![]() This time, the power brick is really bigger than the docking station itself.Ĭompared to the previous generation G2 Dock, some features have been cut:.The new docking station has no audio module and one cannot be added by the user.Last time I tested the G2 Dock, this feature was very annoying that even a DC adjustable power supply can’t power the dock. The HP 7.4mm DC power jack has the same specification as the Dell’s, but only HP’s own power supply is allowed to use with HP’s special recognition mechanism.The stupid naming pattern, this is not only a problem with the docking station, but other HP product lines, here I won’t go into details.However, HP also likes to stuff some sub-optimal features into current products for some known and unknown reasons: From the actual internal structure or use experience, HP products do imply a certain level of reliability. There are already many HP docking station teardown posts in my column. For this post, I’ve used a miniature photo studio to improve the photo quality as well as picture content of my topology speculation.Īs one of the three main PC manufacturers, HP’s ability to design related accessories is indeed first-class. It’s been a long time since my last teardown post, and this is the first time for me to disassemble a Thunderbolt 4 dock.
