Belkin Thunderbolt 3 Dock Core

Works perfectly with my MacBook Pro with M1 Pro chip. I have two 4k@60 monitors, ethernet, webcam, power, and speakers all working great! Such a good deal compared to other thunderbolt docks. Only issue is the short cable, but a thunderbolt extension cable addressed that.

Great little dock, I do wish it had USB-C inputs, but oh well for its low price it does anything I need to. It’s about as plug and play as it gets, the 60w charging isn’t as fast as I wish, but I don't notice it since I’ll leave my MacBook plugged into it overnight. That being said if you’re using an Intel based MacBook Pro the 60w might not be able to keep up with the power demand of the laptop. The designs simple, I with my mediocre 3d modeling skills managed to make a mount for it so no complaints there. All in all it does what I need it to and nothing more it fits its “Core” branding perfectly.

The form factor is terrible. Having wires come out of four different sides is an ergonomic nightmare and there is no desk arrangement that could possibly accommodate it. That's on me though -- I should have realized from the pics. The bigger issue is that it stopped working altogether after a week. All of the ports stopped working. I tried different computers, monitors, cables ans peripherals. Nothing. RIP.

This works great. I can charge my phone or other device - I can charge my computer through it. It has 2 UCB-A ports and an HDMI and a Display port. Ethernet port and audio out 3.5mm - all seem to work great. I wish it had a USB-C port so I could plug in my external hard drive - only USB-C port on it is for charging- I should have looked closer. Not an issue with the device just my error. I would buy it again for my MacBook Pro- takes 1 port for all of my devices and expands my capabilities.

I purchased this dock for 2017 MacBook Pro 15. It generally worked but here is what I observed: Pros: - reasonable set of ports provided - support for 2 4k @60Hz via DP and HDMI (one of each), which is reasonable for these days - gig ethernet - no unreasonable amount of obsolete USB-A ports - power passt hru Cons: - the hard-attached cord to your computer is too short and somewhat "hard" - the "star" design. Each side has some cables coming out. It makes it hart do hid it behind you screen or close to some wall. - power pass-thru somehow registered as only 45W (compared to 60W advertised) with my 61W Apple brick. This may be a design limitation and probably my oversight. - unnecessary audio port. It's surprisingly annoying on Macs because you cannot simply disable it and it gets in the way as selected Audio Out quite often. Ultimately I ended up returning the dock and went with CalDigit Dock Mini DisplayPort version, which has no support for power but fits better my use case

I bought this knowing that I would have to make tradeoffs. I wanted a travel-sized docking station that I can use with both a Mac and a PC. While the size is great, the tradeoffs were more limiting than I liked and, most importantly, the USB ports do not work at all with my mouse and keyboard on my PC. My PC is an IBM ThankPad P52. My Mac is a brand new MacBook Pro 13" Let's start with the trade-offs. I know when ordering this that (1) it would no power my P52 and (2) that it would not support extended desktop display with my Mac. The power tradeoff was fine. I don't expect to have a docking station that will work with both my Macbook and my PC that will power the P52. Similarly, I don't mind not being able to extend a window across two screens. I never do that anyway. I have some windows on one screen and other windows on the other. So long as I can drag application windows from one window to the next, I'm happy. There are two reasons that I had to return this: first, the USB ports do not work with my PC; and second, the ethernet connection does not work with either laptop. Another reviewer stated that the USB ports on his item were defective, but I believe that they were likely not dead, but just didn't play well with his laptop. The reason I say this is that my USB mouse (a Posturite "Penguin" handheld grip USB mouse) and my keyboard (a Kinesis Advantage Pro USB keyboard) are not recognized by my PC when plugged into the docking station, but ARE recognized by the MacBook. Note that both mouse and keyboard are recognized when plugged directly into my PC's USB ports. In fact I've been using this mouse and keyboard for years on multiple computers and with other docking stations with no issues. I didn't test with other keyboards or mice. I have had RSI issues in the past and rely on these expensive and excellent mice and keyboards, have never had compatibility issue with them with any other device, and they are quite expensive. I'm not replacing my keyboard or mouse to accommodate a docking station. Also annoying is that if I connect an ethernet cable from my router into the docking station, I cannot use it to get Internet on either my PC or Mac. I have to switch to Wifi. When I connect the ethernet cable directly into my PC, I get Internet through it. If I can't use my mouse or keyboard with the docking station and if I can't take take advantage of the stronger and more stable Internet connection through an ethernet cable, then this is not much of a docking station. Normally, I've had go experiences with Belkin products. According to their website, Belkin recommends their Belkin USB-C® Dual Display Docking Station, INC002 for Macs with the new M1 chip. I've ordered one of these. Even though I don't need to connect multiple displays, hopefully it will at least let me connect my ethernet, mouse, and keyboard to both my PC and Mac.

Just brilliant!!

In general, quite happy with it. No glitches during use of it. Biggest complaint is rediculously short laptop cable. No extra cable to provide any type of strain relief. Connection to laptop always seems kinked unless docking station is perfectly in line with laptop port. Also be advised that cables come out all 4 sides of this docking station, so make sure you have adequate desk space.

It works really well. Plug and play with a Macbooc pro

Compact, good price and a reputable brand. Not a lot of ports but enough to connect a laptop to 2 monitors and provide charging all via one cable between dock and laptop. Won't sufficiently power laptops that need more than 60-65W.

After a couple of days, it works good for my case, and I frequently switch between two MacBook Pro produced in recent years, 2018-2020. Pro (not sure how it works on the older/Windows laptops) - Compact - Easy to use, just plugin Cons - The built-in cable is too short. - USB ports are less, no USB-C data transport port

Lenovo Thinkpad dizüstü bilgisayarımda sadece 1 adet HDMI giriş yeri mevcut. Bilgisayar şarj aleti takılı eş zamanlı olarak çift monitör kullanmak imkansızdı. Bu ürün ile aynı anda çift monitör kullanabiliyorum ve makinam şarj olabiliyor. Kullaklık girişi ve 2x USB girişlerinin olması da iyi bir özellik teşkil ediyor. Ürün 3 gün içerisinde Almanya Amazon tarafından gönderilerek teslim edildi. Çok memnunum ve tavsiye ediyorum.

I have had this for almost an year. It was great value for money for supporting 2(two) 4K monitors. I had searched a lot and there was nothing available at this price. To that extent this is good. BUT ..2 issues 1) It’s a bit wonky and sometimes doesn’t recognise the signal & I don’t see anything in the monitor…so I have to reboot the windows machine. It’s happened sufficient number of times that it does bother me. 2) the rigid short cable that connect to the laptop invariable gets disturbed if the machine moves just even a bit and that has resulted in the usb-c port on the machine becoming loose ie again sometimes it just doesn’t connect and I have to fiddle with it which is not good for the port. Otherwise, it seems to work well…I use it both for my Dell XPS and now mostly for my Mac Mini M1(it will stay on it from now on)
