    Belkin Mini Thunderbolt 3 Dock - MacOS and Windows - Dual 4k Display @60Hz is rated 2.90 out of 5 by 78.
    Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Dock This dock works completely as advertised. As working from home has become more common, this was very helpful to allow me to leave my standard dock at work and use this at home. I leave my peripherals, such as 2 monitors and usb mouse and keyboard, plugged in to the dock and just have to connect thunderbolt connection and good to go. I have seen some mention of problems with 2 monitors, but this worked effortlessly and no issues. I think users need to ensure their laptop's graphics can handle multiple screens and/or larger screens. The quality appears great, the product feels and looks well made. I have used for 2 weeks with no issues. The addition of power connections would make this a complete dock system, but it as advertised.

    Rated 5 out of 5 by from Worked Great on the Right PC I'm a huge fan of docking stations because I hate a messy, cluttered desk. The Belkin mini is right up my alley. Many of the ones that I've tried in the past are large and bulky, but this one is perfect. Unfortunately, the USB C was not compatible with my home PC. Luckily, I tried it out on my work PC and it works perfect. I love that it doesn't require a separate power attachment like others that add unwanted clutter. You do still have to run your power cord to the PC, but many that I've used (especially on the smaller side) require power to the PC AND power to the docking station. It has enough ports for what I need although you'll be short if your someone who uses a lot of connections. I was a bit disappointed that I couldn't use it at home, but it works flawlessly at work. Great little device.

    Rated 5 out of 5 by from EASY TO SETUP This Thunderbolt dock mini is perfect for my at home office. I love how easy this was to use and setup. I always wanted to setup dual monitors for work and this makes it so easy. This device has two HDMI ports, a Ethernet and a USB-A 3.0 and a USB-A 2.0 port. I love that it has a Ethernet port for faster connection speeds. I really like the size of this device. It is small and can easily be place out of sight and doesn't take up much room. I am very impressed with this product and I highly recommend it.

    Rated 5 out of 5 by from Clean, compact, effective! This mini dock has been an absolute life saver. I had a bulky Dell dock previously but this is just so much more efficient. It’s also not very easy to find a dual HDMI dock that is this small. Now I can use both my big monitors and take full advantage of their resolutions! The set up looks great. The only thing I say I would hope is if there were another port squeezed in to include power. But other than that its perfect.

    Rated 5 out of 5 by from Issues that need to be researched I was very excited to get this. I have a Chromebook I travel with from work to home. At work I have a docking station that I don't need to spend alot of time connecting to monitors and keyboard/mouse. At home, I pretty much max out all of the ports and this was going to be great that it would streamline it all for me. Unfortunately, it is not working for me. It does not have a power reading when I plug it in into my laptop. I need to research the issue and will update my review afterwards.

    Rated 5 out of 5 by from Didn't work for me These sorts of devices are such a mystery to me—why do they have to be so complicated?! Long story short, this didn't work for my setup. Not sure why, but when I tried to connect my Macbook Air to my second monitor, it just says "No Signal". Could be my tech un-savvy, or could be this dock. Not sure.

The dock itself is a good size and doesn't take up much space. I am happy with the speed and quality.

    Rated 5 out of 5 by from Multiple monitors My husband is a school teacher and is constantly bringing his work home with him. At school he had multiple monitors set up and things are as simple as they can be in this day and age. He’s been wanting the same set up at home, but we were unsure how to go about it with the laptop he has. The Belkin International Thunderbolt 3 Dock Mini HD allows him to have a similar set up at home. It makes multitasking so much easier which allows him to spend less time grading and creating lesson plans, and spend more time with the family.

    Rated 5 out of 5 by from Limited Capabilities I paired with an M1 Macbook Pro. The dock doesn't have the ability to allow power to run through it to charge the laptop so you're limited to just creating an extension of ports vs. being able to use it like a true dock.

    Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Product! I use my laptop and two screens at work, and I wanted to duplicate the workspace at home since I am working from there more than ever now. This is a great, relatively inexpensive- at least compared to what we use at work- option. It worked plug in play right out of the packaging. No issues whatso ever. I am using all ports except the LAN port since I have wifi at home. I have my wireless keyboard and printer plugged into the USB ports and two hdmi monitors plugged into it as well. I literally put my laptop on the desk, plug in my power cord and this little jewel and that is it!

It is simple, easy to use, and straightforward. It worked for exactly what I needed.

Would recommend this to those looking to expand their laptop screens to a monitor.

    Rated 5 out of 5 by from Laptop monitors I was finally able to hook up 4k monitors to my laptop using this with ease, and this allowed it to be 4k. It had extremely fast transfer speed and it's nice and small so it doesn't take up room. Being thunderbolt, you know it['s going to be fast when not using old USB slots. The quality of it lets you know it's not going to break, either. You can feel that it was made with the intention of lasting.

    Rated 5 out of 5 by from Thunderbolt 3 Dock Mini HD I use this doc with my macbook pro connected to 2 monitors, a mouse, a keyboard, and an ethernet connection. So far I love it. It's reduced a great amount of clutter on my desk. Also love that I can now use an ethernet connection instead of WiFi as the internet connection is a bit more stable now (nice quality of life improvement for the many zoom meetings I have now). The dock does get a bit warm when it's in use for a while, but I feel like that's pretty normal among dock's. This is a great dock if you have a small amount of connections you want to wire up.

    Rated 5 out of 5 by from Functional at First. NOT reliable after 90 days This product worked exactly how I expected for the first several months. It started having connectivity issues that have gradually gotten worse over time. I have only owned it for roughly a year now, but I feel like my money may have been wasted. When the device is constantly restarting, it starts and stops sending HDMI signals to the 2 additional monitors I have hooked up for my MacBook Pro. This makes my virtual meetings a nightmare when I am presenting.

    Rated 5 out of 5 by from Works great for dual screen, but USB laggy + heats I just bought and installed the product on my Dell XPS 7590 using my thunderbolt 3. I'm running 3 screens in total, two on the docking station and one on the laptop. Good stuff: -Screens are working perfectly fine -Simple to install Bad stuff: -Short docking station cable (I'm not taking out any stars since I knew it in the product specs when I bought it) -The USB are buggy and laggy. I have two wireless dongles for mouse and keyboard on them, the mouse is just freezing and unfreezing sporadically, which is extremely annoying. I've changed the mouse dongle directly in the USB of the laptop and the mouse if working fine there, but in defies the purpose of a docking station...(minus 1.5 star) -The docking station gets really hot with the 3 screens ON, that I'm afraid it will eventually burn (temperature is around 60C). I've put on top of the docking station a copper heat sink from an old CPU to cool it down, and that helps a lot of managing the temperature (minus 0.5 star). For the price, I do recommended it but if you are looking for something perfect, get something else as it clearly lacks of refinement & quality. Hope it helps Cheers

    Rated 5 out of 5 by from Terrible product This is a terrible product. It has two purposes: 1) to connect additional monitors, 2) to have an additional USB port. Neither of them work as intended. Initially my monitors worked fine, but this morning when my laptop booted up it did not recognize either of my two monitors. As for the USB, the only function that this has served was to provide power to a USB powered device. It would not read USB thumb drives or recognize wireless keyboard. Steer clear of this one.

I have to disconnect the hub and reconnect to have those devices work again... On a standalone basis it works ok, if you only need to attach 1 monitor. Only recommend if you don't have the need to attach an eGPU or additional monitor.

    Rated 5 out of 5 by from Works about 60% of the time I bought this in August 2020 from BestBuy to create a work-from-home two monitor setup (both monitors are Dell UltraSharp 24 inch FullHD monitors). This dock only works as intended about 60% of the time. The other times the dock requires multiple restarts and fiddling with different ports to keep both monitors working. If I plug in additional USB devices into the dock in a different order than usual, it glitches and one of the monitors usually has a screen split in half (hard to describe) and starts flickering. Sometimes it will not even recognize new USB devices plugged into it. Very disappointed given the price I paid for this.

