Lenovo - ThinkPad Universal USB-C Dock - Black

You tell me, received my docking station, upon opening it from the packing, I found the seal placed to seal the box by the manufacturer was cut. This is not new and why was it returned? This is not a rating on the product itself, this is a rating on Best Buy and their business practices.

Pros: Reasonably priced, sturdy, plenty of modern connections along with gigabit ethernet. USB-C cord is about two feet which is welcomed over the 1 foot Thunderbolt docks. Not too long to be cumbersome, and not to short to be infective. Cons: Your PC might not find the ethernet drivers automatically. You will have to visit Lenovo site install universal dock LAN drivers. 2nd issue, I don't recommend installing the audio drivers for this. It doesn't pass USB audio through consistently.

I use this dock with my Lenovo ThinkPad and it has made my home office setup so much easier. I can connect my monitor, keyboard, mouse, and other accessories to the dock and then connect everything to my laptop with one USB-C cable. The connection has been reliable, setup was simple, and I love not having to plug and unplug multiple cables every time I take my laptop with me. It keeps my desk much more organized and works exactly as I hoped it would.

This thing is a little spendy, but it's legit. This is definitely a high quality product from both the fit\finish and the functionality perspective. Comes with the USB-C cable and power brick\cord. Functioned immediately after plugging in the keyboard\mouse and two displayport monitors. Remember that this has it's own firmware that Lenovo software can update - so if there are problems with it behaving strangely check the firmware version for updates.

Great overall charging block. Multitude of applications it can be useful for, and had several different charging ports that makes for a great overall experience.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The ThinkPad Universal USB-C Dock has quickly become one of the most valuable pieces of equipment in my workspace. It’s rock-solid, reliable, and performs exactly the way professional gear should. With a single USB-C connection, I’m able to run multiple external monitors, hardwire my network, connect peripherals, and charge my laptop—all without thinking twice.

(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) Simple and effective docking station, works great swapping my Thinkpad X1, Yogi 9i, my partners T14 and even the kids 300E, 500E chromebooks, the chromebooks have limited functionality for the multiple monitors and some of the peripherals but still works.
