The short answer

HyperDrive 12 USB-C Dock comes out ahead by a narrow margin (4.3 vs 4.0). The gap is mostly about Windows/ChromeOS users needing triple displays — read the strengths below before deciding.

Twelve ports for the money is the HyperDrive 12-Port USB-C Dock's argument, dual HDMI 2.0 and DisplayPort 1.4 outputs included, plus 10Gbps USB ports and 100W power delivery passthrough. It runs driver-free and supports triple displays on Windows and ChromeOS. Reviewers also noted there is no power adapter in the box and macOS display support is limited. Its 10Gbps host connection creates bandwidth bottlenecks when several displays run at once, so this suits Windows and ChromeOS users more than Mac users who want three screens.

Strengths
  • Supports triple extended display on Windows and ChromeOS via MST without requiring drivers
  • 10Gbps USB-C and USB-A ports enable fast external drive transfers
  • Compact and lightweight design at just 480 grams with aluminum-look chassis
Watch-outs
  • Power adapter not included, required separately for PD charging
  • Triple display not supported on macOS due to lack of MST support
  • Two USB-A 2.0 ports limit transfer speeds to 480Mbps
UGREEN Revodok Max
Ranked #7 in Best Docking Stations
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

HyperDrive 12 USB-C Dock

The HyperDrive 12 provides driver-free triple display support on Windows and ChromeOS, unlike the Dell D6000 which requires DisplayLink drivers. It's more compact than the CalDigit TS4 and offers 10Gbps USB speeds, but lacks Thunderbolt support and has limited macOS compatibility. Compared to the Anker 555, it's less expensive but doesn't support 4K60Hz HDMI output.

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.
