Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great dock for the priceThis dock meets the need if only have a need for one monitor. In my application, the mini dock works perfectly for reducing the cord clutter on the desktop and for easily making the tranisition when working from home and working from the office. I was surprised to see a VGA port, but thankfully the HDMI port is there to meet my need.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Awesome Gizmo!This port makes traveling to and from work with my laptop super easy. One plug connects external monitor, speakers, printer and maintains power. Super easy, logically designed, affordable price, makes life easy. What more do you need?

Rated 5 out of 5 by from full feature next gen USB-C dockIMO, there are two main angles for desiring this dock:1. simple powered docking at home/work/mobile- your external display monitor, wireless mouse, wired network, backup storage are ready to go with one USB-C connection to your laptop. I normally leave this at home except when taking longer road trips.2. in general adding back the 'missing' ports for your laptop - I bought the Lenovo x12 detachable and my initial hesitation was only having 2 USB-C ports. But that is not an issue at all as long as you have a dock like this. I also have a USB-C to USB 3 cable for on the go use. P.S. the Lenovo x12 is awesome.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Cannot Use VGA and HDMI Port Simultaneously.I got this to hook up 2 monitors to my laptop at the suggestion of a Lenovo sales rep. It has both a VGA and an HDMI port, so that would work, in theory. However, the HDMI and VGA ports are so close together that you cannot plug an HDMI and a VGA cable simultaneously. I've had two Lenovo docking products; both have been terrible.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Good decide, but one flawIt does what I needed it to do. I needed a cleaner way to connect my laptop to a dell external monitor and a 16” portable screen. Connections work- but the connector to the laptop isn’t tight. It’s loose and frequently becomes disconnected- even just for a second, but super annoying. Wish it was just a more stable connection.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Very nice for mounting workstationsVery useful for use with the ThinkPads or any other device with USB-c. It makes it effortless to set up my workstation. I can also use it with the Chromebook duet to plug the keyboard, mouse, and use it in a big monitor. It comes with a 65W charger. In my opinion, the only downside is that it must be plugged for use all ports, and this keeps charging my laptop all the time. I don't know if it will damage the battery with time.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Compact and usefulI bought in conjunction with the Lenova Yoga laptop. I have it setup for when I am at home working to easily attach a secondary monitor and external HD. Worked exactly as I had hoped and the bonus it the laptop charges thru the same connection so there is only one cord to attach to achieve all the functions. Seems pricey, but worth it in my opinion. If you were to use it on the go, the unit itself is very slim and compact, but it also uses a power cord with a transformer block in the middle.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Did not work out of the boxDid not work out of the box. The ethernet, power HDMI and USB ports work fine, but not the USB-C video. As is the case with many Lenovo products, the shipped item was not update to the latest firmware, with even with that, I still can't get the video to work. I'm waiting for a replacement device. Other than that if you simply want a small device to consolidate all ports, it may be useful.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Lenovo ThinkPadI've owned quite a few laptops over the years, most of the major brands, and I've generally been pleased with all of them. But, I would say my new Lenovo ThinkPad is tops. The firm, tactile feel of the keyboard is excellent. The slim, lightweight design makes it super portable. With the necessity of doing many online meetings, I intentionally chose a unit capable of using virtual backgrounds and this unit does it very well. This is simply a very well built, no-nonsense, workhorse, that I am 100% satisfied with.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Everything you need in a USB-C DockThe Lenovo USB-C Mini dock is everything I needed for my T14s AMD with Ryzen 7 4750u. Ethernet, extra ports, and power. Importantly: although the power output is only 45W, my T14s only draws ~39W at max load. It's so nice having a single port I need to connect to in order to get all the power and wired internet I need. Ridiculously convenient. It does get a bit warm sometimes, which concerns me a bit about battery longevity, however I do keep my T14s on a cooling pad, which allows for some of the heat from the battery to be dissipated. It is also a good idea to use a custom battery threshold that is comfortable for you (mine is set to cap charging at 85% of full to increase your battery's overall lifespan.