StarTech USB-C Multiport Adapter for Laptops - Power Delivery - Silver/White

So much provided in one little device! I mean really, it's more of a "docking station" than simply an "adapter". Yet it fits in one's pocket! The adapter can be used with or without the laptop's power passing through. With power connected, everything works, AND the laptop charges. If you are going to go from powered to unpowered or vice versa, disconnect the whole device, add/remove power, then reconnect the device. This prevents the video passthrough from hanging up. Would still prefer to a removable USB-C cable on this, so I can use a longer cable or replace it (I broke the USB-C connector on a previous model (the black one), so the whole device went out with the bathwater, so to speak. But.... this device does what it is supposed to do, so I'm not complaining about the design too much! I received this product in exchange for an unbiased review.

I have tested this dock with multiple devices including Lenovo laptops and even Samsung S8 phone. There are so many ports and everything works well and quickly. This dock comes in a box about the size of 3 DVD cases. If feels very light and is made of metallic coloured plastic. Everything connects to the dock nice and firmly so the cables don't wiggle lose. The dock is about the size of a deck of cards with round sides and a 10 inch cord. The dock can pass through power to charge the device that is connected using the USB-C port. When I connected this dock everything connected started working automatically within seconds. The network worked fast and I never noticed a glitch from the HDMI port. This dock is actually labeled as an "adaptor" but it more like 5 adaptors in one and enough ports for everything that I would normally use in a docking station. This adaptor/dock worked really fast and reliably with everything I connected to it. I received this product in exchange for an unbiased review.
