Surface Pro 7 Hub Docking Station with 4K HDMI Adapter+100M Ethernet LAN+ USB C Audio & Data Transfer Port + USB Port* 2+SD Card Reader Converter Combo Adaptor for Surface Pro 7

This thing is great. I've been using it for a couple of months to connect my tablet to a monitor. It has made my course work an absolute dream, so much easier to work on a larger interface but still have the portability if my tablet when I need it on the go. It allows dual screen use. I love its relatively low profile and the cost is WAY more affordable than the Microsoft version.

Doesn’t stay engaged if you use a protector for surface. Kept falling off.

The good: Device works as advertised, turns 2xUSB-C ports into 1 USB-C with power pass-thru, 2 USB3-A, 1 HDMI, 1 2.5mm Audio, 1 SD and 1 TF card slot, and 1 RJ45 LAN connector. Note: the LAN port collapsed down to half height when not in use. The bad: Device is held in place only by the two USB-C connectors and is very easy to dislodge and could easily damage the connectors or ports. The fix: (See pics) I paired my tablet with a UAG Urban Armor case, and carefully cut the rubber on the left side of the case, leaving the corners intact. I took a smooth metal bracket (@2" x 12") i had left over from some project and placed it between the tablet and the case. Now, when I attach cables or this hub to my tablet I slide the bracket out. It prevents the hub or cables from being pressed backwards. Adding a Velcro wire tie around the bracket keeps the assembly from moving forward. I'm sure this can be done cleaner, but this has kept me from blowing out my USB ports so far.

I bought this for our new Surface Pro 11. My son has one that uses a USB C cable to connect, but I liked the idea of powering the unit directly from the Surface and attaching it to the Surface. It is a little heavy, though it is fine while the unit isn't moving, but I'd remove it before walking around with it. The unit attaches directly to the Surface using the two USB C ports, and then powers all the outlets from that. It was 2xUSB A ports and 1xUSB C port. If you need more you'll need to find something else. I've used all the USB ports and it works perfectly. I have my sidekick monitor on one USB port and a logitech keyboard / mouse dongle on another. Even though I bought the flex keyboard, which I do like, sometimes it's just easier to type on a full sized keyboard. What's interesting is that with the anywhere dongle, the logitech keyboard works and so does the flex keyboard. I can literally type with one hand on each keyboard. I tried an SD card and a micro SD card in their slots and they both saw the discs (they were empty). I haven't tried the HDMI port or audio jack as of yet. I like it so much I bought one for my son for father's day for his Surface!

Why did you pick this product vs others?: The concept of this item is great. However, the device didn't work. Specifically, I have a new Surface Pro 2 in 1. This device doesn't fit snug enough, so one doesn't get the connection. It was just too loose, and would fall off the machine.

This is a good docking station. The only problem is is the HDMI to mini display or display port doesn’t work with HDMI two VGA adapters other than that it’s a great device. I wish it came with an ethernet port also so I didn’t have to buy a docking station offered by Microsoft for a higher price.

Compatibility with Microsoft Excel is questionable! I have used this hub with several items but in doing taxes this year I found it has compatibility issues with Excel. When using with the Surface Pro and my external hard drive Excel freezes every time I try to change fonts or cell formats and exhibits other issues well. Plugged the external drive directly into my work computer and Excel functions just fine. So, my deduction....... the hub is the issue.

Works great no issues. Would highly recommend.

funziona molto bene con Surface Pro 7. Indispensabile

Gostei de tudo.

This hub does what it says. I have not tested all of it's features but it gives me many options for connectivity to increase my Surface capability.

No funciona nada bien, no reconoce la fuente de alimentación, ni un cable USB-C - HDMI para proyectar, no enchufa bien, ocupa demasiado espacio, cero decomendable.

I've never liked the cable heavy docking stations, this longer worked perfectly as it provides all the rights ports that most will need to connect other peripherals to your laptop.
