The cool thing is, if you have only 1 USB-C port, you can connect the power cable to this docking-station and connect the doc usb-c cable directly to your Laptop (this will charge your Laptop)

Great concept but had to return
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Was hoping to get a docking station so I can use multiple monitors and connect to my laptop via usb-c connector. Unfortunately my computer’s usb-c port is on the opposite side of docking station’s usb-c cable, and the cable isn’t long enough to reach. Thought about using extenders, but all of the reviews says extenders doesn’t work well for docking station, thus I had to return the docking station. So, if your usb-c port is on the left side, definitely worth getting it, but if your laptop’s port is on the right side, then don’t bother with this.

Best dock for the new MacBook Pro
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great little dock for USB-C. Has every input you could need for using USB accessories, hard drives. Small enough to throw in a computer bag but extremely useful. Would love to see a Thunberbolt Display adapter so I could use my Cinema Display. The dock does get pretty hot so I'm not sure I would keep it under my computer all day long.

Works as expected.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was a bit skeptical that this would work as expected with my 2018 MacBook Pro. I needen't have worried. I plugged it in. I connected an ethernet cable: it worked. I connected a monitor using HDMI: it worked. I did the same with BootCamp: it worked. I connected and XBox controller: it worked. I connected an external USB-C hard drive: it worked. It is also the same width as the MBP. You just rest the back of the MBP on top of it and connect the cable, then have all the ports you need. I purchased this because it had Ethernet, displayport and HDMI, along with USB, etc. Many cheaper devices do not include ethernet or HDMI. This was also cheaper than the OWC TB3 port expander and this will work with any PC that has USB type C. The OWC also does not have HDMI.

Good method for expanding ports
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My Lenovo only has 2 conventional USB ports. Given the USB C this allows great expansion. My purchase originally was to allow me to attach a legacy monitor. Now I find it even more useful to attach several external drives. Everything was recognized by the computer. overall a very useful device. As mentioned by others, the cord is short and my USBC is on right side which makes for awkward positioning and I am unable to use it as a rest for laptop.

Q: QuestionWill this work with the new MacBook Pro m1?
Asked by JoeValadex.
- A:Answer Yes, but I cannot recommend it. I have had 3 go bad on me, and one took out one of my hard drives. Cannot recommend this specific product. Also there are issues about the way it handles multiple monitors, so if you goal is to you 2 or 3 external monitors, this dock is not what you want.
