This is not the docking station for you.
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have been using this docking station for over a year on a macbook pro with dual 32inch 4k displays. The last few driver updates for Big Sur and Monterrey introduced a new driver that does not allow for "screen rotation" on macos. I stack my monitors vertically. The other issue i have with this docking station is that after a few days, the macbookpro will just lockup and won't do anything until i have to hard reset by holding the touchid button. I then have to reconfigure my display settings, where applications need to go etc. It is very time consuming and annoying. When this first came out it was great, now it is terrible. Already put in for a replacement from another vendor. To bad, J5 has created some great products over the years.

Not Compatible with MacBook M1 Pro 2021
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This doesn't appear to work with the new Macbook M1 Pro laptops, which is the reason I purchased this in the first place. Makes it seem like a waste of money unfortunately, and I will likely be returning the product.

Posted .Hello,
We appreciate you for sharing your review and feedback. The docking station does not require the external charger. The charger is primarily for powering your laptop. One of the display connections requires that the USB-C port that the docking station is plugged into has a hardware feature called Display Port Alternate Mode. Have a good day.
Thank you,

Does not work on M1 devices.
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Unacceptable that they don't tell you anywhere that this does not work on M1 devices until you attempt to download the driver. It's pretty much garbage for me. Hopefully I can return it. So beware, if your on an M1 device d save your money.

Runs my old monitor

I would recommend this to a friendBrand response from J5create Team
Posted .Putting older monitors to use in duplicate or extend mode with your Windows or Mac computer is part of the picture with the JCD543; supporting up to three displays at once make it highly sought.
Gratefully,

USB Type-C Triple Display Docking Station
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Outstanding compatible to different station setups.
I would recommend this to a friendNot a long term solution
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After 18 months, the connections in all three of the UPS ports have worn out. I now have to go in about once a month and bend down the prongs to make a working connection. And these are connections that never get unplugged, specifically my external keyboard and my WACOM tablet.
