Another update:In summary of what the issues were.1. Network speeds were well below the 1Gb/s advertised2. USB 3.0 devices connected to the dock were connecting to a USB 2.0 hub/speed according to the Mac3. High pitch whine when connecting to the audio jack on the dock4. Video response time was laggy on monitors connected to video ports 2 & 3After working with Minisopuru support it was determined that the dock that I received was defective. Thank you to Kevin on their support team who spent quite a bit of time troubleshooting with me. Not only did they refund me for the defective dock, they sent me a new dock at no cost. The new dock resolved issues 1, 2 & possibly part of #4The remaining issues I have are not specifically related to the dock itself. Issue #3 is a high pitch whine when connecting audio to the dock. This appears to be an issue with my DisplayPort KVM and its audio cables and how it works with the dock, not the dock itself. This wasn't the case on the previous dock I had. I found a work around using equipment I already had that resolved this to my satisfaction.The second remaining issue has to do with the performance of the DisplayLink chip set and drivers. The screen performance can be laggy on monitors connected to video ports 2 & 3. According to DisplayLink support this is due to how the DisplayLink software and chipset provide support for 3 monitors. For me I moved the monitor connectors around so my primary monitor was connected to video port 1. Since the dock uses USB to transport the video signal from the MacBook to the monitors I suspect the defective dock contributed to this issue but I think this is mainly due to limitations of the DisplayLink technology which may be be improved with driver updates.Again, thank you to Kevin on their support team for working with me to find the cause of and a resolution to these issues.*** old review ***Review update:After spending a few days with this dock it has been removed from my environment. Not only was I experiencing lagging video with the monitors not connected to port one on the dock as I mentioned below I also found that the physical ethernet network connection was limited to 250Mbps, not 1Gbps, and ALL the USB 3.2 ports on the front of the dock are actually USB 2.0 and only provide 480Mbps of bandwidth/speed. I've included screen shots from my Mac System Information screen showing what is in the dock. A USB 3.2 connected device should have, as they claim, 5Gbps speed when connected to the dock. That is not the case when connecting to this dock. The screen shot showing 5Gbps is when I connected the SSD to the MacBook itself.I contacted support about all these issues and they tried to explain the issues away. For the network speeds they said I wasn't using a "Super 6" ethernet cable and that was causing my problems. I tried multiple cables with the dock, all of which provide full 1Gbps bandwidth when connected to other devices no issue. So it's not the network cable.I believe Minisopuru KNOWS that this dock doesn't provide what they claim based on the fact that after the 2nd email to support discussing my issues (before I found the network speed issues and USB port issues) they offered me a full refund for the dock. If the dock performed/provided what it claims I would expect them to offer a replacement since it was defective. The offer of the refund is the ONLY positive thing I can say about Minisopuru.If you don't believe what I'm saying check for yourself. On the Mac go to System Information and select USB and look at the dock USB ports, they will show they are USB 2.0 ports. A USB 3.0/3.1/3.2 device will show as being that version. Network wise, if your internet speed/bandwidth is above 250Mb/s visit a speed test site on the internet and see what speeds you get.**** old review ****I got this dock to connect my new 16" MacBook Pro to my three monitors on my desk, USB-A devices, physical ethernet connection, and speakers. Only the USB-A device connections have not caused me issues. I will start with the least annoying issue:The physical ethernet connection is not connecting using the USB 10/100/1000 LAN as is listed in the question section on Amazon site, instead it shows up and connects with USB Display??? Talk about not making sense.Audio wise when connecting the audio jack on the front of the dock to my DisplayPort KVM there is horrible feedback. This could be with the the KVM itself but I didn't experience this with the previous dock I had so I'm not sure if it is the KVM or the dock. I can work around this.The worst issue is the screen performance, and one I don't think I can work around it. On the monitor connected to port one on the dock the animations, moving windows, etc is a smooth as it is when connected directly to the MacBook. On monitors 2 and 3 it is a different story. Anything that moves too quick on the screen, like dragging windows, minimizing/maximizing animations are choppy/laggy very noticeably. I have the latest DisplayLink drivers installed and tried different screen resolutions with no change. I have emailed both Minisopuru and Displaylink support about this. Hopefully they will have a resolution for it. If not, this might be show stopper for me.

5.0 out of 5 stars Revolutionized my workspace.
Reviewed in the United States on January 2, 2024
This docking station has completely revolutionized my workspace!
I have a laptop at work that I want to connect to 2 monitors, 1 speaker, 1 keyboard, and 1 mouse, all are either wired or require a wireless adapter, and laptops nowadays are just not equipped with enough ports. This docking station offers a seamless and efficient solution for expanding display capabilities and connectivity.
The triple display feature is nothing short of amazing. I can now connect two monitors via HDMI, creating a multi-screen setup that enhances productivity and multitasking. The inclusion of USB-C data, Ethernet, and audio ports further adds to the overall convenience.
Set up was a breeze: plug-and-play functionality worked seamlessly with my laptop (Surface Laptop 4), and I was up and running in minutes. The build quality is robust, and the sleek design complements my workspace aesthetics.

