UGREEN8 in 1 USB C 4K Docking Station - Dual Monitor, Triple Display with 2 HDMI, VGA, 2 USB A&C 3.2 Ports, 100W PD - Compatible for MacBook, Dell, HP, Lenovo, Surface

Bought this thing to replace a Dell-branded dock that my company had provided for my work-from-home setup, which cost probably ten times what this thing does. Over the past year or so, I've lost hours of productivity fighting with it's DisplayLink® "technology" -- i.e. flaming hot garbage -- before giving up on it. Buggy kernel drivers, weird crashes, and I never could get more than one external display to reliably work .This UGREEN product, on the other hand, Just Works. I'm running Kubuntu (Ubuntu 22.04lts + KDE Plasma + XOrg), and I plugged and played. Two external monitors connected via HDMI are detected and working independently. I've tried both mirroring the laptop display to the first external monitor and extending the display across all three monitors, and both configurations work as expected. It doesn't even have an issue running through my cheapo 2x2 KVM switch box to share displays/keyboard/mouse with my desktop system. The only thing this model doesn't have is a gigabit Ethernet port, which I didn't need as my laptop has a wired network port built in, but just be aware. It also doesn't come with its own power adapter, but according to the documentation, it'll take up to 100W of input power via USB-c and provide up to 85W of pass-through power for charging the laptop. I haven't tried different chargers with it, but it seems to work fine and provide plenty of power using my laptop's 65W charger.UGREEN seems to make good stuff at a good price point, but considering the abysmal Linux support of much more expensive products, this thing is a steal at around 30 bucks. I rarely leave product reviews, but as much of a gamble as it can be finding hardware with good Linux support, I thought I'd give a shout out. So, there you go. If you have a laptop running Linux, and you want to drive two external displays, buy this thing.

Been trying to find something like this for a while, so when it showed up on my feed I was ready to jump.I have dual monitors connected to my laptop. 1 HDMI and 1 VGA.I had previously bought something like this but it would not extend VGA and HDMI. It would only run one of them.Received this today and set it up. It kept my previous monitor setting intact and now allows me to extend my monitors and only needs my USB-C port.Will update if there are any issues in the future but not having any issue right now.

This docking station has a lot of great features, including dual HDMI ports, DisplayPort, USB-A/C 3.2 ports, and 100W PD charging. The build quality is solid, and it works seamlessly with my friend’s MacBook. However, I was disappointed to find that it wasn’t compatible with my Dell laptop. Despite trying multiple setups, I couldn’t get the dual monitors to work as advertised. It’s a shame because the docking station has so much potential, but the compatibility limitations are a dealbreaker for me. If you’re using a MacBook or another compatible device, this might be a great choice, but Dell users should double-check compatibility before purchasing.

This device is seriously buggy:* Plug-and-play doesn’t work well. You have to reboot the laptop with the devices already plugged in, otherwise the OS won’t recognize them.* Even when USB/HDMI devices are connected, they randomly stop working and disappear completely until you fully power down the hub, unplug it from the computer, and then go through the whole reboot process again (see point one).

Works great

Works great! It allows my laptop to run 2 additional monitors, wireless phone charger, presentation remote control, thumbdrives for saving files to run on my work 3D printer and laser cutter/engraver, and calculator cables. I'm happy with it!

Purchase two one for the office and one for home works well

So, I thought I bought the perfect dock but it stopped working when I went on a trip. Weird but these USB-C and HDMI ports just don’t work anymore.
