Lenovo 40AF0135UK ThinkPad Hybrid USB-C with USB-A Dock - Docking station - USB-C - GigE - 135 Watt - GB - for ThinkPad L480 L580 T480s X1 Yoga X280 - (Laptops > Laptop Docking Stations)

Most of the "docking stations" on offer now require the PC to have a USB-C socket. This "hybrid" can work with either a USB-C or the older USB-A. It has enabled me to continue to use a laptop that I have had for years and still enjoy the laptop's own screen and a second external monitor which I found gathering dust on a shelf. This configuration helps in moving text between applications when cut and paste is not available. I found this approach more reliable than my memory in adding new information from online documents to family trees.

An expensive little unit but it is very well made and proving very reliable, contrary to some of the negative reviews here. We have 35+ units connecting multiple devices from Macbooks to Ultrabooks and have found that aby problens are either down to drivers or the USB-C port of the connecting device. The docking stations will allow you to do the following via ONE USB-C cable Charge your Phone, laptop or tablet Display your device to 2x screens Hook up 2x USB 2, 3x USB 3 (one charging) and 1x USB-C 3 device. This has been the most universal and reliable docking station I have ever used and would highly recommend.

I bought this 8 months ago. It is used 3-5 days per week for between 2 and 8 hours and initially, everything was great I can run my work PC with 2 monitors + the PC screen, keyboard mouse, and web came, and by moving one USB C cable I can use the exact same setup with my home PC Its been great to clear the clutter from my desk and it was easy to install (after some tidying of cables)

Great value and delivered ahead of time. Will definitely use these guys again

Great product and simple to setup. Used on a few different laptops and graphics quality is great. We did also try it on a MacBook Pro but whilst it charged we couldn’t get the hdmi outputs to work. Wasn’t a issue for us as wanted it for office users with Windows laptops.

I bought this for a Lenovo ThinkPad X13 Gen 2 which I’m waiting to be delivered. While I’ve been waiting I’ve tried it with my MacBook. I had to install DisplayLink driver for Mac OS and it wasn’t working I was messing about trying different versions. I’m not good with Macs. I watched YouTube and found I needed to use the usb c connection on the back not the front to link to the computer and then it worked perfectly, Really pleased as I can easily switch if I need to when I get my new Lenovo laptop.

happy with it,

This docking station is very expensive, but this is the one that has 2 HDMI ports. A bit slow when connects to the laptop, takes a few seconds to kick on screens or may not kick on at all. Then i have to disconnect laptop and connect again. 250 quit and this is not a perfect product. I do not mention charging over USB, may work or may not.

Excellent, fonctionne à la perfection et permet de brancher tout le nécessaire à mon setup.

VERY GOOD!

Top. Gerne wieder.

We opened the packages a while after receiving them and they were both broken and unable to use them

Leider ist man bei Lenovo und Amzon nicht gewillt mir zu helfen! Zurück schicken und dann neu bestellen und das Gerät funktioniert dann auch wieder nicht! Toller Service!
