Targus, the number one laptop bag brand in the US1 and a leader in laptop cases and mobile computing accessories, today announced the availability of its new USB-C Dual Host Hybrid Triple Video KVM Docking Station with Dual 100 W Power (DOCK750). This flexible hybrid/universal dock enhances the capabilities of a single docking station by allowing users to connect and simultaneously power and control two different host devices across up to three monitors and multiple downstream peripherals via a single dock.

"By bringing dual host with KVM-sharing capabilities to a dock, enterprise users can quickly and easily operate two laptops or switch between them, while keeping them powered and connected through the docking station," explains Ron DeCamp, Vice President, Global Product Management & Development. "This makes it faster and easier than before to perform common tasks like standardizing desks for mobile and desktop users, plugging into a workspace for quick collaboration, or transitioning between a work and personal computer at home. By expanding the capabilities of a single docking station, DOCK750 is also an excellent solution to optimize the use of valuable workspace and reduce desktop clutter."

Today, Logitech International introduced a desk booking service that delivers a better hotdesking experience for employees and a greater ability to manage shared desks across multiple locations. The service runs on Logi Dock Flex, a fully-featured managed docking station built for shared desks in flexible work environments. The move to a hybrid work model has given companies the opportunity to reassess and optimize their office space. But the hybrid evolution has also introduced the challenges of motivating employees back to the office, and the need for data and insights to understand space configuration and continued investment.

"Businesses know they have to earn the commute to get hybrid work employees into the office. The answer is not to add more foosball tables, but to instead offer a way for employees to plan their in-office days together," said Scott Wharton, general manager of Logitech B2B. "We took a multidimensional approach to building Logi Dock Flex that not only solves desk booking and management issues, but promotes social collaboration and gives IT and workplace managers data on how the tech and space are being used."

Syntech, an innovative manufacturer of quality and affordable electronic accessories and consumer technology products, has today announced the launch of its new 6-in-1 USB-C Docking Station for Steam Deck. Providing users with 6 different ports to meet most needs, and the ability to output to a 4K monitor or TV at 60Hz, it is a handy and ergonomically designed gadget to complement a Steam Deck gaming setup. The Syntech 6-in-1 Docking Station for Steam Deck is available for £39.99/$39.99 on Amazon UK and Amazon US.

The Philips 45B1U6900C combines a dual-monitor setup in a single display. The Philips 45B1U6900C is equipped with a large, 44.5" (113 cm diagonal) screen with Double QHD (5120 x 1440) resolution and several other features that are designed to aid professionals' multitasking, such as: USB-C docking with an RJ45 (Gigabit Ethernet) input, a 32:9 SuperWide aspect ratio, and a curvature of 1500R with viewing angles of 178/178 degrees.

Instead of having two separate monitors, the Philips 45B1U6900C's 44.5" screen and 32:9 SuperWide aspect ratio allow professionals to easily open multiple windows side-by-side, without a bezel in the middle dividing the content abruptly. The 32:9 aspect ratio also helps to have an extra-wide perspective for working with timeline-based software such as video or audio editors. In addition, the monitor's curved VA panel produces wide, 178°/178° viewing angles and crisp, high-contrast imagery, while the 1500R curvature creates an overall more immersive experience.

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.

Ugreen, the award-winning manufacturer of quality and affordable electronic accessories and consumer technology products, has today announced the launch of its new 9-in-1 USB-C Docking Station. Providing users with 100 W fast charging, 9 different ports to meet most needs, quick file transfer and the ability to extend to up to 2 extra displays, it is a handy and compact gadget to help to work more efficiently. The Ugreen 9-in-1 USB-C Docking Station is available for £199.99/$199.99 on Amazon UK, Amazon US and the Ugreen website.

Featuring a huge 9 ports, the Docking Station simplifies and clears a workstation effectively as it is able to meet most expansion needs alone. Equipped with 2 HDMI 4K, 2 DP 4K, 1 PD 3.0 100 W, 2 USB-A 3.2 (10 Gbps), 1 USB-C 3.2 (10 Gbps) and 1 Gigabit Ethernet, it can cope with almost any daily work that a user might need from it. It is also compatible with multiple systems and devices so can easily slot into an existing setup whether it is Windows or macOS.

Syntech, global digital accessories industry leader, has announced the release of its latest recent product——the 6-in-1 Multifunctional Docking Station. This docking station is compatible with the portable gaming device Valve Steam Deck and is aimed to enhance the overall gaming experience. Syntech is committed to providing the greatest game user experience, which led to the creation of this product. The docking station features an HDMI 2.0 4K@60 Hz output, a gigabit Ethernet input, 3x USB-A 3.0 output, and a USB-C 3.0 output for high-speed charging. This docking station allows game user to connect Steam Deck to a broad selection of displays, controllers, and peripherals. The revolutionary spherical base design highlights the minimalist look, improves support stability, and does not obstruct the heat vents, guaranteeing that the Steam Deck stays cool throughout extended gaming sessions.

The built-in superior smart chip expands the compatibility of the USB C hub with most Type-C devices, such as phones, tablets, and laptops. This feature ensures that the docking station is compatible with a wide range of devices, making it a versatile accessory for any game user or digital content creator.

To date, there's something of a shortage of actual USB4 devices on the market and to date it appears that VLI with its VL830 endpoint device controller is leading the market. Although we can't be certain that Anker's new 568 USB4 Type-C hub uses the VL830, the VLI chip has appeared in almost all similar devices on the market and the specs suggest it's built around the VL830. The Anker 568 supports a single USB4 input, fortunately it doesn't rely on a captive cable as it has a standard USB-C port as the input. Thanks to a 180 W power input via a 20 V 9 A power brick, it can charge laptops up to 100 W via the USB-C port.

Outputs consist of one HDMI port capable of 4K 60p output and a pair of DisplayPort outputs, both capable of 8K 30p individually or 4K 60p when both are used. There's also a Gigabit Ethernet port, four 5 Gbps USB-A ports and two USB 2.0 ports around the rear of the dock. The front houses a pair of 10 Gbps capable USB-C ports that can also deliver up to 30 W of power for charging various portable electronics. The MSRP for the Anker 568 is US$299.99.

We're happy to announce that with today's batch of order emails, we have completed our reservation queue. We are now in-stock and Steam Deck is available for purchase! It's been more than a year since Steam Deck was first announced. Since day one we've been dealing with numerous supply chain issues and component shortages. While the team worked to resolve these issues and catch up with demand, we implemented a reservation system. This system enabled customers to save their spot in line without having to worry about refreshing pages, fighting scripts, or battling bots.

The team has worked hard over the past year to address shortages and solve logistics issues, and because of these efforts we're now manufacturing and shipping Steam Decks at our highest rate ever. Despite the ever-increasing reservation rate, we've been able to beat our shipping estimates, and as of today, finally complete the queue.
