This review is on the 4URPC docking station. I have had this dock for almost a month. I am a fan of docking stations because they just make sense. They provide the ability to use your notebook as a desktop with a minimum amount of effort. By this I mean that you set your notebook down and connect just one cable and you are in business. In my setting I am using a Dell XPS 15 notebook. This is a high powered notebook- i9 processor, lots of memory and a 130-watt power supply. I have the 130-watt power supply connected to the dock which in turn supplies power to the notebook. I only have to plug a single usb-c cable from the dock to the notebook to become functional. I have the following devices connected to the dock: • two monitors connected via HDMI cables. • a wireless keyboard/mouse connected via usb • a webcam connected via usb • an external hard drive via usb • a wired ethernet connection Everything works fine. There is one issue with the dock which I will address. This dock is designed to support a notebook computer vertically to save space on the desk. If someone’s work required them to frequently take their notebook with them when they left their desk then this dock would be a good solution, because you simply unplug one cable and you’re good to go. However, if you leave your notebook at your desk most all the time then you will come across this issue. If you shut down your computer you cannot turn on the computer unless you remove it from the stand, open it up and then press the power button. At that point you return it to the stand and use it normally. This is somewhat of a hassle. I have used a Dell notebook dock which has the same functionality as the 4URPC, but in addition it has a power button on the dock itself. This means if the computer is connected to the dock, you do not need to open it up and press the power button to begin using your computer. This is my suggestion: Add a power button to the dock to be able to power-on the computer. This may or may not be an issue for others. In addition to the Dell, I have tested this dock with an ASUS Chromebook. It worked fine with the Chromebook. If you are considering this dock, just be aware this is designed for commuters that are powered by usb-C. If your computer does not get power by a usb-C cable, then you should look for another dock.

This dock performs as expected and is true to the product description. There are areas that could be improved upon: 1. The host connector port is out in the front and so it can be quite unsightly - should be placed in the back with the power cable port for better cable management and aesthetics. 2. The dock does not allow for the prongs to be adjusted and so depending on your laptop, it may not be a perfect fit and have some wiggle room. 3. The product does NOT come with a power brick and so youll need an adequate usb c powered brick. Despite the areas for improvement, the product does everything it describes and fully functions for a WFH setup. It is well-built and will update with longer use.

This USB docking station requires USB-C DisplayPort Alt Mode or Thunderbolt 3 or 4 to properly extend your monitor. It has a thin and solid build, and I particularly like the metal case. Even during 10+ hours of continuous daily usage even with some intensive gaming, I was surprised that it didnt even get warm. The ambient temperature ranges between 68 to 72 degrees. My second surprise was that although the docking station is advertised to only support 2 extended monitors at 1080P @ 60Hz, it actually supports both my 4K and QHD monitors at 60Hz simultaneously. Additionally, it works perfectly with my internal laptop monitor at 1080P @ 60Hz, which means I have a total of three monitors working seamlessly together.

This dock was provided to me by 4URPC to test/evaluate it. I am typically offered new products by 4URPC to evaluate and test for them. I purchase the dock and then they reimburse me. Please know that I am reimbursed prior to writing any reviews and my reviews are 100% honest. I also provide feedback to 4URPC. For this dock I will start by stating the design is very similar to other models. My evaluation is solely based upon my use with an HP ZBook Firefly 14 inch G8 Mobile Workstation running Windows 10 22H2. I have been using it almost daily for 8 + hours a day for ~ 8 weeks now. At first I had some issues with the built in NIC registering a connection. I am not sure what caused this, maybe a driver needed to be updated, but after about 60 seconds it started working and I havent had an issue since. I did let 4URPC know and they recommended I send an email to their support team. However, I never did since I havent had an issue since. I have noticed that sometimes after disconnecting my laptop and then later reconnecting my laptop will not detect the dock. All drivers and OS are up to date. To resolve the issue, I find disconnecting the laptop from the dock, disconnecting the dock from power let the dock sit for ~ 5 seconds, reattach power cable to dock and then attach laptop back to dock, it then detects it. This happens from time to time on all docks from my experience to I am not too concerned about this. My one recommendation I made 4URPC was to include the power supply with the dock like they do with other models. I dont like having to go out and purchase a power supply matching it up, etc. It isnt a big deal but I would prefer that they just provide a complete setup. They stated they would let their engineers know. Other than that I have no complaints. The unit works as expected and I have always liked the design of this type of dock as it gets my laptop up our of the way giving me some desk space back. I do recommend this dock model for at least use with pc laptops.

Ive been using this docking station for two months now and use it almost every day. During this time, Ive had no issues or failures with it. I use the dock for my MacBook 12inch laptop seen in the photos and my wife uses it for her Dell Latitude laptop. Simply hook up the USB-c cable from the dock to the PC or Mac and were good to go with dual screens or just the one monitor. I Also like how it has the built in stand for your laptop but may have preferred an option where the vertical laptop holders could be removed so the dock could be placed under the monitor stand. All in all, I have several 4URPC docks at home and for work and none of them have given me any issues. 4URPC seems to make a quality product and I have not been disappointed.

nice sturdy design with a spot to place your laptop and keep it out of the way. Helps organize your cord mess pretty well.

The concept is great. I have a hybrid laptop so I can stand it up in open position or fold over edges if I still want to use the laptop screen. I did not realize a power supply did not come with it but I had one for it. The ports are just enough to supply everything I need. Great product.

4URPC Laptop Docking Station Stand is perfect to setting my dual monitors, camera, wireless keyboard mouse, and speaker. This has 2HDMI ports, 3 USB Ports, SD card Port, and 3.5mm Audio jack. I have used this for a week now and it has not failed me yet. Great product for the price and highly recommended.

This is a great stand. I it has a the ports you need and still allows you to use the laptop ports. Matches my Lenovo perfectly.

Great little dock if you need to reclaim some of your real estate on your work surface. It works great. Ethernet port had excellent transfer rates, USB ports and audio out all worked fine. I already had two external monitors, so giving up the laptop screen was not a big deal. I was concerned there might be a heat issue with the laptop closed, but that was not the case. I have an unusual setup, in that this Dell computer is being used as a true desktop replacement. While I have wireless printer and I am using a Bluetooth keyboard and mouse, I still have a USB scanner, USB label printer, external USB webcam, USB microphone, USB backup drive, etc. Given the small, but very sturdy base, there just is not room for the number of ports I required. That being said, I just attached a simple small USB hub and problem solved. Lastly, for Windows users who use “Windows Hello” for sign in and to verify identity for secure programs, you would have to go back to using a PIN or one of the better webcams with that feature. Off course that applies to all of the stand-up format docks, not just this one. Overall, at this price point, a nice way to cleanup your work surface and only have a single cord to the laptop.
