    Excellent TB dock, not the most svelte.

    Works great! Allows me to run a HDMI and a DP monitor in addition to the display on my laptop with no issues. The only thing to be aware of is that this unit is fairly large. It's not an issue on the desktop, but when combined with the power supply, it's a bit bulky if you want to pack it with your laptop for travel. Otherwise, no complaints.

    Need Better Docking Station for Yoga C940

    Purchased the ThinkPad Tunderbolt 3 Docking Station as it was the only docking station recommended by Lenova to go with my Yoga C940. Have had two problems with the station working with my computer and my new LG LED monitor - after a period of about 5 minutes of no activity, the screen will lose the connection signal from the docking station. Only way to retrieve the screen is to unplug the docking station from the computer and plug it back in. Second issue is that the Audio does not always work on the computer when plugged into the docking station. When running Zoom meetings and the like, I need to disconnect my docking station and monitor from the computer in order for the audio to function. I would only recommend this docking station to other Yoga C940 owners if you "need" to have a docking station support your home office needs and you have a Yoga C940 computuer - for I was informed by Lenova that this is the only docking station that can be coupled with the C940 at this time. What else can you do. It is inconvenient at times but also serves a purpose.

    Lenovo Thunderbolt 3 USB-C Dock is perfect

    Perfect docking station for my ThinkPad T14. It's a great size, well-built, and very easy to setup and connect to the USB-C port. I highly recommend it to anyone with a newer Lenovo ThinkPad.

    Works great with a Thinkpad notebook

    Like that it comes with a separate power supply that has more than enough power for my wife's laptop plus any devices that are plugged into it. Other docks use your existing laptop power supply but then you quickly find out that its not enough power for both and Windows starts complaining and slow charging your laptop or you have other devices start cutting out. So far thats not the case with this one. All working well for a change.

  • Does this dock support the Yoga C940 15" w/GTX1650? If so, are there any variations of the model which wouldn't be supported? If not, what dock is my best bet?

    I have this unit and It does seem to be compatible, but it cannot be used to charge a 15" your computer. The charging cord is still required.