    Rated 5 out of 5 by from Product is Unstable Does NOT Provide USB Support Bought two of the devices for my home office and my office so I could use two displays with my laptop without using DisplayLink systems or drivers. Laptop is a new ASUS Zenbook running W10 Pro with all updates current. Both offices use a Microsoft 850 wireless keyboard and mouse with USB dongle. USB2.0 and USB3.0 DO NOT work with keyboard/mouse or any other USB peripheral such as a standard flash drive. Does not work even if using a powered USB hub between the peripheral and dock. Technical support is what you would expect from a offshore call center. The problem can easily be found in the forum. I continue to use the docks because they do allow the two external monitors to work as needed - without DisplayLink. Even here, I have daily, sometimes twice or three times a day where the two external screens go dark for a couple of seconds then come back where they left off -- like the dock rebooted. Also, ever other day or so, I find that one displays starts jumping around to the point of being unusable and I have to unplug the dock and then plug back in to reset.

This dock would not recognize the HDMI ports being used to any monitor or TV, the USB ports being used, nor did it recognize the power over ethernet line. Really disappointed in this product for the price. I also found the Thunderbolt 3 cord is too short for my needs, I need something longer (1-2 meters). I should have had the larger HD Dock ordered instead. I did like the quality of this dock, which Belkin is always known for, but this was a big disappointment that it did not work out of the box and I will be returning this for something else.

Every time I disconnected it from my macbook pro, the computer would hard reboot and show the black screen of death "your computer restarted because of a problem". In addition to this, I had issues getting the USB ports to connect to anything from the start (would intermittently disconnect for no reason). Never tried the ethernet port but even when I was only using this for HDMI I would get crash on disconnect. I switched to the apple adapter and have had zero issues since then. Do not buy this.

No setup required. Basically just plug it in and use. Love that two can be on laptops at table at once. It has 2 HDMI ports and 2 USB ports. This dock is mini and lightweight and great! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

    Rated 5 out of 5 by from Good but large It does what it supposed to. I like the color and the casing feels metallic. It has 4 rubber feet. Depending on how you're using it, the USBC cable may be too short. Compared to others I have, this one is on the large size... Maybe because of the LAN connection?

    Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Product The Belkin ThunderBolt 3 Mini Dock is perfect  with my Macbook Pro (2017). It has a nice compact design. Making it easy to transport when you are on the go. Has multi-monitor support, and the Belkin thunderbolt3 mini dock increases the number of peripherals (printers, hard drives, mobile phones, cameras, etc.) that you can attach to your computer with two USB 3.0 ports and a gigabit ethernet port. I primarily use wireless networking on my laptop as it does not have a built-in ethernet adapter but thanks to the Belkin Thunderbolt3 mini dock I can connect to ethernet capable networks and leverage line rate gigabit speeds. The dual monitor support is amazing! I have two 4K monitors connected via HDMI to the Thunderbolt3 mini dock. The picture quality is outstanding being sourced from the laptop through the thunderbolt3 mini dock. There are no issues with rendering, image lag, pixelation or distortion. Smooth, crisp imagery every time. I highly recommend the Belkin Thunderbolt3 mini dock.

    Rated 5 out of 5 by from No good Similar to the other reviews here, plain doesn't work. Ethernet works, 1 screen works. USB ports don't work. Plug in 2nd screen, doesn't work, oh now the Ethernet's not working. Can't get 2 screens working at all (only 1080p) but unplug 1st screen, now the 2nd works. Tried on brand new Lenovo T590 and a Mac Pro 13.

    Rated 5 out of 5 by from QUALITY Thunderbolt 3 Hub with good features This will truly drive 4K displays at 60Hz on any Thunderbolt 3 enabled machine. While the price is not low, it is the lowest-priced item I've seen which supports dual 4K@60Hz through HDMI. Physically, the hub feels high quality, much better than the sub-$50 dongles all over Amazon. Some people have mentioned USB not working, but that is because in some systems you need to change the Thunderbolt 3 security settings you have in you BIOS for that to work. I was able to get the displays and USB ports to work 100% fine in a Lenovo Carbon X1 v6 using Linux (after a change in the BIOS TB3 security settings) and a Dell XPS 13 9360 using Windows 10 (which worked out of the box). I have not tried the included Ethernet adapter. Only thing that would be a noticeable improvement IMO would be for it to have power delivery.

