They don't require the laptop have DP alt mode on the USB-C connector, which can be a plus, but this means the displays are using DisplayLink which is an abstraction layer built up on USB, and uses the CPU and GPU to render these displays in software. Which if your system is decently powerful and has a dedicated GPU, isn't really a huge issue, but if it has only CPU integrated graphics, DisplayLink performance can be quire terrible under certain conditions, like doing anything that's tasking the GPU with even something as "simple" as YouTube playback, and gaming is out of the question.
They're generally fine for most office uses, but gaming is not going to be a fun experience and if you have no dedicated GPU, even watching videos can lead to the display becoming a stuttering mess.
DisplayLink is useful, but it's not a replacement for a true display connection, like docks that connect over DisplayPort alt mode. But if your laptop doesn't have DP Alt Mode, this is the only way you're going to get a docking station, so it does have some uses.
Probably fine for most users and office use. Just be aware it will require additional drivers to output video to an external monitor, and you will not be able to drive dedicated GPU graphics to an external monitor with this dock if that is something you need.
They are probably cancelling Walmart orders to fulfill those who ordered from HP.
Fine, but they need to fess up to that instead of hiding behind "Unfortunately, it looks like we're unable to deliver order ########### to your address due to location or carrier restrictions, so we had to cancel." 😜
Set it up with my Lenovo 7i. Works great with my 2 monitors. One is an Ultrawide and I was having problems finding a decent priced dock that would allow the UW to use the full resolution when 2 monitors were in use.
ok thanks. I searched but probably missed it. I'm wondering if Walmart orders might get tiered after HP site orders. Just a hunch.
I ordered both from HP and Walmart around the same time. Walmart's order arrived yesterday, HP's order shipped today. This docking station kit is quite hefty/substantial and came in a larger box than expected. It also came with 4 different international plug/cable sets which I imagine each alone would probably costs $10 each. I am not surprised if Targus really charges corporations/governments at least $100 if not the MSRP price around $300.

Did you need to install the Targus software for this? I got mine today and did a quick test on my work laptop and could not get video work and I have no ability to install anything on my work laptop.

Interesting. I have a dell dock for work and I think it also costs around the same normally.

Not sure if can run without the Targus software. If you do need it, you might want to ask if your IT group can install it for you. They can remote in and run the software installation.

My laptop has Thunderbolt 4. I used the included USB C cable and the displays were detected. I had to change positions and resolutions, but it worked without installing the software.
As long as your laptop supports Alternate Displays over USB-C. It should work without their software.
did you use the included cable?

Weird. Another poster on here said you have to use the software. I guess they were wrong
I mentioned earlier I received my Walmart order, realize I don't need it after opening it. If anyone interested PM me I will sell it for $20+tax, otherwise will just return it.
Sent you PM
