One of our favorite budget Thunderbolt docks just got cheaper
One of the best things about laptops nowadays is that they’re slim and thin, but this can also be their main downside because ports have been sacrificed on the altar of ultra-portability. Thankfully, a dock like this Ugreen Revodok Pro 313 can solve the problem just fine and it will only cost you $70 right now, instead of its usual $90. We actually really loved testing out this Ugreen dock, finding it has a great performance and a great price point. Our expert also appreciated its optimized build, although he didn’t really like how short the built-in cord is. Still, this is a device that got a 4.5-star rating from us and our Editors’ Choice award. If you’re wondering just how versatile the gadget is, you should know this is a 13-in-1 docking station that supports three displays. Yep, you read that right — you can connect up to three displays to your laptop, effectively turning it into a multitasker’s dream setup. It’s not just display ports and HDMIs either, because there are loads of USB-A ports too, an audio jack, as well as SD and TF card readers, which can obviously come in handy if you take tons of photos with a camera or if you want to access the videos your dashcam captured, for instance. Oh, and if you want to drop Wi-Fi and use an internet cable instead, there’s an Ethernet port available. So snag this one for $70 at Amazon while this deal is still available.
