    Exceeds expectations. Works well with Linux, Ubuntu 18.04I am using this with a Lenovo Yoga 920 and Ubuntu 18.04. It works flawlessly. Display outputs, USB hub, offline charging USB port, Ethernet, power pass-through, and audio all work for me in the current Linux kernel with no special drivers or other hoops to jump through. Everything also runs at full 40Gbps speed as far as I can tell.Mine came with a 0.5M passive type-3 cable, which is the longest a passive TB3 cable can be and still support full 40Gbps connectivity. (not that this dock has 40Gbps of devices, but there is a Thunderbolt pass-through port, remember, so a downstream device like a graphics card could theoretically use that. I have not tried to do this.) Unlike the Dell TB16 and some others, this cable is type-c at both ends, meaning you could replace it with a longer cable if you wanted. Options are a longer passive cable limited to 20Gbps or a much more expensive cable with active electronics that allows you to get 40Gbps at a longer cable length. I think it's nice to have this option as the 0.5M cable constrains placement of the dock/laptop slightly on my desk. I plan to use a longer active cable once it arrives.The only thing to watch out for is that Ubuntu 18.04 supports Thunderbolt security directly through the default Gnome desktop environment. If you're using Unity, an older Gnome, or something else, you might not have any way to unlock access to the dock's functions other than the display adapters until you log in under the newer Gnome and authorize the dock's connection. Even after you've saved it for automatic authorization, you still have to go to Gnome every time to let it connect. You only have to do this once per boot/connection of the dock, and it continues to work under other desktops if you log out and switch over. If the displays are working for you but nothing else is, this may be your problem. Yoga 920 has no TB3 security at the BIOS level, but others such as the 720 do, so that's another thing to keep in mind. These issues is not specific to this dock, it's a general TB3 and Ubuntu thing. Hopefully someone will come up with a standalone tool for managing TB3 security in Linux soon, as Gnome hasn't quite made it back to the grown-up leagues yet and it's annoying to have to use it for anything.Just for comparison, and of relevance to those looking for a TB3 dock to use under Linux: Previously, I had been trying to use a Dell TB16 dock, expecting better support for Linux since Dell does officially support Linux. The problem is that they only support it in combination with certain Precision and Inspiron models. You need a firmware update to the dock just to get it working properly in Linux, and the tool that does the update checks the machine you're running it on and will only run on those models and in Windows. Some Linux support. I did eventually get it working, but it was a lot of hassle and it required using one of those Precision machines. It wouldn't even run on another Dell Inspiron that had TB3 type-c port on it but wasn't on the official support list. This Lenovo dock, by comparison, worked pretty much out of the box. I did let it run driver updates in Windows, but I'm not sure that mattered. I have a Yoga 920, which is not on the official support list for this dock (the 720 is) so if there was a firmware update that touched the dock and not the computer, you *might* need a Lenovo to run it, but I will say that it wasn't obvious to me that Lenovo was restricting support in that way, and it never said it was updating the dock, as opposed to the TB3 firmware on the laptop itself. This dock behaved as expected the first time I plugged it in under Linux.Last comment: Ubuntu 18.04 does boot more slowly when it boots with this plugged in. I don't hide the startup messages and what it sits at is indeed the loading up of thunderbolt. This only adds about 5 seconds or so, and it seems to work just as well if you plug the dock in after the boot is complete. 5Works perfect with my latest Yoga 920 laptop supports multiple monitors including 4K.I purchased this dock to extend peripheral capacity for my new Yoga 920 Lenovo laptop. I took a little gamble because I was unable to find definite answer to whether this dock works with Yoga 920, neither was appearing in compatible accessories on maker website. But since both Yoga and dock use Thunderbolt interface, I took a shot and got it.And I am happy to report all works perfect. Right upon dock connection, Yoga recognized it immediately and activate it. Now I was able to hookup additional external monitors: 32" 4K Samsung and 27" HD monitor. All work great simultaneously with Yoga running 4K at the same time. Then I added my external Pioneer USB3.0 BD/DVD burner to the dock and still have plenty USB ports to use going forward. The dock has everything you may think about including front headphones jack output , additional thunderbolt port and fast USB 3.0 port. Rear is equipped with two Display port outputs, 1 HDMI output, 5 USB 3.0 ports and even analog VGA15 output. The rear Thunderbolt output is used to hookup my Yoga using supplied cable.One more thing, the dock comes with its own power adapter. So my original Yoga adapter now stay in my travel bag while the laptop gets charged through dock whenever is hooked up with it.Overall great product, super easy to install if you have right laptop. Worth every penny. 