Rated 4 out of 5 stars
Works Reasonably well with MS Surface Dock
I purchased this for use with a SurfacePro4 and MS Surface Dock. The Good: It works most of the time. Allows me to drive 2 external 1080 LCD Displays (via HDMI or DisplayPort) with the Surface when Docked. Interoperates pretty well with W10 and the Display Settings, Project to External Monitor, Display Properties, etc. Docking and Undocking works the majority of the time without user Intervention. The Bad: Periodically it will loose the 2nd Display when Re-Docking. Rebooting the machine usually clears this up but its a pain. This does not happen when connecting 1 monitor directly to surface dock and 1 monitor directly to surface itself.

Efficient Product
Works great! Just make sure you have an extra powered usb connection in addition to your display port connection. This adapter will not work without it.

Works amazingly well!
When I first saw this adapter, I did not know this was possible to even do. I use it on my surface pro and mirror to my large screen tv, while at the same time mirroring the signal to my monitor at my desk. With this I am able to use it both as my multimedia pc and my desktop computer. Most important thing to note is that you MUST HAVE display port 1.2 or above for this to work. As well as mirroring you can also extend, so you can have different things on either one of the monitors you have connected. Essentially it gives you two separate monitor connections from the one mini display port! No installation was needed, it was all automatic and could immediately configure in windows display settings. One very important thing to keep in mind is that this adapter needs external USB power to function. So therefore you need to plug it in to either the USB port on your device, or a wall adapter for it to work. Not really a big deal, and it comes with the cord to do so. Overall I am quite happy! Kept me from spending 200 dollars on a docking station.
