Docking Station for MacBook Pro - Review

As a MacBook user, I know that having enough ports is a continuous struggle. That is why I was excited to try out the MOKiN Docking Station for MacBook Pro/Air, a portable 8-in-2 USB-C hub that promises to expand my work opportunities and provide stable performance. After a few weeks of testing, I am impressed with its features and performance.

First, let me start by saying that setting up the MOKiN Docking Station was a breeze. I didn't need any drivers or software – I simply plugged it into my MacBook's USB-C port. However, there is one crucial note: this dock only supports MacBook Pro/Air models with two Thunderbolt 3 ports on one side – it does not support the M1 or M2 chip MacBook Pro/Air.

Once I had the dock set up, I was excited to test out all the ports. The MOKiN Docking Station features two HDMI ports, both capable of supporting 4K Ultra HD @ 60Hz or Full HD 1080p @ 60Hz video with 3D effects, which is perfect for streaming movies or playing video games. However, it's important to note that the two HDMI ports can be used simultaneously but with only one 4K monitor. Nonetheless, the video quality was excellent, without any lag or stuttering.

One of the biggest selling points of this docking station is its ability to convert my MacBook's USB-C port into multiple ports, including three USB 3.0 ports with 900mA output. This feature was a game-changer for me as I could connect my smartphone, tablet, and hard drives for effortless data transfer with the USB-C port. I was impressed with the data transfer speed, which was lightning-fast at 5Gbps and 480Mbps transfer speed accordingly.

The MOKiN Docking Station also features an SD and TF card reader, which I appreciate as a photographer. The transfer speed was excellent, at up to 104mb/s, depending on the card's quality. Plus, both SD and TF cards can be used simultaneously, which is convenient for me.

Another fascinating feature of the MOKiN Docking Station is its ability to charge other devices with USB-C ports, such as my iPhone or iPad, via its 100W PD Thunderbolt 3 port. However, data transfer is not supported with this port. The charging speed was impressive and efficient, saving me time and hassle.

In terms of design, the MOKiN Docking Station has a sleek and compact design, making it easy to carry around. I can easily throw it into my bag and take it with me wherever I go. The aluminum finish also gives it a premium feel and matches my MacBook's aesthetics.

The MOKiN Docking Station has mostly positive reviews on Amazon, with a 4.3 out of 5-star rating and over 2600 reviews. Some users have reported issues with the HDMI ports not working on their MacBook Pro or Air models, but I did not experience this issue during my testing.

In conclusion, the MOKiN Docking Station for MacBook Pro/Air is a fantastic accessory for MacBook users who need to expand their port options. It's easy to set up, efficient, and reliable. Its dual HDMI ports, three USB 3.0 ports, SD and TF card reader, and 100W PD Thunderbolt 3 port make it a versatile accessory for anyone who uses their MacBook for work or play. However, it's essential to note that it only supports specific MacBook models, so make sure to check your MacBook's compatibility before purchasing. Overall, I highly recommend the MOKiN Docking Station for MacBook Pro/Air.
