[Intel Certified] Cable Matters 40 Gbps 14-in-1 Thunderbolt Dock with Dual 4K 60Hz DisplayPort or HDMI, 100w Charging, Gigabit Ethernet, Compatible with USB 4 / Thunderbolt 4 for MacBook Pro, Dell

Works very well with apple silicon MacBook Pro. Connects at the full fat 40gbs as advertised. Plug and play, works right out the box with my MacBook. EXCELLENT value for money. If you are looking through the mess of available “docks” for an m1 or any apple silicon Mac, and you cant seem to find one that works as advertised without spending $200, this is what you want. It is real thunderbolt, no USB4 shenanigans where it works with some machines and both with others. It’s real thunderbolt 3 and supports multiple monitors on apple silicon. The build is solid aluminum and high quality. It is compact and comes with a little stand to reduce the footprint. Literally the best price to performance of ANY dock I have tried and works flawlessly. Only complaint is that it technically connects in TB3 mode over TB4 but this doesn’t matter for real world use and isn’t likely to affect your use-case.

This seems to be a solid device. I've used it for only a full day with my new 14" Macbook Pro, today is my second day, but it was a long day with about 3 hours of Zoom and WebEx. It's fairly heavy, and comes with a nice weighted base, which I'm not using. Without the base, it's still heavy enough not to get pushed around by loads of stiff and heavy cables. I really like that everything hooks up in the back, so you can make a nice tidy installation. The power supply is substantial, it's a significant brick with a detachable AC cord, including a ground return. I only had two minor issues, which may not have been the fault of the dock. Once when I was moving stuff around (physically) the mouse quit responding, the other, when I did an OS upgrade and it automatically rebooted, with the laptop closed, the displays didn't come up. Both times, I just unplugged and replugged the dock any everything was fine again. It's likely those weren't dock issues. I wish my old PC (an X1 Carbon with the hard dock) were so compliant.I'm running: Two monitors, one is a 4K60Hz on HDMI, the other is 1650x1050(?) 60Hz on an HDMI to DVI converter cable; A GigE hardwired internet; A USB 4 port A/B switch with wired camera, mouse and keyboard.The dock is performing very well. No kinks or glitches with the display or usb, everything is working exactly as you would expect. It's had no issues with the computer going to sleep or anything strange. I did use the microSD port and copied several gig worth of photos from that to my networked NAS and it was pretty quick. When you're up and running it does get warm. I would recommend not stacking it up with a bunch of other gear, I have mine sitting on the desk under the two displays, where it's convenient to access the ports on the front, and like I said earlier about the weight, its not flopping around when you're trying to plug into the SD card or USB port, just one finger on top is enough to steady it when plugging in or out. Another thing I like is that it doesn't waste a bunch of space on USB2 ports. For my purposes they're useless. The two "accessory ports" on front are USBA and USBC 3.1 ports, so good for 5 Gb/s.To be honest, I bought this one because it was the only one available without waiting a week. It was less expensive than many of the others and I could get it delivered the same day, so I thought "what the hell, let's give it a go". I'm glad I did, as its a keeper. Thinking about, for example, the lack of a downstream Thunderbolt, it really isn't an issue. My objective was a convenient one cable dock for my Macbook. The TB4 is only good for 40Gb/s, no magic will increase that in the dock, so if you're running Ethernet, 2 4K displays, USB camera, mouse and keyboards, any attached mass storage is fighting over the scraps left over and isn't going to perform at its best, so if I had a stack of SSD's then I'd go for a second port on the Mac, not try to stick it in with the video! So I'd probably prefer a second Thunderbolt only breakout port just for mass storage. If you're running 1 or 2 DisplayPort or HDMI (or analog) monitors, this dock is very well designed.

I bought two of these for use on different monitor and TV set ups and everything works great with my 2024 MacBook Pro. The charging multiple monitor connectivity and additional ports make this very nice to use. The build quality and the stand is excellent and the value overall was good. I highly recommend this if you need a thunderbolt hub.

I purchased two of these Thunderbolt 3 docks on the prime day special deal.This dock build quality is excellent with a metal build and comes with a vertical stand that is solid.It has extensive ports which includes the following ports at the rear : 2 HDMI, 2 Display ports, five 5Gbps USB A ports, an Ethernet port, a Thunderbolt 3 port for the host computer with 96W power delivery and a power port.The front of the dock has an sd slot, a tf/micro sd slot, a 10Gbps USB C port, a 10Gbps USB A slot and an audio in/microphone port.This is a full featured Thunderbolt dock. It also comes with a short Thunderbolt 3 cable to connect the dock with a laptop and a robust power supply for the dock.I connected the dock to my MacBook Pro 14 inch with M1Pro and a 29 inch wide screen monitor and everything worked great. The Ethernet port delivers fast connectivity and the multiple usb ports are great to connect my wired keyboard and mouse as well as an external SSD.I would highly recommend this full featured high quality Thunderbolt dock!I am pretty happy with its performance so far.‘I use the second dock with my MacBook Air and it works flawlessly too!