Not only was I experiencing lagging video with the monitors not connected to port one on the dock as I mentioned below I also found that the physical ethernet network connection was limited to 250Mbps, not 1Gbps, and ALL the USB 3.2 ports on the front of the dock are actually USB 2.0 and only provide 480Mbps of bandwidth/speed. I've included screen shots from my Mac System Information screen showing what is in the dock. A USB 3.2 connected device should have, as they claim, 5Gbps speed when connected to the dock. That is not the case when connecting to this dock. The screen shot showing 5Gbps is when I connected the SSD to the MacBook itself.

I contacted support about all these issues and they tried to explain the issues away. For the network speeds they said I wasn't using a "Super 6" ethernet cable and that was causing my problems. I tried multiple cables with the dock, all of which provide full 1Gbps bandwidth when connected to other devices no issue. So it's not the network cable.

I believe Minisopuru KNOWS that this dock doesn't provide what they claim based on the fact that after the 2nd email to support discussing my issues (before I found the network speed issues and USB port issues) they offered me a full refund for the dock. If the dock performed/provided what it claims I would expect them to offer a replacement since it was defective. The offer of the refund is the ONLY positive thing I can say about Minisopuru.

If you don't believe what I'm saying check for yourself. On the Mac go to System Information and select USB and look at the dock USB ports, they will show they are USB 2.0 ports. A USB 3.0/3.1/3.2 device will show as being that version. Network wise, if your internet speed/bandwidth is above 250Mb/s visit a speed test site on the internet and see what speeds you get.

**** old review ****

I got this dock to connect my new 16" MacBook Pro to my three monitors on my desk, USB-A devices, physical ethernet connection, and speakers. Only the USB-A device connections have not caused me issues. I will start with the least annoying issue:

The physical ethernet connection is not connecting using the USB 10/100/1000 LAN as is listed in the question section on Amazon site, instead it shows up and connects with USB Display??? Talk about not making sense.

Audio wise when connecting the audio jack on the front of the dock to my DisplayPort KVM there is horrible feedback. This could be with the the KVM itself but I didn't experience this with the previous dock I had so I'm not sure if it is the KVM or the dock. I can work around this.

The worst issue is the screen performance, and one I don't think I can work around it. On the monitor connected to port one on the dock the animations, moving windows, etc is a smooth as it is when connected directly to the MacBook. On monitors 2 and 3 it is a different story. Anything that moves too quick on the screen, like dragging windows, minimizing/maximizing animations are choppy/laggy very noticeably. I have the latest DisplayLink drivers installed and tried different screen resolutions with no change. I have emailed both Minisopuru and Displaylink support about this. Hopefully they will have a resolution for it. If not, this might be show stopper for me.

5.0 out of 5 stars A very useful dock
Reviewed in the United States on March 9, 2024
This dock is powered by display link. Which is different other USB dock. I have two monitor, and I need use it in my desktop and laptop. But my desktop is very old didn't have usb-c. So every time I use my laptop, I need to change cable from my desktop to laptop. It's very inconvenience. But display link dock is different you can connect it with USB-A. It's very convenient. Now I connect all my devices with dock. And if I want to use laptop I just need to change one cable,it's very convenient.

4.0 out of 5 stars Fairly decent triple-display dock (HDMI/DP/HDMI|DP), 4K@60Hz, plenty of USB ports, PD3/85W
Reviewed in Canada on May 31, 2023
This is a fairly decent multifunctional USB-C dock that provides power (via AC/DC adapter using barrel connector), triple-display (via HDMI, PD, and either HDMI/DP as the 3rd display), GigE, plenty of USB ports (USB-C and USB-A) and so on. It's advertised as being capable of 100W but in reality it can only provide roughly 85W during tests; however, it should be more than sufficient for most people.

Unlike the vast majority of docks out there, this is one of the few USB-C docks that supports triple monitors (albeit with limitations, read on) via HDMI, DP, and either HDMI or DP as the 3rd display, along with a full set of other ports (GigE, 1x USB-C/5 Gbps, 2x USB-A 3.0/5 Gbps, 2x USB-A 2.0, and 3.5mm etc). Unfortunately, it doesn't have any USB 3.2 Gen 2/2x1 (10 Gbps) ports which is a bit of a disappointment.

It has 2x USB-A 3.0 ports (@ 5 Gbps) with 2x USB 2.0 (@ 480 Mbps) ports which is good and the 2 USB-A 2.0 ports are capable of providing 7.5W (5V/1.5A) for somewhat low-powered devices should you have the need for it. For reference, ordinary USB-A 2.0 ports are only capable of 2.5W (5A/0.5A) while ordinary (i.e. non-charging capable) USB 3.0 ports are only capable of 4.5W (5V/0.9A). 1.5A should be sufficient to charge all modern cell phones at an acceptable rate (as last resort) when no QC is available.

The lack of USB 3.1 10 Gbps ports means it can't fully take advantage of the faster external M2 docks (NVMe/SATA) and/or other high speed devices that's faster than 400-500 MB/s (limited by USB 3.0). Though, it does have all the other typical ports such as GigE and 3.5mm that many other docks (more than 7 ports or so) do include as well.

