I'm looking for recommendations on the best docking station for my laptop that supports dual monitors. I have a Dell XPS-15 9550 with a Thunderbolt port and want to extend my desktop across two external monitors. I've seen a wide range of prices, from budget options to high-end models. What features should I prioritize, and is it worth spending more for better performance? Also, can I mix HDMI and DisplayPort connections without issues? Any specific models you would recommend based on your experiences? Thanks!

I recommend the CalDigit TS4 Thunderbolt dock for dual monitor setups. It delivers 98W power delivery, supports dual 4K@60Hz displays, and offers excellent port selection including multiple USB-A/C ports, ethernet, and SD card reader. While pricey ($400), its build quality and reliability justify the investment. For a budget option, the Anker 777 ($250) is also solid, supporting dual 4K@60Hz and 85W charging. Just ensure your laptop has Thunderbolt/USB4 support and verify the specific display outputs match your monitor connections. Both docks have consistently positive user reviews for stability.
