Anker 575 USB-C Docking Station vs Jsaux 12-in-1 USB4 Docking Station: which one fits your build

The Anker 575 USB-C Docking Station is the one to take for work laptops where installing drivers is not allowed, though it is the wrong buy for Mac users who want more than one extended display and charging laptops that need more than 85W. The same goes for Windows laptops driving one 4K 60Hz monitor or up to three 1080p monitors. Avoid it for two 4K monitors at 60Hz, since dual 4K runs at 30Hz. The Jsaux 12-in-1 USB4 Docking Station suits budget-conscious buyers wanting USB4 speed without Thunderbolt pricing and conference rooms still relying on legacy VGA projectors, though it is not built for buyers who specifically need certified Thunderbolt 4 compatibility and high-power workstations needing charging above 100W. It is not the one for users who never touch a VGA-equipped display and don't need that port. Our rating of the Anker 575 USB-C Docking Station (7/10): A driver-free 13-port dock with 85W charging and three video outputs. Great for one 4K 60Hz screen or up to three 1080p screens on Windows; two 4K screens drop to 30Hz, and Macs only mirror extra displays. Our rating of the Jsaux 12-in-1 USB4 Docking Station (7/10): the best budget USB4 dock here for buyers who want Thunderbolt-adjacent speed without the price tag.
