About LIONWEI 13 in 1 USB C Docking Station
Overall Feedback:
73% positive
68% praised the wide compatibility, but 32% encountered issues
The USB hub works perfectly with my Dell XPS 13 laptop and is recognized automatically.
The Lenovo external monitor does not connect well with my laptop.
There is a problem with the two USB C ports. If I plug in the charger to one and the adapter for a monitor to the other, only one works at a time.
68% highlighted the power delivery feature, while 32% didn't
I am happy with the setup of Anker 100W block to supply power to this dock.
I can use various USB devices with the hub, but it does not provide enough power to charge the battery.
When I use the HDMI port to watch video on my 55-inch TV, there is a delay of about a second in audio and video synchronization.
I faced issues with the power delivery of the hub. The hub reduced the power from 65w block down to 52w, causing slow charging.
69% liked the variety of port types
The hub fits perfectly into the dual Thunderbolt ports and leaves the MagSafe 3 port open for charging my laptop, unlike some others that block that port.
70% appreciated the number of ports, yet 30% required more
The USB C dongle has 3 video outputs (2 HDMI, 1 DP) and about 2 more USB A ports than the average dongle.
The multiport takes both ports on my computer, which is different from what the photo in the description shows.
When I plug in the charger to one port and the adapter for a monitor to the other, only one works at a time.
To use the item, I need two USB C ports, but it only provides two USB C ports, so there is no net gain.

70% praised the data transfer speed, however 30% found it slower
The NVME drive connected to the other USBC drive performed great, maxing out close to the 10Gbps, similar to when I connected it directly to my laptop.
I noticed that the power reduced from 65w to 52w and I kept getting the slow charge message.
I had to use the dock in the non-lightning USB c port for data connectivity and bought a separate 4k 60 hz supporting cable to get my monitor to respond fast enough.
68% appreciated the cable length, but 32% required longer cables
I need a USB-C cord that is at least 12 inches long.
With all the cords connecting into it, it becomes difficult to position it correctly on the desk due to the short cable length.
The main connection cable for docking is less than a foot long and hard wired into the device, making it difficult for me to fit the dock where I want it. I wish it were longer or at least had a female input so I could use my own cable.
I have complained that the hub cord is too short and it has to lay on the laptop keyboard to reach other cables.
