Firstly i would like to say that being able to connect 1 cable instead of 6-7 every time you take your laptop from work to home is awesome! most of the problems that i had with it were to do with the video output

However for my laptop there is a latency effect on whatever screens are plugged into the docking station... perhaps might not enough to be noticable by everyone (you just overshoot things your trying to click on a lot more) but for me it's like night and day, it is especially noticeable when you move a window from your laptop screen to a screen plugged into the docking station, the window sort of squeezes up as it moves from the l...view more Firstly i would like to say that being able to connect 1 cable instead of 6-7 every time you take your laptop from work to home is awesome! most of the problems that i had with it were to do with the video output

However for my laptop there is a latency effect on whatever screens are plugged into the docking station... perhaps might not enough to be noticable by everyone (you just overshoot things your trying to click on a lot more) but for me it's like night and day, it is especially noticeable when you move a window from your laptop screen to a screen plugged into the docking station, the window sort of squeezes up as it moves from the laptop screen (in real time) to the docking station screen ( slower). probably livable for people who only do simple word processing typed work but for 3d modeling, drafting or games it is painful.

Secoundly its supposed to charge the laptop via the usb cable but this dosen't work on all laptops.

thirdly because of the onboard graphics if you use a docked screen as your main screen certain programs (that run fine when the docking station is not plugged in) will fail to run. i've noticed this on Sketchup 2020 & layout 2020 (CAD programs). you can work around this by having the main screen as your laptop screen.

We have been using this docking station daily for over 3 weeks and, apart from initially downloading the "Display Link" driver from the dell web site to support the extra two video displays, this docking station just plugged in and worked.

Have used it on both on my wife's Lenovo laptop (for work) and my son's Asus laptop for uni so definitely doesn't need to be a Dell laptop. When my wife was moving between work (one extra screen) and home (two extra screens) the drivers/OS seemed to remember the configuration and just came up how she had left it previously.

We also played with plugging an extra screen into the HDMI out on my son's laptop and that also worked so he had the main laptop screen + three others working! :-)

We have generally used it with a wireless keyboard/mouse , a flatbed scanner, headset for Zoom meetings, gigabit Ethernet and two HDMI screens attached with no issues and still ports free for other devices. Very happy with it so far!

No negatives. Great service at PB Tech Tauranga. Had this for 2 weeks now. Works well. No negatives. Great service at PB Tech Tauranga. Had this for 2 weeks now. Works well.

I use this docking station at work, and when my generic dock at home died during lockdown, I replaced it with this one. Happy as, back to 3 screens! I use this docking station at work, and when my generic dock at home died during lockdown, I replaced it with this one. Happy as, back to 3 screens!

Docking station works well - only disappointment was that it didn't have adaptor to USB C for my Dell Laptop so am using a Dongle. would be great to know whether these are available as I get confused getting right adaptor instore.
