I should add that I have only ever used it for MacOS and my iPad Air. But it has worked without an issue for me though it does get warm. I got a specifically a thunderbolt rated cable for use with it.

Dual 4k at 60Hz is not bad for this price... usually it's 30Hz and you can tell! I am in

Not sold by Amazon, but I've picked up two of the LD5400T's from this listing and love them: https://www.amazon.com/Kensington...B07GY2R9BR

These are TB3, but have 2x TB3 outputs and 1x Displayport, meaning you can connect upto three monitors. This isn't common with docs, let alone one for <$50.

This is a much bigger dock physically, though.

Bought it last time at $55 and running 2 2k monitors and MacBook Pro screen in extended mode. Love connecting only 1 cable for everything. The sound output stopped working once or twice but rebooting fixed it.

I had a hard time with Lenovo dock.. on Intel Mac had to do one DisplayPort on dock and 1 usbc on MacBook… then on M1 Pro, same thing but hdmi on MacBook


Sounds like this solves that issue.. 1 thunderbolt to Mac and both displayports work on the dock no need to plug anything else dongle or hdmi on MacBook to get extended mode!?!? Great if true and I might try it

What's the difference between old version and new version?

This is the same one I bought. Forgot to mention my MacBook Pro is M2 Pro - pretty sure non pros can't do 2 displays + internal. The dock connects to my MacBook, then each 2k display connects to the dock with DP. Power, USB and sound all go thru the dock as well.

Depends on your CPU.

Intel - Extend and Mirroring
M1-M4 - Mirroring Only (Unless lid is closed or Mac mini/Pro)
M1-M4 Pro/Max - Extend and Mirroring

iPad Pro only supports one external display currently.

Base M3 will only output to one external if the lid is opened but that one external monitor CAN extend.

To use with 2 external monitors extended, yes lid will need to be closed. I use an M3 Air with a Thunderbolt dock (different one).

Is this a regular price for this? I am not in need of this ATM as my MacBook Pro is very old, but wondering if it would be useful in the future when I upgrade my MBP. But I haven't kept up with if TB3 is a thing or is fading away in favor of USB-C
