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?
Unfortunately not, I was never able to get that to work with the Blade bet fore I sold it.
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.
