Dell laptop owners are the whole audience for the WD25TB4 Thunderbolt Dock, which supports dual 4K displays, fast USB-C charging, and a modular upgrade system. Laptop Mag, reviewing the previous-generation WD22TB4, praised that dock's 'unrivaled power delivery' and 'excellent performance,' and Mini PC Reviewer highlighted its 'sturdy design' and 'seamless integration.' Compatibility is restricted to Dell devices, and reviewers noted limited USB-A ports plus occasional coil whine. Professionals who want more connectivity out of a Dell machine will benefit; anyone on another brand or needing lots of legacy ports should look elsewhere.

Strengths
  • Supports dual 4K displays at 60Hz for enhanced multitasking and productivity
  • Fast USB-C charging with SuperBoost technology reduces downtime
  • Modular design allows easy upgrades with swappable modules for future technology
Watch-outs
  • Full 130W charging and Dell-specific features need a Dell laptop; other Thunderbolt 4 hosts are capped at 96W
  • Only two USB-A ports available, which may be insufficient for some users
  • Some users reported coil whine noise under specific conditions

UGREEN Revodok Max
8 sources$240as of Aug 1

PCWorld's Mark Hachman found the UGREEN Revodok Max 213 a strong Thunderbolt 4 dock, with premium build quality and a diverse port selection. Tom's Guide disagreed on value, calling it 'overpriced' and suggesting similar functionality is available elsewhere. Reviewers praised the sturdiness and 40Gbps throughput while noting underperformance in benchmarks and questioning what $299.99 buys. It fits buyers who rank build quality and port variety above cost-efficiency.

Strengths
  • Solidly built metal monolith with aggressive port combination
  • Provides 40Gbps Thunderbolt 4 performance
  • Supports dual 4K displays simultaneously
Watch-outs
  • Overpriced at $299.99 MSRP
  • Performance was below expectations in certain tests
  • Only one dedicated display port available

How they stack up

Dell WD25TB4 Thunderbolt Dock

The Dell WD25TB4 excels in dual 4K display support and SuperBoost charging but is limited to Dell devices, unlike the CalDigit TS4 which supports any Thunderbolt laptop. While it offers a modular design that the Anker 563 lacks, it only provides two USB-A ports compared to the Anker's more extensive port selection. The UGREEN Revodok Max surpasses it in Thunderbolt 4 performance and build quality, though the Dell dock offers better integration with Dell laptops and more reliable power delivery.

UGREEN Revodok Max

The UGREEN Revodok Max offers 40Gbps Thunderbolt 4 performance and a sturdy build quality that surpasses the Anker 563, but it's overpriced at $299.99 compared to the more affordable Anker models. Unlike the CalDigit TS4, it lacks HDMI output and has fewer ports, though it provides better vertical stand capability. Compared to the Dell WD25TB4, it offers more universal compatibility and better Thunderbolt 4 performance, but lacks the modular design and Dell-specific integration.
