NB. With a MacBook, it is not possible to connect two screens with this docking station. Contrary to the coolblue text, this docking station has no display link. The HP USB-C/A Universal Dock G2 - Docking station does. Unfortunately, coolblue does not sell these.

I already knew the brand and product by using the G2 variant and very satisfied with ... Very handy for charging USB-C devices and not an ugly, conspicuous bake (somewhat similar to an Apple TV in terms of size). Thanks to the DisplayLink technology, you can use it on any device (Linux, Mac, Windows) (download the drivers at https://www.synaptics.com/products/displaylink-graphics/downloads). The device makes no noise and charges the laptop quite quickly. A USB-A (laptop) / USB-C adapter (dock) would be useful. In this way you can also connect older non-USB-C devices (charging is not possible, but you can use all connected devices). I had such an adapter for a BlueBuilt USB hub, but this piece cannot be purchased separately from Coolblue. That would be handy... But works fine!! Completely satisfied!
