Brydge Stone CORE Powered Charging Docking Station – 10 Ports, 100W PD, Dual Monitor Docking Station, 4K60Hz, 8K HDMI, SD 4.0, USB-A & USB-C, Ethernet – Windows & MacOS Compatible Laptop

Honestly didn't expect much from this dock. I got this for $34.99 from one of the distributors and it works. Charges my laptop, and let's my monitor stay active while laptop lid is closed. I only have one large monitor so not too sad I csnt use two with MacOS.

First one was defective and had to be returned - this is apparently not uncommon, so be sure to test yours right away. Nice assortment of powered and nonpowered connections. Disappointing that only one display (HDMI or DisplayPort) will work at a time and not both of them. Would be nice to have a two-monitor display coming out of this thing. Power supply is rather large and heavy which is not a surprise at the claimed wattage - traveling with it is going to be a bit of a chore so it's probably best left more or less permanently in your office or home.

solid as a rock using with my MacBook Pro and TV + monitor

This unit is the most simplified and sleek version of a computing hub I have bought, and at a great price! It has all the capabilities I need, including multiple USB3.0 ports, USB-C, HDMI, Ethernet and SD. My remote work setup has been needlessly complicated up until now. I can charge my phone, link my monitors, and work around the need for an extra USB dock.

Product attached to a Mac running Sequoia returned a "Accessory not supported error". Zero functionality but was passing power to Macbook Pro. Garbage product

Pros:- Mentioned below as a con, this device does not support PD (PowerDelivery). However, it does power my 2020 MacBook Pro so I can now use that as a travel charger.- Front area has ports for memory stick, USB-A data port, USB-A Data/Charge port, and a USB-C Data/Charge port.Cons:- There are 2 USB-C ports but one is for the host computer, so there is really only 1 remaining for devices and the port can only be used for storage devices and power - it can NOT be used for external display.- For display, there is an HDMI 2.1 Video Port and DisplayPort 1.4 - there is no USB-C port for video.- The power adapter is a big bulky brick - does not support PowerDelivery.- After just using for 1 hour, the device runs warm/hot.- Doesn't affect the functionality but the paint on the device is defective. Probably packed before the painted dried, you can see the excess paint on the interior packaging - I almost deducted a star for this but didn't since it didn't affect the functionality and I keep the device hidden under a shelf.Summary:My goal was to have one USB-C cable going into my MacBook Pro 2020 and have everything else (2 Displays, camera, network, storage and accessories) plugged into the docking station. My goal was almost met but since I don't have a DisplayPort 1.4 cable, I was only able to connect to one of my monitors using the HDMI port. For the other monitor, I'm using the MacBook USB-C port. I'll update this review later once I buy a DisplayPort cable.[01/05/2025 Update]I got a DisplayPort cable and confirm that this device can support the DisplayPort port for an external display. However, when I connect both the DisplayPort and HDMI port at the same time, only one works with the HDMI port taking priority. Deducting another Star based on this limited functionality.

No issues at all. Perfect for needs!

For example: I can displayport 1440p at 165hzI can also dual plug displayport and HDMIBUT: if i have both plugged in to the dock, then the displayport only functions 1080p@60hzThis is on a thunderbolt capable Dell with an i7-1370p
