Microsoft Surface Dock 2 - Dual 4K HDMI Ports, Gigabit Ethernet, USB-C Hub for Surface Pro/Laptop (Work from Home & Office Setup)

I have a Surface Laptop 4 that I wanted to dock into a more desktop PC like setup with a mouse, keyboard, and external monitor, but I didn't want a bunch of cables hanging out of the laptop and that I would have to yank when I wanted to take the laptop on the go. I initially thought of getting a USB C hub with charging support and lots of USBs and HDMI etc, because the Surface does support charging and display over USB C, but I decided to splurge and get the official Microsoft Surface Dock 2 instead, as I love the magnetic Surface connector. Now I can plug everything and the kitchen sink into my laptop with just one cable.So far the only things I have plugged into the dock are the receiver for my mouse, the 3.5mm audio cable going to a Bluetooth speaker that doubles as my PC speaker, and a cable in one of the front USB C ports to charge my phone and other devices at my desk. I do not yet have my external monitor (letting my bank account recover from buying this dock haha). I plan on getting a ~24" 1440p display, I may just go with one that has native USB C display support, or HDMI with an adapter cable, however some people have reported having touble doing this unless they purchased an expensive Microsoft HDMI to USB C adapter, so I will research a bit more. I will also update this review if I have trouble connecting an external display. The quality as with most official Microsoft products is really good. The dock is a hefty black box, and it feels really solid. The entire bottom is covered in a grippy rubber, so it will definitely stay put on your desk and won't flop around or get pulled off the desk top by a ton of cables being plugged in or anything. All the ports feel high quality too, the USB C ports all have a good firm click when plugging in accessories. The AC adapter brick is amusingly a bit larger than the dock itself, but the max power output of this thing is almost 200w so that's understandable. All the cables used to connect the dock are really sturdy feeling and chunky, but they are not stiff. They are still flexible enough to route them however you need for your setup. Overall, if you can drop the cash for the convenience and you have a compatible Surface PC I would highly recommend this dock! I mostly just use mine for home use, and hobby content creation like digital drawing and dabbling with music production software etc, but this would also be a great office or work-from-home companion as well.
