There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
Update: Baseus was quick to reply to my support ticket and sent out a replacement.
- Construction: Is absolutely wonderful, the aluminum unibody is fantastic and makes it feel pretty sturdy to the touch, I had very little give with any ports and the card readers are not loose as some of the other docks out there.
- Dedicated ethernet port: Love this feature, a lot of ultrathin laptops don't have an ethernet port, neither do tablets, if you work in anything on the network, having an ethernet is a must.
- Output: Had no problems charging my full size laptop.
- Storage: I really like the cable stores in the casing feature, it makes it easy to store by itself and you don't have to carry an extra cable around that you might lose.
What I don't like
- The bandwidth seems to be shared between all the ports in the dock, which means that whenever you are copying a large file over your USB ports your ethernet speed will drop, you won't really notice this much when just browsing the web, but if you are copying a file from the network to an USB drive, oh boy does it crawl. As a note, this is probably a limitation on the space available inside the housing for pcbs, so can't fault Baseus as hard, but still...
- The placement on the card readers is not the best, specially if you have it connectected at home like an office dock (if you have it against the wall fixed, it is very finicky to remove them.)
What needs changing
- The LED is pointless and badly positioned, if you have it connected on the right side port of your laptop is just another reflection on the desk that does nothing.
- I/O distribution, here is what it needs to be:
> Front (from left to right): USB-A, USB-A, USB-C (all 3.1 or better), tiny pinhole LED that turns red when it is connected without any device and blue once you connect a device to it
> Side with no cable: Card readers
> Back (from left to right): USB-C (IN PD), USB-A (any spec), HDMI, HDMI, Ethernet port
This distribution would ensure all the user accessible IO is in a good place and all things that usually remain connected are in an easily accessible place.
3.5/5 the lack of USB-C in the front is a real oversight in 2022 for the price.
This device definitely cannot handle monitors with refresh rates over 60hz nor 4k. The quality control is attrocious. I have to prop the hub up at certain angles to make sure the HDMI cables make contact with the pins. The USB-C cable from the hub going into the computer is also loose. I had to 3D print a wedge to hold it in place.
After a lot of debugging, it seems that the root of most of the problems with this device is a lack of power. It simply cannot sustain more than a single device connected to it, which entirely defeats the purpose of a hub. I am currently writing this review and researching a better replacement on a single monitor because the hub is sitting in the garbage.
11/21/23 Updated: I have access to 2nd phone with moisture error still active. Sorry this device does not overcome this error on Note 10+. Yes I turned off supply power to USB port on HP laptop. I will check on data transfer direct to USB/Flash drive card later with my SamSung A14 which is my replacement working phone.
