I've never felt compelled to write a review for a Best Buy product before, but WOW what a hunk of junk. I spent an entire night troubleshooting what might be wrong with my laptop setup, not once considering that the new mini dock I just bought was simply garbage.
I bought this as an upgrade to another dock to be able to use displayport, which at first worked fine, along with the ethernet connection. However as soon as I connected my USB devices (razer gaming mouse, keyboard, speakers), all hell broke loose.
All of my devices would randomly lock up and stop working intermittently with windows making it's chiming new device sound repeatedly. At first I thought it was a synapse issue so I did a reinstall of that, and everything else I could think of before realizing that the mini dock was sporadically showing an exclamation mark in device manager. It was also causing weird battery charge errors even though I had the charger connected directly to the laptop.
At one point my monitor even started spazzing out and showing static, so it dawned on me that "hey, I there's nothing wrong with my PC. I simply bought a trash mini dock." I disconnected everything and reconnected through my old dock and haven't had a single issue.

Does not work for Mac with more than one display

Does not work with Macs with more than one display. It only mirrors all connected displays. This is in the fine print on j5create's webpage: "When using extended mode on Mac, all connected displays will show the same content." Indeed, this was my experience. The most annoying part about this is that this is a pretty big dealbreaker--why not put that on the cover of the package instead of having the buyer struggle through and spend an hour troubleshooting? What is the value of having users buy a product that obviously won't work for their situation (use a Mac...)?

The 4K60 Elite USB-C Triple-Monitor 10Gbps Mini Dock requires Multi-Stream Transport (MST) to achieve triple-monitor configuration. The MST protocol is not currently supported by macOS. The display output is limited to mirrored mode when connected.
