Simple and easy connection. Just plugged in two monitors via HDMI and connected my LAN Ethernet as a bonus. Simple, easy and sleek. Definitely worth the money.

A great way to use 3 screens at the same time with different items on each screen! I set up a home office for my new job last year and was used to using a laptop with two other screens. I've been using this now for some time and love it! It was pretty easy to setup....I'm on a windows based unit for work. Definitely worth the money!

It works fine with Windows machines. Was having some problems getting my Mac to display multiple displays. Ended up giving up on it with the Mac.

The JCD381 is a great portable solution to add up to 2 additional monitors. I am happy to hear that the docking station is working well for you. Being able to just unplug one cable to move your laptop is really convenient. Have a good day, j5create

This works great and is very way to use. I recommend you consider the Passthrough Power, as many newer laptops are now using 65 watt power cords and this dock station only provides 60 watts. I recommend that you consider the JCD543 for just a little more.

Review j5create - USB Type-C Dual HDMI Mini Dockin

Only one HDMI port will produce a 4K resolution, the other is just HDMI. It is technically two HDMI but not two 4K. YOu may need to use your computer HDMI that give a 4K resolution and this hub to get the other 4K. It does have other ports that come in handy. You can download the software from J5 website.

Did not take long for me to see that the connection became loose or the cord that connects to my USB-C port is just too sensitive to movement. A slight movement of my laptop on my desk will cause the connection to fail and my monitor will go black. I use with my Microsoft Surface Pro. I have not used the other ports on the docking station - only the one for HD and the regular one which I just go between depending on which one is not too sensitive to movement.

This works well, but it does not split into 3 separate scenes, which is what I needed it to do (1 on the laptop and 1 on each of the two monitors) it will split into one of the monitors, and then the other monitor mirrors the laptop screen. The clarity of the displays is very good though.

Best work-from-home device connecting dual Dell curved 32' monitors. However, you might want to consider downloading the newest device driver from the manufacturer if you encounter any funny gremlins. This worked perfectly for me with my HP laptops.

I needed a dock to connect two monitors and this fit the bill. However, the external keyboard and mouse USB must be connected to the computer rather than the dock. Also of note is that I bought the first dock in May and had to replace it in February because it quit working.

Works great! I have several external storage drives connected due to the importance of retaining files and documents separately. I use it on a Mac with the M1 chip and Mac limits the number of USB ports incorporated into their computers. I had bought one previously that did not work with the M1 chip. I had to return it and purchase this one.

Hello there, I'm glad the USB ports support your HDD. Unfortunately, the HDMI ports will not be compatible due to the limitations on M1 chip, if you ever needed to use an additional display. If you have any questions regarding that matter, please reach out and our agents will be glad to assist you. Kindly, j5create.

Great deal for what you get out of it. Two HDMI Ports two USB3 and Ethernet. And better yet no power input needed! You get well something well worth what you pay for.
