@brendenvogt: 👨🏼‍🔧⚙️I Fixed a $150 HP Dock in 60 Seconds Try opening up your device and take a look before you trash it, could save you a pretty penny. #quickfix #electronics #TechTips #repair #diytech

max :

just let be know if u want more hp docking station i throw them all away u can have them most of them are completly fine

maynardschriner :

That's incredibly serviceable. The engineer was having a good day that day. Surprised it made it past management being so easy to fix.

keepgoingmomo :

For anyone attempting to do this, make sure you have a cable that has a high enough Gbps on it (and can fit of course). For my docking station its 20 Gbps. Not sure how much these cables carry.

Alejandro Diaz :

Well now that you told them this, they are going to upgrade the firmware to only allow proprietary cables to work lol

wolph :

While this is indeed really repairable, they could have just exposed that port to make it even easier. The docks I have all just have a place where I can plug in a cable.

The_black_Fire :

Is that a standard USB C? If so why ist Hp makeing it more obvious you can so easily replace it?

TheyCall_Me_Vee :

good on HP for making it a simple fix and not soldering the cable to the board!

Lane Pruitt779 :

Are dell docks made the same way? Specifically the WD19S.

perorezerva :

HP and well designed is hard to hear in the same sentence but at least they got this one right 😁

𝖘𝖆𝖎𝖓𝖙 :

Very surprising for HP to do that.

ChrisMansfield_ :

You know how many returns I’ve done over the years 😂😂😂

Ciano De Los Santos :

But tbh do these docks ever really “work”.

Antonio :

HP...

bigballer :

wow very repairable

dukenavy :

What!!!! You know how many of these things I threw away at SSA.

ohiobrine :

tuff

Kibcura :

the docking from hp is the biggest scam.

Dr. Gregory House :

The Lenovo Thinkpad USB C docks are much more reliable

Guizemen :

Thats an insanely rare HP W for a change, holy cow. Thanks for sharing. I've got 2 of these with weird connectivity issues, I wonder if I can just swap the cable and test. I'm used to docks just being completely unrepairable by most conventional means

IT DEPARTMENT :

JS :

but modern laptos already have usb c display included so docks are not longer needed

Mark Markguyver Gibb :

🤷‍♂️So.... what are the docks for? What do they do?

nikkie🍄 :

Docks really shouldn’t cost as much as a basic monitor.

the_red_hood0 :

They’re really well designs except when it comes to hinges😂

jzilla3x :

wow love that