    Rated 5 out of 5 by from doesn't work with Surface book 2 ordered it from Amazon, and i just realize that Surface Book 2 doesn't support Thunderbolt 3. for those that owns a Surface Book 2, please take note. unfair for me to make a rating since it's not supported in my device at all. only thing i could have comment is that the support should have taken a more proactive approach to advice me that Surface book 2 does not support thunderbolt, instead of replying me "if the device supports thunderbolt3, it should work fine".

    Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Idea / Major performance flaw with MacBook Used this with a MacBook purchased new in 2020. Connected two external displays (not 4K) and one USB external drive. It was fine. But noticed my MacBook took a long time to boot up. Like 5-10 minutes. Upgraded to a 1TB external drive. Then MacBook took 10-30 minutes to boot up. Then one day, my MacBook wouldn’t boot up after 90 minutes. After an hour with Apple support, they said the mini dock was sucking too much power. The MacBook had no power left to boot up. Apple pinpointed it to the external drive. Called manufacturer of external drive. They said no way the drive could use that much power. They sent a replacement drive. Same issue. Called Apple support. Apple said it’s the mini dock. They suggested only using a dock with separate power supply. I’m not even using all four ports on this product and it’s useless. Wasted time, money, and productivity.

    Rated 5 out of 5 by from Don't waste your money Nothing but issues. First one I purchased didn't work so they sent a replacement. The second was working fine for about 4 weeks and now the USB ports stopped working. They want to send me a 3rd replacement. Customer service is a hassle and I've invested probably 5 hours either talking with Tech support or having to go to USP to ship back defective products. Don't waste your money.

    Rated 5 out of 5 by from Works well with Macbook, mostly works with Windows For the folks who have issues driving two monitors with this dock, the issue is likely in the Thunderbolt host controller on your laptop supports an older DisplayPort standard (1.2), which isn't really a fault of this dock. In my experience, the dock works very well with my 2019 15" MacBook Pro. I can drive my 4k and 1080p monitors at the same time, along with ethernet and both USB ports reliably. On the same laptop under Windows (with BootCamp) the story is different -- both monitors work reliably, but to get the USB ports to work, I have to unplug and replug the dock multiple times until it eventually works. Otherwise Windows gives a notification saying one of the USB devices has malfunctioned, without much additional info. For what it's worth, it also works well on my Thinkpad P1 Gen2, also running Windows, so I'm not sure where the Macbook issue really lies.

    Rated 5 out of 5 by from Dual screen does not work Bought this for 1 purpose only, to get dual screens when working from my company laptop. Should have read here before that it does not work as intended. Because it is simply not working. Only 1 screen works, the other one goes into power save mode. So if a product does not work for the 1 purpose I bought it for it gets 1 star. Didn't check with the network or USB yet as I have no use for them.

    Rated 5 out of 5 by from USB Ports Do Not Work The USB ports are 2.0 and 3.0. Neither of these USB ports seem to support any of the keyboard and mouse USB sticks that I use. Very frustrating that they can't just provide a regular USB port that works for keyboard and mouse. Do not buy this.

    Rated 5 out of 5 by from Buyer Beware Does not support dual monitors on my 2020 MacBook Pro (M1 chip), that was the whole purpose of my purchase. I hold the site accountable, you should rework your language to reflect the actual capabilities of your products. I'll certainly avoid this company for the rest of my life.

    Rated 5 out of 5 by from Works well and but has been glitchy after 1 year It works as advertised - no setup, plug in and get started. i use it for two 4k monitors to extend my laptop, also have a USB Webcam and Jabra speaker. It works great, but off late, it has started to get very warm, the monitors start to get wobbly and needs an unplug and plug back to make it work.
