The Satechi Thunderbolt 4 Multimedia Pro Dock lets you turn your average laptop workstation into a Thunderbolt-powered USB nexus.
Right off the bat, one of my favorite things about the Pro Dock is its appearance.
The plating is also smooth to the touch and covers both the top and bottom of the hub.
On the backside is where most of the action happens.
Whatever connections your setup cant supply, this Satechi 16-in-1 will definitely help.
One thing thats a little irritating though is the lack of USB-C Power Delivery connections.
Wait, doesnt this thing work with Apple hardware, too?
Indeed it does, but theres a bit of a caveat.
Fortunately though, if youre using an 8K monitor, the Satechis single-output capabilities tops out at 8K/30Hz.
As far as wins, the Pro Dock offers a pretty unique alternative for external storage.
Say goodbye to that flimsy card reader youre always losing!
Not to mention the wired connection will free up a big block of bandwidth for your home Wi-Fi.
The Satechi Thunderbolt 4 Multimedia Pro Dock lets you turn your average laptop workstation into a Thunderbolt-powered USB nexus. Equipped with everything from USB and an auxiliary jack, to SD and microSD card slots, Satechi makes it easy to incorporate a handful of additional devices into your day-to-day computer time.
But now Ill move on to the big miss.
This is a Thunderbolt 4 (TB4) hub, right?
Should You Buy the Satechi Thunderbolt 4 Multimedia Pro Dock?

Too much money with too little power.
Too many USB-A ports and too few TB4 and USB-C connections.
You get the idea.
