NewQ Launches its 16-in-1 USB-C Docking Station with Triple 4K Monitor Support

[btarunr]

NewQ, an innovative manufacturer of quality and affordable electronic accessories and consumer technology products, has today announced the launch of its new 16-in-1 USB-C Docking Station. Providing users with 150 W power delivery, 16 commonly used ports to meet most needs, super-fast file transfer and support for triple 4K monitors in both Windows, MAC OS and Steam OS. Whether for home, business or even gaming, this is an ultra-capable and portable device which can hugely improve productivity. The NewQ DisplayLink 16-in-1 USB-C Docking Station is currently on offer for RRP $199.99 (Now on offer at just $129.99 - 35 percent discount) on Amazon US.

Using the DisplayLink technology, the docking station can extend up to three 4K@60 Hz monitors quickly and easily. Of particular interest to Mac Users, this docking station can overcome the traditional limitations of Apple's M1 and M2 chips, which can save a huge amount of money compared to upgrading the laptop. Some docking stations can lift the restrictions of an extended display by using proprietary display drivers. Two types of this technology are both DisplayLink and InstantView, which can both achieve this by converting USB signals into display signals. However, a clear advantage of DisplayLink is that it can expand two monitors at 4K 60 Hz resolutions, whereas InstantMotion can only achieve one at 4K 30 Hz, and one at 1080p 60 Hz. In everyday use, a 4K resolution with a 60 Hz refresh rate will be noticeably smoother and clearer than a 30 Hz one such as when viewing a hi-res video. Likewise a 4K resolution provides far more definition than a 1080p one. It can also greatly improve productivity when using a larger monitor as you view more windows simultaneously.



The NewQ Universal USB C Docking Station simplifies a working area as it is able to meet most expansion needs alone. Equipped with 2x HDMI, 1x DP, 1x USB-C 3.0, 2x USB-A 3.0, 2x USB-A 2.0, 1x Gigabit Ethernet, 1x SD card slot, 1x TF slot, 2x 3.5 mm audio, 1x USB-C PD Out and 1x USB-A PD out, this 150 W docking station can cope with almost any connectivity requirement that a user may need for their computer.

Other than the docking station's ability to extend a desktop with multiple monitors, the device also provides ultra-fast file transfer speeds. By using its USB-C/Thunderbolt 4 port, a user is able to transfer large files in a matter of seconds. The station supports up to 10 Gbps data transfer speed and so there will no longer be a long waiting time to transfer files.

With safety features built-in, the docking station has an excellent cooling performance to ensure it remains stable and reliable. With its aluminium alloy shell, ample space within its case, and a high-efficiency chip. The NewQ 16-in-1 docking station provides unparalleled heat dissipation to give the user peace of mind.

To complete its versatility, the NewQ 16-in-1 docking station can provide up to 96 W to a laptop, (which can satisfy most laptops on the market). It can also charge a smartphone with its 18 W PD-out. Audio is also taken care of with dual 3.5 mm ports, providing 48 kHz stereo sound.

The NewQ DisplayLink 16-in-1 USB-C Docking Station is currently on offer for $199.99.

Barrel DC-IN is so last century.
Competitors are already offering usb-c powered docking stations with 100W+ PD.

Displaylink? No thanks

Barrel DC-IN is so last century.

But it's cheaper and can often handle higher Voltages and currents than USB-C PD.
Hence why it's often used on docking stations that are meant to power other devices.

Barrel DC in is so much cheaper to buy/fix and widely available than usb c.
Why would you want it in the power input of your dock? Do you happen to have a type c charger to use with it?

I do have a gan charger and it is doing a wonderful job powering laptops and phones.
This type of charger is about 1/3 of a usual laptop brick and i don't need to carry around 5mm thick (3kW rated) power cable just to power some 20W stuff around.

The good setup would be, usb-c charger -> usb-c docking station -> usb-c laptop -> usb-c monitor ( or monitor -> laptop ).
You can look at it as one daisy-chaned usb-c cable.
Well, perfect setup would be usb-c charger -> laptop -> monitor ( or charger -> monitor -> laptop). Where monitor could act as a hub for other usb-c/a devices.

I am no gamer, so 100W max is perfect for me, and it is sufficient to power all the daisy-chained devices at the same time.
