edit: confirmed:
pricing...not so much....
And given that it's made by da Razzero, it will probably fail about 1 week AFTER the warranty runs out, if it even lasts that long :(

Just this makes me disappointed in this...
It should be able to drive itself with 60 or 100W PD from the host computer.
They should work on reducing the cable clutter around you.
Anyways fail no RGB HA, would of been cool if some one added the right color of led for each port :P.
If you don't need 4K/120Hz then there are plenty of HDMI 2.0 variants for like $30.

Are there other USB4 docks that use this same chipset yet?
This guy has a review of a bunch of them, but he hasn't updated his site this year, not sure why.
He also has a list of most of them, as of January this year.

I also like the usage of term “innovative technology” in this context. Yeah, never seen such docks before, very innovative, much technology.
Just isn’t the same if it isn’t blinding me with every color of the rainbow once I turn on the PC. It just isn’t.
