![]() Targus USB-C Universal Quad 4K Docking Station ports However, these don’t offer eight different video outputs along with other ports, so it’s understandable why Universal Quad 4K Docking Station is as big as it is. ![]() Compared to other sizeable docking stations, Targus’ miniature tank eclipses the Anker Apex Thunderbolt 4 Docking Station ( 7.3 x 2.9 x 1.3 inches, 1 pounds) and Kensington SD5700T Thunderbolt 4 docking station (7.1 x 3 x 1.2-inches, 0.9 pounds). With dimensions of 8.2 x 3.5 x 1.7 inches and weighing 1.5 pounds, you’ll want to leave enough room on your desk for Targus’ docking station, and hope you’ll never have to relocate. Otherwise, it’s a magnet for specs of dust that can’t be brushed off, and the crevices along the edge will quickly become a home for even more dust. There’s a questionable rubberized grip placed on top of the device, which may be Targus’ way of inviting owners to place more flavorful objects on top of it (like this Stormtrooper). Regardless, if you’re after maximum screen real estate, Targus’s docking station delivers the plots of visual land.Īs for the docking station itself, it’s a plain, chunky gray slab that won’t do much to spice up your personalized desk setup. For $482.99/£429.99, we’d at least expect an SD card reader, too. What it doesn’t offer is the latest generation of connectivity, Thunderbolt 4, along with a worthwhile price tag. Oh, and there’s a 3.5mm audio jack and Ethernet slot for good measure. Targus’ screen hoarder also comes with a mix of noteworthy USB-A 3.2 and USB-C 3.2 ports to connect all the peripherals any laptop user would need and charge other devices such as a smartphone or tablet. With four DisplayPort 1.2 on top of another four HDMI 2.0 outputs, the docking station can support a single 5K and four 4K displays - plus your laptop screen. The Targus USB-C Universal Quad 4K Docking Station, also known as the Four Head 4K Dock, doesn’t just offer the standard two or three video outputs to transform your laptop into a multi-screen setup, but eight different ports. But Targus, well-known for its plethora of laptop accessories, now offers a different angle: Quad 4K potential. The latest and greatest docks deliver external monitor support with 4K resolution capabilities, and companies such as Satechi are even bringing 8K resolution into the fold. Supports: Devices running Windows, macOS and Chrome OS.ĭocking stations give our laptops the extra edge to become the desktop replacements we always knew they could be.