5Expensive, short cord, can be finickyUsed with a T480. Fine if this is the only docking station you use. Nice compact, professional design. Finishing is standard Lenovo quality. However, Iif you have more than one (e.g. home and office) you may run into issues if you don t have identical setups at each location. Bought a large number of these for our office and are already phasing them out in favor of the more traditional side/slide latch version. Each time you plug in a new dock, it must be approved in the OS, so in an office IT environment they re hard to support. I feel it s a software/firmware quality issue not the hardware. Cord is way too short and long ones are very expensive if you want max TB3 bandwidth. 2Solution to some of the problems??I got this for my daughters dorm room. Before we left I tested the dock to make sure it worked on her Lenovo 920. Everything checked out and ready to go. When we got there she reported to me her monitor and keyboard were disconnecting and not coming back unless she unplugged and re-plugged the dock back in. After troubleshooting the problem (installing drivers etc.) I learned she was using a 6ft thunderbolt 3 cable (we bought off of Amazon) instead of the 3ft cable that came with the dock. I had her switch the cables and she hasn't had a problem since. If she touches the dock or fiddles with it the problem comes back. My thoughts are the Thunderbolt 3 cables are prone to shorts and some of the problems I'm reading on here sound like that may be the cause. Take my advice and check your Thunderbolt cable before you blame the dock. I'm carrying a spare cable for now on. I'm sure this has happened on other branded docks also. 4Easy setup, flawless performance after firmware updateThese docks work great once the firmware is updated. They were pretty awful when they were first released. Make sure you use the correct port on TX80 devices. One USB-C port is only for charging, not docks. You want the port with the lightning bolt icon.Plug in unit, turn onUpdate firmware via Lenovo VantageRebootLaunch Thunderbolt app, 'approve' connected devicesDock should work nowWhen you receive your unit, make sure it's part number 40AC0135US, the part intended USA! I had one seller ship 40AC0135CN, the part intended for China, which will make it difficult to work with warranty. 5I use this with my Yoga 720 15". It ...I use this with my Yoga 720 15". It allows me to run the Yoga display at 4K plus 2 other displays at 1920x1200 via the display ports. And of course attach all my peripherals. only 4 stars because Lenovo doesn't supports this or any of their docks for the Yoga series. That said, it works for me but it does not power the laptop and the power button on the dock does nothing. I imagine that is a limitation of the model of laptop not being officially supported for use with this dock. 4I do not recommend this productI do not recommend this product. I paired it with a new ThinkPad Carbon X1 and they do not work well together. The dock causes the fan to run permanently. Getting the laptop to wake up from Sleep mode doesn't work with the dock. Worst of all, there is an electric pop noise that comes out of my speakers every time a screen changes or every 10-20 seconds. I've talked to Lenovo Tech Support 3 times at length and had no fix. Not to mention, the Lenovo Tech Support folks in Atlanta are not at all familiar with the products and just search a database for every question, worse than any Tech Support I've ever experienced. Awful experience. Lenovo sent me a replacement but the same problems exist with it. Now it's taken me 2 months to work with Lenovo on these issues with no resolution, but it's too late to return it to Amazon. :( 1Does not work--even with a brand new Lenovo laptopI bought this to use with my new X1 Carbon 6th gen. The dock does not recognize my mouse, keyboard, or ethernet. I spent 2 hours updating drivers and running system upgrade software on the Lenovo site, following Lenovo instructions, and the dock still doesn't work! It is shocking to me that a brand new modern laptop from Lenovo would not work with the Lenovo dock--a dock which was recommended by a Lenovo sales rep--and waste my time and anger me in the process. I am returning this unit for sure. 1Worked great until it overheatedThis worked great for a week or two, and then just died. I nearly burned my hand on the case it was so hot, and when I went to replug in from the proprietary connector, the metal band around the yellow plastic end burned my finger. I unplugged it and let it cool for several hours. Now, nothing but a blinking amber light. This has a 3 year warranty, but it was easier to return to Amazon. I'm hoping this was just a lemon, because when it worked, it worked *perfectly* on my Thinkpad X1 Carbon 5th gen with Ubuntu 17.10. No futzing, 2 Display port monitors, Ethernet, USB 2 mouse/keyboard, and audio out worked without a hitch. Note to other X1 owners: I replaced this with the Lenovo USB-C UltraDock and the UltraDock seems to work fine (also no special drivers required). I was never able to get triple display working using HDMI on the dock itself, but dual DisplayPort monitors and HDMI directly to the X1 worked without issue. 3One for all!I am using three external monitors on this dock connected to my X1 Yoga gen 2. (Note that neither the laptop LCD nor the HDMI port on the Yoga can be used as the 4th desktop. That's a limitation from the Intel display chip.)I had no disconnection or reliability issues mentioned in other reviews. It is important to use the Lenovo Vantage app to get the latest firmware! 5
