Pros & Cons
Pros
As they’re all fairly similar you have to look for the little details that set them apart. Both have something special to offer, is the point. I hope the information that i've provided makes your decision a little easier.
The body is well built and has a nice feel and weight to it but it’s compact. Chiefly, i really wish this had a thunderbolt pass-through port. The only gripe i have is with the shiny piano-black plastic front and rear faceplates.
The dock works perfectly as a plug-and-play dock on my macbook pro. There are also usb a ports and an audio output port together with an sd and micro sd slot which is amazing for such a small docking station. The dock also provides a few ports that ar... Read More
Wavlink sits vertically, freeing up valuable desk space. Switchover to docking station is seamless and relatively quick.
Cons
The problem is that i have 1 monitor that takes both * and hdmi, but the 2nd one only takes hdmi (or vga) sometimes only 1 monitor would be detected, sometimes not at all. When i disconnect and reconnect my windows laptop i get terrible frame rate on ... Read More

Highlights
Quality
Very solid material and easy to use with a full easy to understand manual.

Price
Wow, that's as much as i paid for my used laptop.
Packaging/appearance
In fact, there is already visible scratching on the plastic just from rubbing against the cardboard packaging!
Oddly, mine came with the case installed branded backwards, but ocd aside, i think i'm the only one to notice.
Competitiveness

I think kensington does have software you can download to customize some of the dock settings but it is not necessary and you dont have to use it if you dont want to

I would have really really preferred they used a matte finish plastic instead

I dont know why they thought it was a good idea to use this shiny plastic on parts you are meant to touch and insert metal plugs into on a daily basis

The dock is meant to sit on a desk and i dont see any holes on here for wallmounting it if you want to mount this you will need to fabricate a custom bracket

Interestingly i do not see a security slot on here to lock it to your desk
