    Rated 5 out of 5 by RKBrown from Excellent Investment The newer block dock requires less space than the original docks. I have had no problems with connections, with device communication, or device recognition. My complaint or suggestion is to remove the DP ports and add more USB-A and USB-C ports. I had to add a USB hub for the rest of my connections.

    Rated 4 out of 5 by Peter Bergh from Needs firmware update When I first connected it to my laptop and connected my hubs to the dock, the laptop only saw one device from each hub. I checked HP's web site and found out that the dock had been delivered with out-of-date firmware. I downloaded and installed the latest dock firmware, after which everything was hunky-dory. It's HP's job to make sure their devices are delivered with up-to-date firmware. HP failed to do that. The customer should not have to fix HP's failures. Bottom line: device fine, HP failed.

    Rated 3 out of 5 by Anonymous from Good Dock but pricey. Good Dock but pricey, also larger than normal due to higher power output. We also had an issue with ASUS Pro Art Monitors connected to this dock using Display Port to Display Port cables (monitors kept connecting / disconnecting). Display Port to HDMI worked without issues, however this may be a Windows 11 issue and not a hardware issue.

    Can two 4K 60Hz displays be run as extended displays on the two display ports? Or does one of the displays need to be connected to a TB port?

    Asked by: Nickzz
    Thank you for your question! The HP Thunderbolt Dock 280W G4 will broadcast 4K at 60Hz on two displays using the two DisplayPorts or the HDMI and a DisplayPort. However, in order to broadcast at 60Hz, a Thunderbolt port is required on the host PC. If the host PC only has a USB-C with DisplayPort then it will broadcast at 30Hz.

    Hello, will this work for HP ProBook 640 G8 Notebook PC? If works, which one should I choose between 120W and 280W version if I still plugin my original HP power supply?

    Team, will this new HP Thunderbolt Dock G4 also work with older EliteBook 850's such as the G6 G7 G*, etc?

    Asked by: Gus K
    Hello Gus and thanks for your question! Yes, if those EliteBooks came equipped with a ThunderBolt compatible dock this HP Thunderbolt Dock G4 280W will be compatible. If the EliteBooks did not have a Thunderbolt Dock but a USB-C dock then the HP USB-C Dock G5 is your best option. Thanks for being an HP customer!
