Thanks to Community Member pennysave for posting this deal.

Features:
  • Ports:
    • 2x Thunderbolt 4 (15w max)
    • 1x Thunderbolt 4 (PD 3.0 at 96w max, upstream only)
    • 1x HDMI 2.1
    • 3xUSB A 3.1
    • 1x RJ45
    • 1x SD card slot
    • 1x 3.5mm audio jack
  • Includes Thunderbolt 4 cable
  • Supports:
    • Thunderbolt and USB4 function
    • Dual 4K@60Hz displays via two Thunderbolt 4 USB-C ports
      • Note: Verify your laptop's Thunderbolt ports support dual 4K@60Hz output. Ensure your graphics card installed the latest drivers. Confirm your monitors support 4K@60Hz display. Use high-quality Thunderbolt 4 or USB4 cables for connection (not included). Avoid connect HDMI port firstly to prevent resolution downgrade due to bandwidth limitations.
    • Dynamic PD profile up to 96W to charge devices.
      • Note: Check the laptop manufacturer's power supply specifications before use. Ports may not function properly if laptop power requirements exceed 96W, as the docking station will activate overload protection feature and cause disconnection.
    • HDMI 2.1 output supports up to 8K30Hz
    • Ethernet RJ45 port supports up to 2.5Gbps (approximately 300 Megabytes per sec).
      • Note: Thunderbolt bandwidth is shared across devices, so display resolution and LAN speed may decrease with multiple high-bandwidth connections. When fully loaded, the docking station may reach 122°F/50°C, which is normal for such products.
  • Travel-friendly design slips easily into a laptop bag or carry-on.
  • Compatible with Laptops running Windows 10 OS or later which have a Thunderbolt 4 port, and non-M1/M2 chip MacBooks running macOS 11 (Big Sur) or later. Backwards compatible for Thunderbolt 3 laptops work with limited functionality (e.g. not support dual display). Not compatible with Linux or Chrome OS laptops, and M1/M2 chip MacBooks running maxOS 10.16 or earlier.

Is this a Thunderbolt 4 dock or a USB4 dock? A TB4 cable is not the same as a USB4, which has a lower tolerance for performance. They're not interchangeable. If it's TB4, it's a great price. If not, prepare to be disappointed. Considering this is coming from Amazon and not some fly-by-night Chinese firm, you'd think their lawyers would have a say in this.

Since Amazon doesn't really make their own, does anyone know who actually makes this?

all Amazon Basics docks i've used in the past have been trash
even going back to their USB 3.0 ones

randomly needs to be reset, ports going bad / not recognized etc.

just garbage products and horrendous support. good luck trying to get a support agent to even know how to process a RMA. they will put you in circles bouncing you around and then claim you are beyond the return period.

just get a quality dock. it's something you should only have to buy once and use for many years

Definitely TB4, and follows the usual Amazon Basic process of them partnering with a brand to make a generic version ("you'll get 1/4 the margin but 10x the sales"). Two months ago these were $130 which was still a bargain relative to the big brands.

Mine worked great for a month and then after a power outage it would only charge but not transmit monitor/keyboard/mouse data, meaning the TB handshake was probably failing. Got my $130 refund and reordered at $70...will have to see whether the first was a fluke; hard to imagine Amazon slapping their brand on junk...

It's a dock, so people are likely hooking up a keyboard and wireless mouse dongle at a minimum, and the third lets you plug in a flash drive.

Why are people worried about ordering this, trying it out and returning if it doesn't work out? Has amazon started banning accounts for returns or something?
