Twelve ports for the money is the HyperDrive 12-Port USB-C Dock's argument, dual HDMI 2.0 and DisplayPort 1.4 outputs included, plus 10Gbps USB ports and 100W power delivery passthrough. It runs driver-free and supports triple displays on Windows and ChromeOS. Reviewers also noted there is no power adapter in the box and macOS display support is limited. Its 10Gbps host connection creates bandwidth bottlenecks when several displays run at once, so this suits Windows and ChromeOS users more than Mac users who want three screens.

Strengths
  • — Supports triple extended display on Windows and ChromeOS via MST without requiring drivers, per docking-stations.info
  • — 10Gbps USB-C and USB-A ports enable fast external drive transfers
  • — Compact and lightweight design at just 480 grams with aluminum-look chassis
Watch-outs
  • — Power adapter not included, required separately for PD charging, as docking-stations.info notes
  • — Triple display not supported on macOS due to lack of MST support
  • — Two USB-A 2.0 ports limit transfer speeds to 480Mbps, according to docking-stations.info

Triple-display support is the UGREEN Revodok Pro 13-in-1's headline: 4K at 60Hz on two ports and 8K at 30Hz on a third, at a price well under premium Thunderbolt docks. PCWorld's Mark Hachman praised its 'excellent performance' and 'great value for the money,' while XDA's Brady Snyder called it a 'good mix of price and performance.' Reviewers flagged the short built-in cable and the requirement for a separate power supply. It works best with modern laptops and Apple Silicon Macs, and compatibility with older Intel Core systems is uncertain. Power users running multiple displays are the fit, with those requirements attached.

Strengths
  • — Excellent triple-display support with 4K at 60Hz on two ports and 8K at 30Hz on one port
  • — Optimized build with multiple connectivity options including HDMI, DisplayPort, USB-A, USB-C, Ethernet, and SD/TF slots
  • — Works well with non-Thunderbolt laptops and Apple Silicon Macs
Watch-outs
  • — Built-in USB-C cable is short and requires separate power supply
  • — Not fully compatible with older 11th-gen Intel Core laptops
  • — Included cables aren't long enough for some setups

How they stack up

HyperDrive 12 USB-C Dock

The HyperDrive 12 provides driver-free triple display support on Windows and ChromeOS, unlike the Dell D6000 which requires DisplayLink drivers. It's more compact than the CalDigit TS4 and offers 10Gbps USB speeds, but lacks Thunderbolt support and has limited macOS compatibility. Compared to the Anker 555, it's less expensive but doesn't support 4K60Hz HDMI output.

UGREEN Revodok Pro USB-C Dock

The UGREEN Revodok Pro USB-C Dock drives three displays, two at 4K 60Hz and one at 8K 30Hz, and connects over USB-C, where the CalDigit TS4 Thunderbolt 4 is a Thunderbolt 4 dock supporting two 6K displays. Its 2.5 Gbps Ethernet compares with Gigabit on the Dell D6000 Universal Dock, which also outputs to three displays but needs DisplayLink drivers. Its built-in USB-C cable is short and it requires a separate power supply.
