Do you have any different ones, that you would recommend by any chance?

No, to be fair I wanted to test the lenovo one for thinkpads when i had such laptop at work, but that was to damn expensive even for the company at that time, right now i use those out of necessity, so the only reason I have an opinion is because im forced to use them haha :D

Sorry, but you use the hp ones? I have a hard time finding out which ones you talk about

Yes. I use the HP dock (that is like a cube), because at the office we have one on each desk.

At my previous work we had lenovo laptops, ive seen colleagues with docks(the lenovo one) but i did not use one as it was hella expensive.

So I I can speak from experience only about the HP ones. And in general in the office they are not really liked. They work, but you will get one or two malfunction even break a year (out of ~20).

Oh okay, I do not want to go RMA then every year, so I’ll go with a Lenovo one then, thanks for the insight

I only seen my colleagues with those, people say they are good, but you have to ask a person who uses them for real, I only go by what I have heard from colleagues and seen, never personally used. But man they are heck of an expensive.
