Belkin USB-C / Thunderbolt 3 Dock Pro for Mac & PC with Dual 4K Work with Mac/ Windows Thunderbolt & USB-C Laptop - up to 40 Gbps transfer rates, 85W of Power to Your Laptop

This will run two external monitors fine, how ever you are ham strung by the fact in order to do this you have to plug both monitors into the dock with individual cables. I thought I could get around this by buying two monitors that supported Daisy Chaining of the Display Port protocol, how ever doing this on this dock just runs the screens in a mirror configuration. Both Mac and Windows only sees the monitors as a single display, but if you plug one monitor in by Display Port and one using a USB-C to Display Port cable they work separately.

Lots of ports and features that work well, and a bundled power brick make this dock a great buy.

The drawbacks are, monitors go black for a few seconds OFTEN enough to annoy me, which I think could be related to overheating, because this thing gets HOT... I setup a DIY cooling solution and will have to see of it solves the black screen issue.

Also works with Samsung Dex! Lots of ports and features that work well, and a bundled power brick make this dock a great buy.

Pros:
Good design
Adequate ports

Cons:
SHOWSTOPPER: When the laptop goes into sleep mode or restarts, this dock does not recognise the laptop or the monitors. You need to unplug and plugin sometimes power plug or monitor cable or laptop USB C cable. Sometimes, it just fails to recognise monitor until you restart the whole thing. Surprisingly, many times connected keyboard and mouse works fine but not the monitors.

I tried to look at multiple FAQ and sites, and it looks like many others are in the same boat. I tried 3 different brands of laptops and monitors.

There is no HDMI port, which could have been nice to have.

I have stopped using it now and happy with the $100 dongle which can give the same functionality without interruptions.

Using MacBook Pro 15" Late 2018 and i cant recommend this product. Main issue is coming out of sleep it brings up my monitor and then my monitor goes to sleep. Have to pull Thunderbolt cable and plug into new port. The device heats up like crazy and when it comes into summer its even worse. Using MacBook Pro 15" Late 2018 and i cant recommend this product.

Great product used to connect my laptop and external mouse and keyboard directly to port which connected to my monitor. Easy to use and looks very clean Great product used to connect my laptop and external mouse and keyboard directly to port which connected to my monitor. Easy to use and looks very clean

This dock works reasonably well. It connects each time I plug it into my personal and work laptops, unlike my last dock. I have two monitors, a mouse, and keyboard hooked up and they all work fine. Where it does have issues is if you plug in anything that is a bit more power hungry, such as my phone to charge, it sometimes causes the other USB devices to stop working after a while.

Works well.
I get the black screen issue on the connected monitor for a few seconds periodically as mentioned by other user when using my Microsoft Surface but not with the Dell. No issues with sleep mode. Works well.

Belkin is lying about support on M1 Macs - I'm staring at poor local network Gigabit ethernet speeds which took me hours to figure out that there's actually not support for Apple Drivers on M1 Macbooks. Have to constantly disconnect / reconnect Dock when things stop working.

The Thunderbolt 3 Dock pro uses the M1 unsupported "Realtek USB 10/100/1000 LAN 8153 Chip", it works using Apple's suboptimal driver, but expect complete disconnect after waking from sleep, and 0.5 Gigabit speeds - not good for video editing.

Boy, is it hard to find a good quality dock these days, eh?

First and foremost, don't let the Reddit posts suggesting this is a Mac-first device put you off. In my testing, it works just as well with Windows devices as it does Macs - Chromebooks too, actually. There is the occasional issue negotiating the protocols between host and client, which can result in on-screen artefacting, but this is nothing I haven't seen before on even the much more expensive docks, and can be rectified by simply unplugging and replugging the included USB-C/Thunderbolt cable.

All-in-all, this is a great dual-mode Thunderbolt(3)/USB-C dock, and for those who have one, works great with an ASUS ROG Ally.

Something to note, is that the rear USB ports seem to be configured in a way that the (when viewed from the front) left-most ports are given priority. Depending on your setup, this could mean that the right-most ports fall outside the maximum number of hubs (5) suppported by the USB spec. You think this won't affect you - I had just three physical hubs before I triggered the 'five-hub' limitation - but it still might, so just be aware if you're having issues, move your priority devices (or hubs) to the left-most USB ports and you should be fine.

Work well with both monitor outputs. A simple docking station with reliable performance. Happy with this purchase. Work well with both monitor outputs. A simple docking station with reliable performance. Happy with this purchase.