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great dock for putting one everywhere you need.Does everything it says on the tin, but also has a 3.5mm audio-out jack which wasn't well advertised. Very pleased - and with this and the later Windows 10 versions the PC remembers all the screen and i/o permutations so once it is set up it returns to that setting whenever the PC is plugged into the same dock. So, keep one at home and one at the office (in better times...) and everything just works. Using one for both places will require you to always reconfigure the monitor layouts if your home/office differ.This dock has a hard-wired USB-C on a short cable. I would have liked a longer built-in cable (twice around?), and because this dock is so light (good if you really do carry it around) I would have liked 'stickier' feet or more mass. This gets dragged around the desk by the weight of the cables that attach.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Needs Power SupplyNice sleek design and overall good product. The only down side is that it needs to be plugged in to it's own power supply. 4/5 stars due to having to carry an extra brick and cable when on the go.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Slim, Portable, UsefulThe dock does exactly what it is meant to do. The added bonus of the product is that is small and slim and fits on a desk where available space is limited. The only caveat that is the one can not use both the HDMI port and the SVGA simultaneously as the ports are too close together. Other then that, the product is great and I now keep the charger that came with my T490 in my bag incase I need to work out of the office.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from It/s fine.It's fine. What I didn't realize before buying is that it outputs power at a lower wattage than the native charger for my laptop (X390, listed as compatible), which makes me nervous for my computer's battery health. It half-works without plugging in to power, for my USB-A second generation, VGA, and 3.5mm headphone outs. Without power, it does not work for my USB-A third generation and I have not tested the USB-C or HDMI out connections.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Lenovo USB-C Mini DockUse Lenovo USB-C Mini Dock to connect to keyboard, monitor and mouse. It drains the battery of my Yoga C940 laptop when it stays connected to the laptop, even when the laptop is shut down. Since it always drains the battery of the laptop, it has to be ejected from the laptop and plugged off from the USB-C port of the laptop. In the long run, I am afraid the USB-C port of the laptop will be damaged due to wear and tear since the USB-C Mini dock has to be plugged in and out whenever I use the laptopWhen the laptop is turned on and Lenovo USB-C Mini Dock is connected to the laptop, it keeps charging the battery of the laptop. This could shorten the battery life time of the laptop.Bought CableCreation extension USB-A to female USB-C with the intention of avoiding plugging the USB-C Mini Dock in and out from the laptop directly, unfortunately the HDMI connection to the monitor worked only once. Am thinking of buying an extension of USB-C to female USB-C with the intention of avoiding plugging in and out the USB-C Mini Dock from the laptop directly, but I am not sure whether the HDMI connection to the monitor will work.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from A useful accessory at a great priceI bought this mini dock to go with the new-to-me ThinkPad T480, and so far it seems to do the job: I have my Ethernet cable and an external USB-connected hard disk plugged into the mini dock instead of directly into the ThinkPad, so I have just one direct connection to the laptop. I did make sure that my wireless trackball also works when the receiver is plugged into the mini dock, but that is not how I will normally use it.At the special pricing of $90, the mini dock and the included power supply (which sells for more than $50 on its own this is a great deal, and now I can keep one power supply on my desk and the other in my laptop bag ready for when I go traveling -- but the mini dock is small enough to take with me if I really needed to.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Works well, but but some shortcomings....While this small dock is useful, it always feels ergonomically odd to use. I use it with my Yoga 14 940, which has all USB C ports on the left. The built in cord from doc to computer is SHORT, and it always feels backward when I use it. The other issue is slow charging of external devices through the USB ports. So don't expect a quick charge for your phone from the computer. Otherwise it works well.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from You get what you pay forThere's a reason this is called a mini-dock. It does have a slick design and its small footprint is great for a cluttered desk like mine. With only 2 USB ports, it really doesn't meet my needs, however, not wanting to spend more (especially after buying a new X1 Carbon), I wanted to keep costs for a dock down. Guess I got what I paid for.

