Plugable USB C Laptop Docking Station, Dual Monitor 4K 60Hz for Apple Mac M1/M2/M3/M4, 2X HDMI or 2X DisplayPort, 100W Charging DisplayLink Dock, 2 Displays for MacBook, Driver Required (UD-6950PDH)

I’ve been using this Plugable dock with my Surface Laptop, and it’s been excellent. It gives me all the space I need for my components, runs smoothly with dual monitors, and is cost-effective compared to other options out there.But what really stood out was the customer service. I was traveling and forgot my charger—there was no way to easily replace it on the road. Plugable didn’t hesitate. They just shipped one out, no questions asked. They wanted to make sure I could keep working and stay productive, and I really appreciated that.Great product, great team behind it.

I work mainly from home and wanted a docking station that I could use to switch between my work laptop and my home laptop easily and that would work well with my monitors while allowing me to hook up a speaker and webcam. One of the challenges is that my work laptop is a Mac and my personal laptop is a Windows machine. I initially thought a Thunderbolt docking station would work well for me, but, while my work laptop can handle Thunderbolt, my personal laptop has an ARM architecture and cannot work with a Thunderbolt device. Enter the Plugable UD-6950PDH. I learned about it because I originally bought a Thunderbolt docking station from Plugable which didn't work for me and their customer support team was able to guide me to a device that would work for me even considering the power requirements that I had. They provided guidance on the software that I'd have to install to make it work with my two machines and made it super easy.Once I had this device, I then had an issue with audio dying. And to make a long story short, the webcam I was using was interfering with proper functioning of the docking station. But, what I loved is that the customer support technician that I worked with actually dug into the log files that I sent him to find out exactly what was causing the issue. Not a lot of customer support teams would go that far.This device merits 5 stars on the basis of the cusomer support I've experienced around it, but it also works great! I can use my two-monitor set-up (almost) seamlessly with my two machines. The docking station runs quietly and smoothly. I love it!

I purchased this product to get my laptop off my desk and connect to 2 displays. I selected this product because it had multiple HDMI ports which was needed for my configuration. Setup was easy enough, but I had issues initially with the dock disconnecting from everything, and the only resolution was to unplug/replug. After a few days, these issues calmed down and I didn't think about the dock at all, which I think is the state you want to get to with a product like this.After changing my desk configuration though, issues abounded, with the dock disconnecting multiple times within a few minutes, interrupting productivity and becoming extremely frustrating. It does eventually seem to get to a workable state, but I'm not convinced yet of stable reliability with this product. Plugable's tech support mainly just suggests to disconnect everything, and reconnect in a certain order, but this doesn't always resolve the issues. If you value your sanity, I'd look elsewhere for a laptop docking solution.

Works well as advertised. It is rather large but at least it works well

Bought this dock for home office use. Has 4 USB A ports and dual display ports/HDMI. I use a dual screen setup and have used up all available 4 USB A ports- dongles for keyboard, mouse, headset and a camera. I feel the 3.5 inch audio and microphone jacks and the microSD slot are a waste of space and would like to see a couple of USB C and another USB A port. The USB C connection to the PC works great and also charges the notebook which means I can leave the laptop closed on the side. A feature that I dearly miss is a power on button. I have to open my notebook and press power button to switch on the computer. May be they will listen and come out with a model that has these features. Otherwise, it is a decent dock with a travel friendly size. Price point could be better but it hasn't given me any technical issues in 1 year of usage so I am OK with that.

I originally purchased a different docking station. When that didn't work, I reached out to support at Plugable. They quickly communicated what I needed, which was this one. It worked great with my MacBook Pro M2 2022. Great product and great tech support.

The whole purpose of Thunderbolt 4 was to be able to have an all in one port where you can connect almost anything to it and just have it work! Apple is supposed to be a company that always prioritizes user experience yet they don't provide their own dock and leave it to third party manufactures to make their own all in one dock. They baffle me on this one. The sad truth is the majority of third party thunderbolt docks suck! They either don't work at all or at best only work half the time! This Plugable dock works great with both my monitors plugged in every time I connect the thunderbolt cable from the dock to my 14 inch 2021 Macbook Pro! The only caveat is to get both my monitors to work I had to use the display port cable on both monitors into the dock and install the software. For some reason HDMI doesn't work with both monitors for me (could be a bad HDMI cable). I give it a 4.5/5 total! The only reason I don't give it a 5 is because on some rare occasions when I plug the thunderbolt cable back in my MBP it doesn't show the login screen automatically and I just have to manually turn my monitors on (they automatically turn off if they are not plugged in) then hit any key on the keyboard then the login screen shows up but otherwise other than those rare glitches both my monitors turn on automatically upon plugging in the cable and hitting any key on the keyboard and pass through charging works great too!
