Dual-Display: The Anker Prime A83B6 is a 14-in-1 USB-C docking station for connecting a laptop to peripherals, charging devices and external displays. Anker lists dual 4K displays at 60Hz, but says macOS mirrors the two external screens, so the display setup depends on your computer and operating system.

What to know before buying

Dual-display resolution depends on the laptop's DisplayPort capability. Anker says the two external displays mirror each other on macOS.
Anker says the dock cannot charge Lenovo Legion laptops, although other functions work, and recommends using the laptop's original power adapter for optimal performance.
The listed USB-C cable is described as 0.33 ft, 100W and 10Gbps. The manufacturer recommends front USB ports for SSDs and says USB-C downstream data ports do not support charging or display functions.
Anker lists Linux as unsupported. Laptop compatibility also depends on DP Alt Mode and Power Delivery support.

Listing details to confirm

Listing details are inconsistent or unconfirmed: the title and feature copy call this a 14-in-1, while detailed port descriptions enumerate four USB-C, five USB-A, dual HDMI, audio and Ethernet without accounting for all 14; the 160W total output and built-in 180W supply are distinct claims; dimensions are listed as 17.1 x 6.2 x 23.2 centimetres and separately as 140 × 97 × 47 mm; and the package description says 160W while another specification gives 160 Watts nominal power. Confirm the selected listing and intended configuration before purchase. The product details say No Plug, while the feature copy describes an integrated 180W power supply. Verify what power components are included for the selected listing.

Who is it for?

A good fit for

Laptop users seeking a single dock for peripherals, charging and HDMI displays.
Windows, macOS or ChromeOS users whose laptop supports the required USB-C display and power features.
Desk setups where built-in power management feedback and multiple USB ports are useful.

Less suited to

Linux users, as the listing says Linux is not supported.
Mac users who need two independent external desktop displays from this dock.
Lenovo Legion owners who need the dock to charge their laptop.

Customer feedback highlights perceived build quality, charging and display capability, including reports of 4K 60fps with HDR. Some feedback is mixed on port layout and connectivity, and a customer report says the dock stopped working after updates. These points may matter in a multi-monitor desk setup, but the claimed display modes depend on the host laptop and macOS mirrors external screens. Ratings are mostly five-star, but the feedback also includes lower ratings and does not establish why customers chose them.