≡ Triple monitor
Not surprisingly, the most important feature of this dock is its ability to support 3 monitors from a total of 4 ports (HDMI, DP, and HDMI/DP); however, this is NOT without limitations (requires DP 1.4 for 60Hz, 30Hz with DP 1.2) just like all other docks out there. What's unique about this particular dock is that it supports the use of displays without USB DP Alt mode which is excellent for older computers and/or laptops. The max resolution and refresh rate is 4K@60Hz across all 3 monitors. I don't have 4K@60Hz monitors to test but it does work without issues with 2x monitors running at 4K@60Hz.

I should also emphasis again that the beauty of this particular dock is that you can use ordinary USB 2.0/3.0 ports to add more monitors without relying on the HDMI/DP ports on your computer nor will you need a full-featured USB-C port to use this dock. However, you WILL need an USB-C port that supports DP Alt mode in order to use 3 monitors and specifically to use the FIRST HDMI port.

≡ DisplayLink
So how does this work? Well, the very short version is that the first HDMI port is your ordinary HDMI port that requires USB-C port (from your laptop) supporting video out (i.e. DP Alt mode) and the remaining 2 ports (DP + HDMI/DP) are driven by DisplayLink technology which isn't new but it essentially provides a way to add more monitors by utilizing existing USB 2.0/3.0 connections, CPU, and additional drivers (which are REQUIRED to use the 2nd and the 3rd monitors).

What this means is that if your laptop is connected to this dock via USB-C port capable of DP Alt mode, you can make use of all 3 ports; otherwise, the FIRST HDMI port on the dock won't be available but you can still use 2 monitors with 4K@60Hz via the remaining 2 ports (DP and HDMI/DP) on the dock. Note that you don't need an USB-C port on your laptop or computer to use this; an ordinary USB-A port would work just fine although USB 3.0 is preferable for obvious reasons (i.e. higher bandwidth).

✔ This essentially allows you to extend or add more monitors to any OS that supports (i.e. drivers available) and these include Windows, Mac OS, Ubuntu, Android, and Chrome OS. Note that I haven't tested 'em all but they should all work as long as you can get the drivers installed and operate properly. The drivers for DisplayLink can be downloaded directly from Synaptics website.

Note that high speed and quality cables (HDMI and DP) are also needed so check your system spec and other hardware first to make sure they can fully take advantage of what this dock offers.

Lastly, this dock must be powered via DC barrel connector or else it won't work and if you intend to charge your laptop while it's being used, you need to connect this to an appropriate USB-C wall charger capable of charging your laptop. The provided DC power source can NOT be used to charge your laptop and it's ONLY used to power the dock and to provide power to its peripherals (USB etc).

≡ Specs & features
* 1x Power 100W (via AC/DC adapter using barrel connector, included)
* 1x ?W PD (Output); max 85W during tests
* 1x HDMI, 1x DP, 1x HDMI OR DP (4K@60Hz)
* 1x GigE
* 1x USB-C @ 5 Gbps
* 2x USB-A 3.0 @ 5 Gbps (5V/0.9A)
* 2x USB-A 2.0 @ 480 Mbps (7.5W, 5V/1.5A)
* 1x 3.5mm port

≡ What I like
✔ Triple-display support with 4K@60Hz which few others support at the moment (though more have come aboard recently)
✔ Capable of utilizing USB interfaces to extend display without HDMI/DP Alt mode ( the BEST feature)
✔ Supports triple- or dual-monitor (4K@60Hz)
✔ Plenty of USB ports (1x USB-C/5 Gbps, 2x USB-A/5 Gbps and 2x USB-C/480 Mbps)
✔ Nice and clean physical build and appears to be well made
✔ Relatively compact and portable - though it is noticeably larger than most other 4K capable USB-C docks
✔ Semi-Plug'n'Play - I was able to use it right away without issues (drivers are required however)

≡ What I don't like
✘ NOT as cost efficient as some others
✘ Doesn't have USB 3.1 ports (USB-C or USB-A) rated at 10 Gbps to support high speed external drive dock (i.e. M2 NVMe)
✘ Incapable of providing more than 90W power via PD3 which some other docks do support
✘ Runs a bit warmer than expected when in high load/charging (most of 'em do as well)

≡ Value
All things considered, this is a fairly decent USB-C docking station that's well built (in comparison to most other docks out there) and it's capable of triple monitor (or at least dual-monitor without DP Alt mode) with plenty of USB ports (1x USB-C and 2x USB-A @ 5 Gbps) along with a GigE port and 3.5mm port.

It's somewhat reasonably priced at $227 for what it provides and its overall build quality and performance. However, it is more expensive than ordinary USB-C docks without DisplayLink technology which is a fair trade-off for systems without DP Alt mode in my mind and it's one of the few that's capable of utilizing USB 2.0/3.0 ports (i.e. not requiring DP Alt mode and to a certain degree MST mode of DP 1.2/1.4) while supporting 2x 4K@60Hz simultaneously so this might be suitable for those with unique setup and/or requirements.
