This is separate from the host charging capabilities which top out at 90W. The three 10Gbps USB-A ports can easily handle modern accessories, and I tested up to about 13W of charging power with a phone connected. The Razer Thunderbolt 4 Dock Chroma's sleek look and RGB lighting make it a top pick for gamers, but professionals can also take advantage of its strong performance.Īside from extra displays, the Razer Thunderbolt 4 Dock Chroma handled everything from webcams, keyboards, and mice to SD cards and other external storage. As mentioned, the only drawback is having no native video out, but I was able to connect displays successfully via Thunderbolt 4 and an adapter. The dock can handle up to dual 4K displays, each with a 60Hz refresh rate, and I've also used the dock with all kinds of ultrawide, QHD, and FHD displays.

I can plug a laptop straight into it and have immediate access to all other connected accessories, including external monitors. I've used the Razer Thunderbolt 4 Dock Chroma off and on for a couple of years without issue. Aside from the RGB lighting, the bottom of the dock has a thick strip of rubberized padding that helps keep the dock in place on a desk.

There's a Razer logo on the top, but it's inconspicuous. The dock's shell is all aluminum, and it has a matte black finish to match many other Razer products. Unlike some competing docks, the Thunderbolt 4 Dock Chroma doesn't use plastic for the port-surrounding faceplates.

You can also completely disable the lighting. Have a more subdued setup for a professional setting? Go with a more understated static color that can also help you see your dock in the dark. Have a gaming setup with a ton of existing RGB? Make your dock stand out with a fast-switching pattern.

The Chroma RGB works with Razer's Synapse app, allowing you to customize patterns and colors as you wish. It will take up more room than a vertical dock like the CalDigit TS4, but its flat design has a separate purpose Razer has built RGB lighting into the bottom edges of the dock. Razer's Thunderbolt 4 Dock Chroma is made to sit horizontally on your desk.
