I was stoked before getting my Dell Precision 5510 (aka XPS 15 Pro) that it would have a USB-C docking station. It would be awesome with one tiny cable for power+displays+all my desktop USB devices.

But it's never actually worked, I ended up RMAing the docking station. Since the laptop itself can only support one display, I can't have dual monitors. So now I have a 43" 4K monitor, a USB hub and a power connector that I need to plug in/out all the time. And Win10 still gets confused about DPIs and scaling and stuff.

On my ancient-but-still-kicking Dell Precision, at least the docking station actually works and you can simply click in and out in three seconds.



Get a CalDigit TS3, we have them at the Office and the Precision 5510 works even on Linux with them flawlessly.


Thanks, will try!
