Works as described, and exactly as I was hoping. Would Recommend.

I have a gaming notebook (an Asus Fx505dt) with a single HDMI port, after using my gaming notebook plugged into a single monitor for about a year I decided it would be cool to have a second monitor to allow multi-tasking and other activities. The first product I purchased did not work in the way I wanted at all, so I returned it. Trying again I ordered another product, once again no luck this product was defective and didn't work at all had to return that too.I was ready to return the monitor I bought and just call it quits on the second monitor entirely. Luckily for me, a family friend recommended I look into a docking station and I found this one rather quickly. Despite the price being a bit high I decided to order it and gave it a shot.Can I say this product works great, unboxing was quick and satisfying, and plugging in is simple (make you sure to plug into a USB 3.0 port for better video quality). Going to the website you can easily find and install the drivers, and it's a rather easy setup process. After restarting, just like that your second monitor will begin working. This product also has USB ports, audio jacks, and many other features as described. All of which work great.The only downside to this product is that you cannot charge it directly from the docking station which for the price point may be a disappointment, but being able to organize all of my cords to this docking station made it a lot easier and simpler to unplug my charger for use somewhere else. Also, 144hz is not achievable (from what I've been able to figure out) despite it being able to handle 4k at 60hz, but that hasn't been too big of a problem for me.Overall this product fits my needs for a second monitor perfectly, as well as making cord management a lot better as well. I would recommend it if you are interested in a second monitor for your laptop.

Universal doesn't mean all Asus laptops - glorified peripheral connector for way too much money.

Wish I would've read the reviews on this thing before I bought it. So glad I ordered from Amazon Prime instead of Asus directly. Had I ordered from Asus, I would've been charged a restocking fee on this.Others have already pointed out this this isn't a true docking station.In order to use this thing, I STILL need two more cables.One cable for power: I can't even plug my computer into this thing to charge it. While the USB ports support charging peripherals and other electronics, none of them support charging the actual computer. I'd have to get a USB C to Micro-B cable for power.Once cable for everything else: My ASUS Zenbook has two USB C ports. So, in order to connect to my monitor and other peripherals, I have to get a USB 3.0 Male to USB C Male cable or a USB 3.0 to USB 3.0 male cable and use the peripheral dongle that came with my machine to connect to the docking station.Even after I get it all set up, it won't make my life any easier than my original setup, which was the power adapter and peripheral dongle that came with my laptop for no extra cost.Love ASUS , but they really missed the mark on this one.