Connections are consistent, audio and visuals great, integrated power, perfect. Worth it. Period.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Lenovo USB-C Mini DockDevice works as expected. It is limited as to connectivity (#ports, but I am using it side-by-side with a non-powered (and much cheaper) standard USB-C expander. Both adapters work together and give me 3840x2160 resolution on the laptop, with the laptop screen at 1920x1080. It all works together, and I do not need to daisy chain the monitors. I use this Mini Dock also as the power supply, it is all good.4 stars, not 5, because of two issues: The monitor (both are the same) connected to the Mini Dock flickers at times, when app switching, etc. The other monitor, connected to the non-powered port expander, does not do this.The second issue is when the laptop is off. The Mini Dock screen keeps powering up, even though no (HDMI) signal is present. Then it goes back to sleep. The monitor connected to the non-powered adapter does not do this. I tried updating the firmware, but it errored out with an error, haven't looked into it further. The adapter is a tad larger than the standard power supply, so it is not as travel friendly, but it is very compact otherwise.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from USB-C mini Dock works but blocked the laptop HDMIThe USB-C mini Dock itself works great. Initially did not work for the internet, but once rebooted laptop, everything works, so thought it was great. Then when adding another monitor to the Laptop HDMI port directly, the laptop does not recognized it any more. Understand the mini dock only allows either the HDMI or VGA, but it should not "stop" the HDMI port on the laptop itself. So believe it is a design fault.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great mini dock for work laptopGreat little dock that I bought for my Thinkpad T480s, has a good number of input ports perfect for my needs (I've connected a keyboard and mouse through 2xUSB, hdmi for external monitor). It does everything that I need it to, the only complaint I have is that the dock to laptop connector cable is very short. Based on the description I was expecting the cable to be pulled out further from inside the dock, but it is literally wrapped on the front side of the dock so it is the length of the dock itself (approximately ~15cm, half a foot). It isn't an issue as I bought an extension cable for it.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Defective product Lenovo refused to replaceHad trouble streaming on Zoom (screen freeze, audio disruption, "unstable" Internet connection) that I had not had before using this product, after I bought a new Lenovo ThinkBook. My secretary's non-Lenovo dock solved the problem and she doesn't need Zoom for her work. I contacted Lenovo for a replacement and they refused because I was more than 30 days after the invoice date (I contacted them on day 33), not the date I actually received the dock, and had tried various configurations to solve the problem without giving up on the meetings I needed to attend by zoom. I was very disappointed by Lenovo's customer service policy and response; they should have been willing to swap out the (I assume) defective product, even after more than 30 days post-receipt. Unless of course it's a design problem, in which case they should just refund my money and I'll go get one that works right.

Pros are I have connected speakers, mouse and keyboard and an external screen and now I can come home from work and just plug the laptop into a charging port and everything works instantly. My only disappointment is that there is a HDMI and VGA port but you can only plug one in at a time because there is not enough room to plug in two. It does say this in the specifications so it's my fault for not noticing You can use the laptop screen as a second screen so it's not all bad but given that there are two ports it would have been nice to be able to plug in two screens.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from NoisyMakes a high pitch noise when plugged into power supply. Must be poor insulation on connectors

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Incredibly helpfulThis is exactly what I needed to expand my usage. It travels well with my peripherals and makes them amazingly easy to use as a group. It also works well at home so I can connect a much larger monitor and backup external drive.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great travel companion.Light works, needs another C port. I like this and it works.well. I just wish it had another C port along with another USB A or two.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Quick hookup of devicesNice to only have 1 plug to connect my computer. Haven't determined why the HDMI cable doesn't seem to work.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Bad delivery, bad systemsThis product came four months late, the compensation for the extraordinary delay was a pittance, and then the compensation was "accidentally" cancelled. I have had to call at least six times and I still haven't been compensated for the delay

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Equipment good.. if you can wait months to get it.The Mini-dock works fine and meets expectations, but the service from Lenovo to receive was less than acceptable. It took months to get this part and every couple of weeks I received notices from Lenovo telling me that they were preparing it for shipping, but never giving me any extimated shipping date. I also started receiving email marketing pieces from Lenovo inviting me to hurry and buy other hardware from them knowing that they too would likely take months to receive.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Works greatThe mini dock is perfect for my purposes. There are enough ports to attach my 4K monitor, peripherals, ethernet and provide power all with a single usb-c connection to the computer.
