Boost and Simplify your Productive: A Review of the HP Thunderbolt Dock 120W G2 with HDMI Adapter

The HP Thunderbolt Dock 120W with HDMI Adapter is a versatile docking station that allows you to connect and power your workspace using a single USB-C Thunderbolt cable. It is compatible with both HP and non-HP laptops, as well as Mac OS X and Windows operating systems. 


With this dock, you can:

  • Connect multiple accessories through its various ports.
  • Charge your devices.
  • Connect to a wired switch or router.
  • Extend your laptop screen to dual 4K displays using the included USB-C to HDMI 2.0 adapter.
Laptops with Thunderbolt technology have special ports that offer several advantages over traditional USB ports such as; 

  • Powerful Connection: Thunderbolt ports combine multiple technologies like DisplayPort and PCI Express (PCIe) into a single compact connector. This allows for significantly faster data transfer speeds compared to standard USB ports.
  • Daisy Chaining:  Thunderbolt allows for daisy-chaining multiple devices. Using just one Thunderbolt cable on your laptop, you can connect several devices (like monitors, docks, and storage drives) in series.
  • Compatibility:  Thunderbolt ports often use the same physical connector as USB-C. However, not all USB-C ports support Thunderbolt functionality. Look for the Thunderbolt logo next to the port on your laptop to confirm its compatibility.
In essence, "Thunderbolt-enabled laptops" signify laptops equipped with these advanced ports that unlock faster data transfer, multi-functionality, and a more streamlined workspace setup.


I bought my HP Thunderbolt Dock 120W G2 in 2022 for use on my two Chromebooks, the Thinkpad 13 Chromebook and the HP Chromebook - 15-de0021cl. I figured it would simplify things with my two Chromebooks by allowing me to connect them to peripherals devices, dual monitors with just a single Thunderbolt cable. This eliminates desk clutter and reduces wear and tear on my laptop's ports. The ability to connect multiple peripherals like keyboards, a mouse, an external hard drive, and an additional monitor significantly improves the way I use my Chromebook. Having a larger display and easy access to my peripherals makes everything easy and convenient.

This HP Thunderbolt Dock 120W G2 with HDMI Adapter streamlines connectivity enhances display options, and provides a reliable solution for users seeking a laptop docking station that works.  With its robust features and reliable performance, the HP Thunderbolt Dock 120W with HDMI Adapter is a worthy addition to any workspace

 If you need a high-performance docking station with all the bells and whistles, the HP Thunderbolt Dock is a solid choice. However, if you're looking for a more basic and affordable option, there are plenty of other docking stations available that may better suit your needs.
