Day-to-day, it’s been a pleasure having the Dell TB16 on my desk. I take my notebook home each night, and being able to reconnect displays, speakers, Ethernet and an external DVD drive with a single cable is terrific.
The added USB 3.0 ports on the front are very convenient, and will easily power external 2.5-inch hard drives or charge phones.
While Dell lists the Thunderbolt Dock TB16 at US$299 (AU$409) on their website, have a chat with their online sales people as you can often do better (as I did).
If you’re looking to streamline your desk setup and have a Thunderbolt 3-equipped notebook, the Dell Thunderbolt Dock TB16 is definitely worth a look.
The Dell Thunderbolt Dock TB16 can be purchased directly from Dell.
Source: Purchased by reviewer
Price: US$299 (AU$409)
What I Like: Connect Ethernet, multiple monitors, and peripherals with one cable; notebook charging (where compatible)
What Needs Improvement: Two HDMI ports would be nice
are u able to connect with more than one monitor using dell dock without using other port on your razer?
Hi,
Were you able to update the firmware of the dock or charge the razer blade from the dock?
No, and I don’t believe you ever would.
My 2016 Blade 14 (long sold) came with a 165W power brick, which is well outside the 100W of USB-C, and even whatever hack Dell did to provide 130W charging for the XPS.
Unfortunately not, I was never able to get that to work with the Blade bet fore I sold it.
