Customer Ratings & Reviews

The dock is lightweight and compact, adding virtually no weight to my backpack. It worked flawlessly out of the box, even passing through charging capabilities to the laptop via USB-C. The available port options provide everything I need while on the go.

Very helpful when you need USB storage devices (ie. thumb drive) on these Dells slim line laptops. Highly recommended for multi-monitors (DisplayPort, HDMI or RGB). Sometime this goes on Sales.

A decent usb c hub. It is small and fits well in travel bag.

Very convenient and portable dock, with multiple ports to connect all sort of devices, the cable will retract so it is easy to carry around

Great product, exactly what I needed. If you have any issues connecting a second monitor just unplug them and then plug one in at a time

This has worked really well for us so far. No complaints.

This product is very good, it is very useful in my home, I recommend it to my friends and family.

Excellent multi-purpose adapter. All the output I need in a perfect portable size.

Purchased this dock for our business and it works great. No complaints!

Never used it to much but great add on for my dell xps 13 it doesn't let me charge my laptop when in use so that was a bumber

Dell multiple port docking station easy to use and good quality, affordable price

This has enough ports that I needed but note it is for only one monitor. I was able to plug my second monitor directly into my laptop’s hdmi port to use 2 at once. I do wish the cord was a bit longer on the device and that is why I gave 4 stars

On M1 MacBook Pro ethernet adapter is capped at 200 megabit for some reason, forcing the connection to 1000bt full duplex has no effect. Display output seems to work, but will not let you connect a second display even directly via usb-c if a display is connected to this hub. Pass through power seemed to work ok. I'm returning it. I'm sure it's a nice hub for PC as per usual with Dell. But even though Dell's support site claims this will work and has been tested (DA310) against Apple M1, there are some issues. There is a firmware updater but I'm unable to update the firmware since I only have Apple products in my house and their updater only works with Windows 10

The updated version of this puck is great because it can pass USB PD through to your device for charging. The only note is that you can only connect a single display to it. This is clearly stated in the documentation, so all the negative reviews about how it only connects one monitor clearly didn't read the instructions. it's compact and cute.

Works Great, was easy to configure and worked great the first time.

The power option is good love it. No issues with the hub

My laptop is fancy and doesn't have any video outputs other than USB-C. While the laptop came with an adapter to allow for standard USB and one HDMI, I wanted to use the full video capacity of the computer and dual monitors. I was told this would do that. While it has multiple outputs, only one display port works at a time. The portability is nice as the cord quickly and easily retracts into the case but it is really just a fancy hub. I returned this in favor of something that fit my actual wants/needs.

I bought the Dell laptop 2-1 tablet you have to have the Dell pick it has either net plus HDMI plus other plugins you will need. Nice fast easy to hook up. I bought it from Best Buy few days later had it $28.00 cheaper they gave me back the $28.00 difference.

Summary: Overall a very practical device for anyone who could use some simple expansion to their home office setup or travels frequently. There are a few caveats to this unit but overall good for most people. Pros: -Compact -Multiple USB ports -VGA, Display port and HDMI -High speed connections -Ethernet Cons -Only one USB-C port -No Thunderbolt support -Flimsy build -Short USB-C cable Unboxing / setup: This is a very small section as the unit and simple documentation are in the box. Setup is as simple as plugging it into your USB-C port on your laptop. Use: Initial impression was that it is very useful as the size makes it easy to pack and it works with pretty much everything as you will find an HDMI, VGA, Display port, USB-C, Ethernet and two USB-A 3.1 ports on the device. The connector to the PC is clever in that you twist the bottom of the unit and the cable unravels or winds up for storage. The rotation mechanism feels somewhat flimsy but it is unique and useful. Testing out the ports, I was happy to see that the HDMI is version 2.0 so it supports 4k at 60hz. I found one problem when testing out the USB-C input though. I connected my SSD hard drive to the device using a thunderbolt 3 rated USB-C Cable. The connection to hard drive kept dropping in and out. I verified the cable is good with a direct connection to my PC so it appears if you are connecting anything that supports thunderbolt 3, you might have some issues with your connection. Everything else I connected to the USB-C port had no issues. I also would have preferred a second USB-C port since if you are using the open USB-C port as a power connector pass through to your laptop, you no longer have a USB-C port available. This might matter to more than others as there are still USB-A 3.1 ports available. I enjoy this device and it will help immensely during travel but it is probably best for anyone with a lot of older connections and doesn’t own a lot of USB-C devices yet.

The Dell DA310 mobile adapter is an update to the Dell DA300. I did not previously own the DA300, but I compared the new one to the previous one to understand the differences. The DA310 a compact port replicator shaped like a hockey puck. It includes ports for USB-A, USB-C, HDMI, VGA, Display Port(DP), and Ethernet. It improves on the DA300 by adding an additional USB-A port and now features power pass-through. You may not need power pass-through, but if your machine only has a single USB-C port that is used for both peripherals and charging, you won’t be able to use any dongle that doesn’t also allow you to charge your machine when it’s low on power. The DA310 adds that capability, so now you don’t need to choose between charging and having extra ports. The main reason for an adapter like this is to allow you to carry one small package instead of a bunch of dongles and adapters. As laptops become thinner and get rid of ports, an adapter like the DA310 is very handy. At first I thought it was a bit pricey, but then I considered the dongles I’ve purchased over the years: USB-C to USB-A, USB-C to VGA, USB-C to HDMI, USB-C to Ethernet. Each of these can cost from $15 to $30, and I can’t use them at the same time on the same machine. In that light, the DA310 is a good value and allows me to have all of these adapters available without having to remember to carry them all with me separately. I tested the DA310 on a Windows machine, as well as a Google Pixelbook, using 2 different high definition external monitors. External monitors were no problem, but I should mention that the DA310 isn’t meant to allow you to run multiple external monitors. You may only use one of the video ports at a time, so keep that in mind. The DA310 handled every peripheral with ease, and allowed me to charge my Pixelbook while using it. It features an innovative wind-up mechanism to keep the USB-C connector neatly out of the way when not in use. The connector is hard-wired, which means you won’t be able to leave it behind, but it’s shorter than I would have preferred. With my laptop on a stand, I had to rest the DA310 on a box so that it would be within reach of the laptop. This is not a big deal, but I would have appreciated a little more length. I also think it might have been a good thing for the connecting cable to be replaceable. I’m not sure if they could have achieved the winding action that way, but it would be nice to know that if the connector itself went bad, it could be easily replaced. The DA310 could potentially be used as a hub if you typically leave your peripherals in place and would like to be able to plug them all in with a single connection. This would certainly provide a compact way to do that. I decide to try that, so I also plugged in my Logitech Unifying Receiver, which is used by my Bluetooth mouse and keyboard, into one of the USB-A ports on the DA310. This worked like a charm, until I restarted the machine. I doubt this will be a problem for most people, but my Windows laptop for work uses McAfee security, which requires a DOS-based login before handing off to Windows. The USB-C port is not active during the DOS bootup, while USB-A stays active, so my peripherals didn’t work until Windows came up. I’m sure this is a quirk of the computer, and not the DA310, but I just wanted to mention it, in case it matters to you. The last thing to consider is the shape of the DA310. As previously mentioned, and as I’m sure you’ve seen in the pictures, the DA310 is circular. If all of the ports are in use, you’ll have cables sticking out in all directions. If that’s an issue for you, you may want to consider something in a different shape. Competing products are priced similarly, but you’ll want to compare their features to the DA310 first. I found the DA310 to be very well-built, and does a great job doing what it’s supposed to do. If you’re in the market for something like this, I think you’ll be happy with it—I recommend it!
