This little hub is simply amazing! I recently got a new MacBook Pro and I couldn't use my old Lenovo dock for my dual monitors on my desk because of issues that Macs can't tell the difference between the different monitors. But this dock is thunderbolt and the communication lets it tell the monitors apart so I can have 3 separate displays (laptop and two external monitors) or close the laptop and have 2 separate displays. Works perfect, no software required. The only thing worth noting is that this is buss powered and my laptop seems to want to power down when I close the lid unless it is plugged in. I might be able to fix this in settings but I'm really happy I don't need an expensive hub or dreaded extra software to get my external displays working for the Mac. Additionally, this hub also works flawlessly with my Lenovo laptop, where the actual Lenovo hub would take forever to recognize it was plugged in and still would shut off one monitor while working randomly..

This dock just works. I’m running dual monitors, ethernet, multiple USB drives, and charging everything through one Thunderbolt cable. No lag, no dropouts, no BS.Build quality is top-tier, and the ports are well placed—not crammed together. SD card slot is fast, audio jack is clear, and I haven’t had to unplug/replug once since I set it up.If you’re serious about a tidy desk and reliable performance, this is the one to get. OWC nailed it.

DId a lot of research, I've built my own computers since the days of green and white paper for monitors.Unboxed, everything shutdown laptop. Plugged in my monitors (Thunderbolt to DP and mini DP to DP), keyboard, mouse, hand pad (for gaming). Astro A50 headset and an Anker powered USB 3 hub.I've never had a single issue with any of these, they also work with my new gaming laptop no issues.First, the mouse is stalling, when I try to move it, it "sticks" for a couple seconds. Computer had plenty of time to boot. I setup the monitors, seems ok, but mouse is still sticking.Go into a game, I'm getting less than 50 FPS, ok, maybe the entire unit needs to reboot. I shutdown the laptop, then unplug and replug the unit.I boot, same thing mouse is sticking to the point of several seconds, then it stops altogether (Razer mouse), laptop pad still works. Monitors start flickering. Wow...I try to reboot the laptop, it reboots, having reset the video, now one of my ASUS gaming monitors shows "Out of Range". When it finally boots, it doeesnt recognixze the mouse at all, that I had plugged directly into the unit instead of USB3 hub. Agian, no issues EVER with any of this hardware.I wait for it to finish booting, which took forever. Wow, mouse still lagging, I shut down and remove the USB3 hub, so only thing plugged into this is network cable, thunderbolt to monitor, mini DP to DP with second monitor, KB and Mouse still directly into unit.After boot stalls for about two minutes, the screens start flickering. WTF.I shut the laptop down, unplug everything, power cycle, I put the Thunderbolt monitor directly to laptop, same mini DP to DP, plug the powered USB3 hub back into the laptop. Essentially everything exactly as it was before this hub...I boot up, everything is perfect just as before. I assure you, it's not user error, I'm on patched Win11 Pro, the scant information inclluded says drivers are necessary for Apple, none apparently needed for Windows. Wow.Other note, I got this one so I could use S/PDIF that is on my headset, but this unit will not let you use SPDIF and the 3.5mm plug at the same time. I send voice and Teams to one channel, then music through the 3.5. Again everything perfect with laptop and direct plugged in, wouldnt work with this hub.Mine might be an outlier with my experience, but no way would I ever plug another unit from OWC or at this point any hub given this. Frankly, I was concerned it was going to roast something in my laptop.
