Customers are saying

Customers are pleased with the USB 3.0 Mini Dock's ease of use, USB connectivity, overall performance, and compact size. Compatibility and the variety of ports are also appreciated, especially considering the affordable price and monitor support. However, some customers have noted that the device tends to heat up during use. Despite this, the mini dock's connectivity is generally seen as a positive attribute.

This summary was generated by AI based on customer reviews.

The vast majority of our reviews come from verified purchases. Reviews from customers may include My Best Buy members, employees, and Tech Insider Network members (as tagged). Select reviewers may receive discounted products, promotional considerations or entries into drawings for honest, helpful reviews.

    Does what I need it to do. At $80 I feel it’s a little pricey. I use it for dual monitors.

    Not enough Ports for the Price

    First complaint is that for the price there are only the ports pictured there are none on the other side. There is only ONE HDMI port. The other issue I have with this docking station is that you couldn't just use it you actually had to download a driver in order to use the ports, which I've never had to do for other port extenders.

      Pjdavis, I regret to hear about there not being enough USB ports for your needs. We offer other models such as the JUD481 which allows connection for HDMI, VGA, Ethernet and 4 USB ports for accessories. If you would like more information, please reach out to support and an agent will gladly answer any questions or concerns you may have.

      RW816, We apologize for any misinformation in regards to the JUD380 requiring a power source for proper functionality. The mini dock obtains it's power from the computer as it is bus-powered and does not require any additional power. If you have any doubts, questions, or concerns please reach out to support and an agent will gladly lend a helping hand to get you setup.

      When it comes to securing a VGA connection, we apologize for the inconvenience this has caused. Alternately, we have the JUA210 which has screw ports and this way the connector does not slip out. If interested in learning more about it, please reach out to support and we'll gladly answer any questions or concerns you may have.

      Due to the less than 2% defective rate, it is possible the JUD380 you obtained may have been factory defective. In such scenarios, we recommend contacting the support team mentioned on the casing to speak with an agent and they will be more than happy to exchange it for you. We apologize for the inconvenience this caused and look forward to working with you.

      Experiencing sudden shutdowns and restarts on your laptop after connecting a USB 3.0 Mini Dock. Such issues might indicate a compatibility problem, power supply issues, or other technical glitches. Here are some steps to help you address this problem: The micro USB power-in port is optional, but it is recommended when using with high-powered USB devices or with multiple peripherals at once. If it's not receiving adequate power, it could lead to stability problems. Ensure that the dock has the necessary power supply connected and that it's functioning properly. Try connecting the dock to a different USB port on your laptop. Some USB ports might provide more power than others, and using a different port could resolve power-related issues. If you have access to another laptop, try connecting the USB 3.0 Mini Dock to that laptop to see if the problem occurs on a different device. Check for driver conflicts, driver conflicts can cause stability issues. Ensure that there are no conflicting drivers on your laptop that might be triggered when the dock is connected. If you're using a Windows laptop, check the Windows Event Viewer for error messages or critical events that might provide more information about the sudden shutdowns and restarts. j5create
