[@CarAudioInc]

love your honesty, hopefully they'll take your feedback

[@DBTechYT]

I hope so

[@checkmatenate]

Best review of the 032 imo because of the display details

[@DBTechYT]

I think one of the difficult things about reviewing a lot of these devices is that manufacturers often don't do a great job of documenting what version of HDMI or DP they're using, so the creators have to do a lot more work to find the information for themselves.

[@QuinlinNorth]

I’m trying to run this hub far away from my computer, but I can’t find any specs anywhere that show the Gbps rating for the USB C that comes with it. I need to know so I can get a longer one. Do you have any idea what it is?

[@DanZimmerli]

Based on this I would probably opt for something from Plugable instead.

[@Lunolux]

thanks for the video and the honesty

[@qalamilahirobbi6197]

please review hdd docking station usb connection for SBC nas..

[@CiroMorra]

The Dell docking station from work has the same behaviour: only one monitor has 4k resolution, the other one just plain old 1080p. :|
It is a bit annoying but it seems not to be brand specific behaviour.
Could the graphical capability of the connected workstation be a limiting factor?

[@DBTechYT]

The device supports DP 1.2 and DP 1.4, so there's no reason that *I* can think of that it would be limited. So now I just use it as an overpriced USB hub and card reader.

[@ronm6585]

Thanks for sharing.

[@DBTechYT]

Thanks for watching!

[@Makumbi]

Expensive, massive and ugly hub. The side you use as front is remarkably ugly.

[@DBTechYT]

I agree that it's expensive. I don't mind the look of it, though.

[@Makumbi]

@DBTechYT I have one from HP. It's alot bigger and less accessible. But the two display ports are great and there are more USB 3.2 ports. I think there is only one USB type c port. My hub allows me to never remove my power brick from my laptop bag. It allows me to immediately have everything connected by plugging in just one cable.

[@DanZimmerli]

Curious if it supports 2 monitors off an Apple Silicon Mac

[@DBTechYT]

This supports 2 monitors, but only 1 of them at 4k. It was designed like this for some reason.

[@Makumbi]

That looks like a sager from xotic pc.

[@jonathandoe7490]

first

[@rodneycrosslin4405]

Buddy Christ 🤣

[@DBTechYT]

Glad someone noticed
