Questions & Answers

Can it be used with a Lenovo 80XM laptop?

In the event it works

How do I know if this is compatible ?

Yes, it will be able to work as it has a USB cable There is a USB 3.0 adapter and a USB C adapter. There is a two-way connector on 0

Do you have a Lenovo T440s that is compatible with this?

There is no issue with this dock working with the T440s. In our experience, this dock works great with the T450s (almost the same as the T440s). It is surprising that the Lenovo representative said that, given the cord is a hybrid usb-type cord (The USB connector on the laptop is attached to the external drive The adapter converts the type C plug to type A plug). After you connect, you may need to run driver updates on the dock to get it running (either via Lenovo's website or from the Lenovo vantage app in the Windows Store). It should be noted that this dock will not charge the laptop so you will have to add the Lenovo power brick to the dock for it to operate and charge.

Any monitor I try to use on this dock does not work
3/5

In addition to serving as a power supply, the dock can connect usb devices, but on my monitors, it does not recognize them. There is a laptop on the list of compatible laptops I have, the Carbon X1 Gen 6. But that did not solve the problem. I've updated all the drivers and firmware. As soon as I connect a HDMI or DP cable to the dock, the laptop screen just goes on or off indefinitely until the cable is removed. My display settings were set to Windows display settings as well as the graphics control panel on Intel. The HDMI and DP cables I have tried have all been different. It has been 4 different monitors for me so far. The Ubuntu version of the software works for me. Both of the connectors worked for me. The Lenovo laptop I've tried is different from the one I used previously. It is not possible to connect the screens.

The Lenovo Flex 5 is compatible with this app
5/5

The Lenovo Flex 5 14" AMD Ryzen 4500u model works perfectly with this adapter! As it is designed to be a stationary laptop connected to a monitor, I was a little hesitant whether this would actually work. However, it did! There is one USB cable attached to my computer A 24" monitor, mouse, keyboard, and external ssd harddrive via an extra USB cable are all part of my setup Ensure you have an Ethernet cable attached to the c port. This product does not feel hot to the touch, and no issues have been reported after using it for two weeks. It looks very slick and I like the red beneath even if you can barely see it. But just like the laptop, it sure has style.

This dock comes in very handy when one does not have a Thunderbolt 3 port on their computers
5/5

I have been permanently tangled up with seven cables and key fobs between my personal and work laptops as I constantly switch between the two. It is a COVID-based As part of the 19 Coronavirus lockdown, I'm working from home during the day and then connecting my laptop as needed in the evenings and on weekends. As I have the older model Thunderbolt 3 dock for my ThinkPad T470s, I wanted to upgrade to the newer model Thunderbolt 3 dock for it A Thunderbolt 3 port is available on my system, but I have repeatedly had warnings that the Thunderbolt 3 controller is no longer working and cannot connect to my devices. Lenovo tech support has not been able to resolve the issue. While this dock supports data transfer speeds up to 10 Gbps, Thunderbolt 3 docks are capable of speeds up to As for the performance, I'm getting it just fine, there is nothing I need to do differently. * Also, in reference to those 7 cables/fobs, they are as follows Plug in a USB power source Gigabit Ethernet, two external monitors connected to the two HDMI ports, a fob for an external keyboard and mouse, USB 2. 0, and a fob for an external keyboard and mouse With A, you have a wireless headset that is USB-based An extension cable that recharges the headset when it is not in use (which also charges the headset when it is It is now down to one key fob and I no longer have to use seven cables/fobs. The only thing I must do is plug the USB cable in The dock is connected to the USB port by a USB-C cable The port I have on my laptop is a C port. I was surprised that it also powers the laptop, so there is no need for an external power supply. This caught me by surprise since my laptop uses a special cable with a yellow rectangle connector instead of a USB As well as the USB-based system, I tried From Canada to the United States It would be great to have an adapter so I can connect the dock to a USB-type port There is no power to the laptop when I use this method, but everything else works just fine. In the product sheet that comes with the box, this is documented.

You don't want to miss this product once you set it The device is incredibly easy to connect and power on right out of the box
4/5

It's easy to read the labels because they are clear. As I am using it with a ThinkPad T470, everything is seeing just fine.
One thing to be aware of is the fact that this device is appearing as a USB hub in Windows 10, so certain device drivers need to be tweaked.
Audio is one such example, and you will need to adjust the Lenovo USB Audio when it is connected to USB audio. I suppose it is the same thing with monitors. There is no longer any way to use some of the Windows settings with your video card, so you will need to use the driver provided. To many people, it will not seem like a big deal, but I thought I'd It took a few seconds for the dock to recognize the devices I plugged in and I had to install some firmware updates before it could recognize them. Using a USB hub can cause Windows to tell you that there is not enough power or resources for a hub to operate from the dock when it is connected to a USB After all the updates and configurations are complete, the system works great. My time spent on this was about 25 minutes There is only time to complete it in 30 minutes. The price for the transaction was $250, which I believe to be rather However, this is the only one like it out there, so I had to get it to reduce the amount of cords and cables I have on I am glad I bought it, because it sits on my desk every day now and it's a very important accessory.

The product was great in terms of features/design, but poor in execution
3/5

The Lenovo Yoga 15 of 2021 is the computer I own. I am so glad to see you all! I have no complaints about the laptop. It has a dedicated video card. While I was researching Thunderbolt / USB-C I found this to be very interesting Docking stations on my laptop to maximize the use of my 32" 4K monitor and peripherals when I am at home. My ignorance of the TB spec when I bought the laptop meant I was buying a machine that will deliver 100w of power current. In the end, I was unable to power up my laptop directly from any dock. In that regard, I have no complaints about this dock. I started by stating that this dock has a lot of wonderful attributes. There are almost as many ports and port options on any dock I studied on any TB device I found. Due to the fact that it was a Lenovo dock (I suspected all of the features might work on my Yoga as they do on my ThinkPad), I came to a decision to purchase The Power Delivery didn't work - everything else was great Powered by 130 watts, my Yoga 15 consumes 130 watts. Even if it sucked, I could still The major fault of this dock is that it periodically drops the external video signal from the laptop in the middle of my work. I returned it because of this fault. The glitch seemed to be fixable, but it wasn't. After updating the dock drivers and firmware, I updated all the drivers on all my laptops, and it worked fine this time. Over the course of a week, I saw the same thing Putting it back in again resolved the problem. Unplugging and plugging in the Thunderbolt plug fixed the problem. There is no way to justify this. This is a serious flaw, which prevents you from working on anything. The Lenovo dock was returned to me, and I have since swapped it for a Unlike the Lenovo dock, my latest one does not suffer from the fatal video flaw - It has a wide array of ports, but is not prone to power loss. The key to this is the importance of that. It is reliable.
