Some laptops, and every base-model M-series MacBook, can only natively drive one external display. DisplayLink docks get around that by sending compressed video over USB and decoding it in the dock. The UD-6950PDZ does that for two 4K monitors and charges the laptop with 100W.

The trade-off is a driver install and slight latency, which is fine for work and not fine for gaming.

Pros & cons

What we like
  • Two 4K 60Hz monitors even on laptops with weak USB-C video output
  • Uses DisplayLink so it works on Macs with base chips too
  • 100W charging
  • Plugable support is responsive
What could be better
  • DisplayLink needs a driver and adds a little latency, so not for gaming
  • Some video DRM (Netflix in browsers) may not play on DisplayLink screens
