I used this dock for few weeks and can't wait for share my experience. Unbox the dock and it is a well design with rich port on both front and back side. The device look quite elegant and solid with the well color aluminum case. When you holding on it, you could feel the quality and weights. Connect to my Macbook pro, it could easy to extend to 3 screens. With the USB C connection, the usb hub working smoothly. I connect 2 extra usb disk and external disk to the deck for my jobs. Since I also have an Alienware Aurora desktop. I am trying to combine my working macbook and it. The switch time between my macbook pro and desktop are crazy amazing. I could easy switch between work and gaming. Then I try to think maybe it will be also great to make a working environment more interesting. I grab my stream deck and try to see how it works. Boom~ It just works. I could just play my steam deck with the big screen. Since it comes more interesting, I just move all my gaming console to have the trial run. XBox X : working great PS 5: working great. I am still finding more fun with the dock, it indeed a great deivce. If you try to find a dock with rich peripheral for your working environment, just try it.

I had BenQ dock for about 3 days. In those 3 days, the dock was constantly hot even when left idle. Front usb inputs and back were loose fit. Had to return because even with the $40 off coupon they had at the time, it still taxed almost $290. I.e the original price Don’t get me wrong, it’s great dock! Worked perfect, the hdmi swapping was flawless compared to other 3rd party docks. But for the price! The difference isn’t noticeable!! I have an Anker dock that has everything I need for my MacBook, and I have a 3rd party hdmi split converter. That’s $28-30 vs $300 dock system. I’ll definitely be buying it again if they have a bigger sale, knock $100 off and you’ll see a skyrocket of purchases.

I bought one docking, one external USB hub and HDMI 2 TO 1 switcher before but was very troublesome as I have to connect several devices and messy cords are very annoying. This BENQ docking station release my home office and reduce lots of devices from my desktop. There are several advantages I enjoyed: 1. I can connect 3 monitors, 3 external HDDs, and remote keyboards to support my daily works for multi tasking and separate storage access at the same time. 2. One bottom switch from my laptop input into Switch when I wants to play games but still able to keep my meeting on with other monitors 3. 3.5mm input to connect my headset 4. Extend front USB to easy plug for my USB drive and card reader when I edit my video clip and vlog easily. Most important point is - it is all in one and easy set up!

Got mine around two weeks. Download the driver as guided in the box. Setup was super easy and works as expected. I have my PS5 connected with HDMI and laptop with ONE USB-C cable which removes those dongle and cables from the laptop. Switching is smooth and never goes wrong on syncing video and audio. I like the comcact design and it well considers the product weight to avoid the tension from cables. I worried about the product is too small and can't sit tight on my desk because of those cables. But it's not. the balance of the size and weight is very good. Front USB-C port provides 36W charge which can be access easily when needed.

I bought this product to use in the office so that I don't need to plug out so many cables whenever I need to take my laptop away. Just one type C is more simple. The dock cables come with a loop tape, so that can be organized easily. One thing I like is this product can be powered off by long press the green button, saving the energy is saving the world.

I tried to search the dock station for my new MacBook Air with M2 chip which only has two usb c ports and could not support two external monitors. This BenQ dock comes with DisplayLink technology that can expand the connectivity of the MacBook Air to multiple monitors! It is amazing that now I only to connect one usb cable to my MacBook Air and I can have two external monitors working perfectly and it also charge the MacBook smoothly. It also works perfectly with my old 2018 MacBook Pro with intel chip that I used to have to connect two usb c ports to two different converter in order to connect two monitors. This really convenient and makes the desk much cleaner than before. This docking station is also shipped with care and two high quality usb c cables were included which save you extra money and time to search and buy a new one.

First one had some issues, exchanged for a new one and has been working great

I haven't posted a review in years. This Dock is awful and absolutely useless. Overheats, and most importantly doesn't switch inputs without turning the dock off and on again. Literal paper weight! First ever BenQ product purchased, never again!
