HP Thunderbolt Dock G2 (120W)

The HP Thunderbolt Dock 120W G2 (2UK37AA) is a compact and versatile docking station designed to enhance productivity for professionals. With a single Thunderbolt™ 3 (USB-C™) connection, it supports dual 4K displays, multiple USB peripherals, and provides power delivery to your laptop. Its sleek design ensures a clutter-free workspace, while the array of ports—including DisplayPort, USB-C, USB-A, VGA, and Ethernet—accommodate various devices and setups. Ideal for HP laptops and compatible with other USB-C™/Thunderbolt™ devices, this dock offers seamless connectivity and efficient power management

This is my favorite kind of thunderbolt hub, in that it has a USB fallback mode. I didn't even realize that until I forgot my laptop at work today and plugged my iPad in.A USB-C hub is the best. You plug it into your laptop, and Thunderbolt or not, it will accept the DisplayPort connection and also work as a normal USB hub for all plugged-in devices. This likely means that even the iPhone 15 will get keyboard/mouse monitor support if you plug this thing into one.Oh and all this while it's charging your laptop. I like it.

Everything worked flawlessly out of the box - plug-n-play and go.Love the small footprint, but that is somewhat negated by cable ingress/egress. Computer power on/off on top of dock is great feature. Would like an HDMI port (or 2). Ample USB A and C ports.Bought the speaker separately - I had low expectations and really just wanted it as a 'speaker'. Same as the dock - flawless out of the box, easy install - plug-n-play and go. Power and speaker controls on top are great - touch sensitive and a little vibration. Sound quality is solid. It is an exceptional conference call speaker phone - was not expecting that. Great microphone and speaker with echo cancelling - this was a surprise and has me using hands free speaker phone more than ever.Completely satisfied and highly recommend. Pricey, but worth it.Note - I have a complete HP setup - laptop, monitor, printer, and the Thunderbolt Dock.

Works perfectly, however the power button is at the top and when you are trying to plug into different ports, you tend to accidently push the power button. It is also pricey compare to others. Other than this, overall a great product.

This is NOT a new HP product! When received, scratches were observed on the device itself (see image). We decided to try it anyway, but the unit immediately shut down the computer it was connected to, and made a very loud noise until the computer was disconnected. Now assessing potential damage to the computer. HIGHLY disappointed. DO NOT RECOMMEND!!! BUYER BEWARE!!!

Worked good for 7 months then just stopped being recognized by any devices. I thought it was my laptop but we tried it on several in my office and it’s the docking station.

Works as a charm. Wanted to find something that can work with Thunderbolt type-c port as well as can downgrade to work with regular usb type-c 3.1. This dock supports both options and works perfectly with HP EliteBook 840 G5 (Thunderbolt) and Lenovo ThinkPad E490 (usb type-c 3.1). Besides, tried to use it with Samsung DeX via Galaxy S8, but for now the phone does not detect connected monitor which may be fixed with connecting the monitor to some other port (still need to try) as such trick helped on another type-c mini dock.

Pros:Works over ThunderBolt3 with HP Spectre 15" & MacBook Pro 2016+. Dual display worked with U3011 2K@60Hz DP-DP, LG 27GL850-B 2K USBC-DP, and VGA, using left-sided DisplayPort is plugged in, and rear-right-side USBC port.Cons:- Buggy: HP's dock firmware upgrade causes BSOD on Win10 1909. HP Support is unreachable.- Buggy: I tried 7 cables compatible on the CalDigit TS3+, 5 failed on the G2; full DP cable in left slot + right USBC worked. TB3 port failed to daisy-chain to the TS3+ TB3 dock and fails with most cables too.- Bad design: Top panel (1/6th of the unit!) is a power button that cannot be disabled, you will shut down often, accidentally. The dock has its own fan and low CPU activity activates the laptop fan even when not charging.- Bad on MacOS: TS3+ @ 85W works immediately, G2 @ 100W only has no ethernet, no audio, no dual-display on Catalina; yet both work in Bootcamp Win 10 1809 on MBP 2016+.- Vendor lockin: TS3+ is more reliable and versatile in all but one case: HP 15" charges on HP G2, but HP's Windows Notifications ask for power cable with TS3+ under moderate CPU load.Conclusion:For an HP 15", or if for $50 you're willing to live with bugs, buy the G2.For anything else get a CalDigit TS3+ (refurbished, on holidays for 15% less).
