Anker USB C Hub, 11-in-1 Docking Station Dual Monitor, 10 Gbps USB-C and USB-A Data Ports, 4K HDMI and DisplayPort, 85W Power Delivery, 2 Data Ports, Ethernet, for XPSECOLOGO

The product worked well right out of the box. There was a clean and quick interface connection. I liked the small compact design.

I initially purchased this dock for my laptop as I needed the extra ports. Anker has been a reliable brand for me and this product lived up to expectations. I have since purchased a second dock since I found out I can use it with my iPad Pro and also with my new iPhone 16 Pro which has a USB-C port. The versatility, small size and weight, and reliability make it easy to carry. I interface two additional monitors from this dock, external drives, and SD cards from my cameras. I also use it to connect my wireless keyboard and mouse on all the devices, which allows me to use my iPad as laptop. I am rough with my stuff and this hub has held up to my abuse. Highly recommended.

Great piece of equipment for my XPS 13, which has only 2 C ports. This opens up my system. It contains 3 USB A ports, two slower and one faster. This should be reversed. The power c port died after about six months, but Anker quickly sent me another one. Size is good for carrying in your case. Good quality. Nice appearance. The Ethernet cable port is very tight, and I’ve broken two cables trying to remove them.

Update: By process of elimination, I was able to figure everything out. Firstly, I was using the 30W charger that came with the M1 Macbook Air and not getting the juice that I needed. I then used an Anker 65W I had for a phone in my household and it worked perfectly. I was also getting glitches on the 4K monitor, so I replaced the HDMI cable with a newer and faster one. It works perfectly now (so far), so I'm changing my review from 3 stars to 5 stars.All this being said, I highly recommend this adapter, I'm very happy with it now that I ironed out all the kinks surrounding my own set up. It does exactly what Anker advertises! I'd definitely purchase another in the future as a backup. Also, Anker support reached out to me immediately after seeing this review and offered a full refund. I definitely appreciate the gesture, but I'm going to refuse the refund.Original review:All the ports work as described except for the Power Delivery pass-through. I don't know if I received a bad unit, because my friend has an identical one and it works for him perfectly. My unit charges my M1 Macbook Air very very slowly, and it sometimes loses power while plugged in depending on the weight of the tasks running. That being said, I'm using the 30W charger that came with the laptop.I'm in Panama, so I can't send it back. I hope they see this and send me another unit.

I have my laptop on a fairly tall laptop stand with lots of things connected to it. I needed a hub so I can quickly take one chord out in order to take my laptop with me, then plug it back in with one chord when at desk. This does just that.I was concerned about the length of the cable reaching the laptop on my laptop stand so I bought a cheap male to female USB-c extension cable that adds another 7" and it works perfectly fine. Hasn't been long but I'm happy with it so far.update 7/6: Works great on my personal laptop but for some reason the mouse and the keyboard don't work when plugged into my work laptop, even though the monitor still works. I wish it worked on both :(.

UPDATE:Nope, it's just the hub. :(It's either defective or not a good product, which is unfortunate.The stutter issue has been resolved, but I can still not use the dock to push an image to my secondary monitor (1080p).I spent several hours this evening updating drivers for my Lenovo Thinkpad E15 Gen2 (AMD) without success. FYI: This laptop DOES support PD+DP through USB-C, something I confirmed before trying to go down the USB-C route in an attempt to replace my ancient Diamond USB-A dock.An image was never sent to my second monitor, whether connected via HDMI or DP through the hub.In all cases, the monitor IS recognized by Windows, so some information is being communicated, just not an image to the monitor.During every attempt, when the monitor was first plugged in, responsiveness in Windows would stutter, lag, and generally respond slowly to my KB+M inputs until, eventually, the laptop caught up and was OK.I am highly disappointed and am considering returning both products, but the USB-C dock is definitely returning.It would be nice, but I don't need a 100W charger.My hope of replacing my current USB-A dock is diminishing at the price point I was hoping for, so we shall see if it's up to the task of the new 2K monitor I have on the way and go from there.Original:Buyer be cautioned:The Anker 565 USB-C also needs power for itself, which is evident if you think about it, but it's not stated anywhere that I could find, and it may not dawn on you until things aren't working quite right.Lack of power could cause many issues I've read about in reviews.The issue:Mouse movement would stutter every 5-10 seconds.Though Windows recognized my HDMI monitor in Device Manager/Display settings, no image was sent to it through the Anker hub.Current theory:So, the manufacturer's 65W USB-C charger for my laptop cannot FULLY power the hub with one connected HDMI monitor, two USBs, and Ethernet through the USB-C hub.I did not test the two USB devices (Keyboard and headset) as there was little need once the stuttering began, which was immediate.I have an Anker Nano 100W arriving tomorrow, and I will update the review once I've re-tested.Suggestion:My ask to Anker would be to *estimate* the power draw of their dock and list it somewhere with many warnings, etc.If they wanted to go above and beyond and add averages for peripherals and the like, that would be amazing, but if not, I would understand, as I'm sure that information could become dated fast.A power warning would have prompted me to consider the power charging situation, and I may gone with one of their docks (About a $100 increase) instead. But now that I'm annoyed, I'll purchase a 100W charger that I can use for my work laptop and elsewhere as needed. :)They are still getting my money, but not as much.They make amazing products, but small details like this matter to me as a consumer.
