Brydge Stone II USB Hub Docking Station | Compatible with MacOS & Windows | Single 4K Display. HDMI Output. USB-C Speeds. 7 Ports | (Space Grey), BRYSTONE2

I use a Brydge with my Mac air and it worked a treat. When work changed from Citrix to office 365 it was time to get a big monitor cut the number of screens and de clutter so I could use a windows laptop. It would not recognise the laptop. Long story short you need 60watt PD to power the hub then an equally heavy duty USBC to USBC to laptop. Still it would not connect, turns out is is a windows issue the USBC port should if an error rebuild on restart. Took an IT technician to sort it. So if your windows doesn’t work with it then it is not the hub but your £1800 windows laptop. All working now and does a great job allowing me finally to close the windows laptop and work with a bit less constant heat in the office…of course also work with Mac but that is already hooked in using previous set up.

Unfortunately the USB hub functionality lasted less than 24 hours before it failed. The HDMI and network functionality continued to work but overnight the ability to recognise USB devices failed. Tried multiple devices and usb-c hosts all with the same result.

The original Stone is a great product. This newer, more expensive version is a downgrade. No Thunderbolt 3? Fewer ports? What is the point of this exactly? You can get the the original Stone second hand easily enough for a third of the price of this. So do that instead.

Was a bit annoyed with it at first because it was not working and I couldnt figure out why. It turns out that there is a USB-C port that connects with the computer (input) and another that would connect to devices. I plugged the computer into the output USB-C and it would not generate a signal on the external monitor i was trying to connect and i could not figure out why. After some time troubleshooting i figured it out but wasnt happy with the waste of time.

Llego en buen estado, cerrado pero me ha costado trabajo encontrar el cargador de este mismo, deberían ofrecer tmb el cargador.

Très bon dock pour un MacBook Air. Permet une utilisation à la fois nomade et fixe sur bureau. Tous les ports fonctionnent sans problème et rapidement.

This dock really simplified my current setup. Something I didn't expect to dislike was the 30 Hertz for the HDMI port. I ended up using my second USB-C port on my MacBook Pro for the HDMI output to my 4K monitor. The 30 fps was disorienting. BUT, besides that, I love it. It connects my Webcam, Legato HD60 S+ capture card, and USB switch for things like my microphone. It's small, out of the way, and I love that there is only one USB-C cord that I usually attach to my MacBook Pro.If you're not picky about frame rate, this is perfect. If you are, upgrade to one of the more expensive models. I plan on using this dock for another year before trying out another dock of theirs.

I really like this docking station to use in my home office and it is small and light enough to travel with it.
