Know your gear
The Targus AWU420GL is recommended for users docking only a DeX-capable Samsung phone. It has all the functionality of the original Samsung DeX dock, but Targus has added SD/uSD card support. The AWU420GL can also be used with many other phone brands, but a capable Samsung device is needed to run in DeX mode.

I couldn't make it work.
I was very excited to try this Universal USB-C Phone Dock, but unfortunately, I couldn't make it work properly. I tried it with 2 of my phones: Samsung Galaxy S20 and Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra. I'm unsure what I was doing wrong, but nothing worked except the headphones. I connected them to the dock and could use them with my Galaxy S21 Ultra (a good thing for me since S21 Ultra doesn't have a headphone jack). However, nothing else worked. The phones weren't charging at all, even though the phones were showing the "charging" symbol on top of the screen. I think I tried everything and used a bunch of different cables (explicitly ordered for this port) to see if that was the problem. I couldn't connect it to my computers, so I couldn't read a CD card and do other things the dock was supposed to do. I'm disappointed because I was planning to use this phone dock daily.

Universal USB C PHON DOCK
Very sturdy. Charges my phone pretty good. Lightweight. You can also plug up external hard drive this is pretty cool device contraption very worth getting if you have a phone that has a USB C port for the plug in

Love this for our phones
We have type C devices and this is so handy to have. My husband's phone fits perfect, but mine is a z fold so I'm unable to use the standup function to plug into. I do like how we can use this for multiple things, vs just one. Easy to plug in and start charging devices.

Awesome Product!
We love our Universal USB-C Phone deck. There's so many different plugs tonuse.and can be used for just about anything. I love that I don't have to unplug anything to make room for something, it's right here. So easy to set up and to even take on the go. We use it all the time and for everything. We have recommended it to friends and family.

Good
This is small great for the desk.. My only complaint though is that it didn't come with any of the cables even the C cable needed. I. I do wish it would have come with that. But it is easy to set up and understand.

USB-C just sucks for anything besides charging
some times it works and sometimes it doesn't. I can't figure out why. I bought his so I could plug in a headset with 3.5mm jack for calls while charging my phone. My phone is a samsung Galaxy S22 that doesn't have a headset jack; I need to use a usb-c adapter. This is the 5th device I've tried, and I'm still not happy.

Works great
I work from home so easy access to ports is a must. I can easily connect my phone charger to the dock, insert sd card, plug my Ethernet cable into it, it just WORKS all around for me and my work from home needs. I love how small it is and doesn’t take up much desk space at all. Best thing yet, I don’t have to crawl under my desk to plug or unplug anything now. The one thing I wish this had is wireless phone charging. That would be a huge bonus. Great product overall and absolutely recommend to those working from home!!

One handy gaget
I received this product. The targus universal USB c. Docking station. This is one of the hardest products I have gotten in a while.. it saves you so much time of change your cords and switching out chargers and hookups. This product is very high quality and easy as one two three to get started. I'm so happy to find a product that takes the stress out of your everyday work on your phone pc or whatever you need to use. Even your keyboard and headset. Just amazing piece of technology. I give it a ten. Will continue to buy and use this product. Thank you for a great product.

Nice stand
This dock does not always charge when connected. It does make a nice stand for watching or having a better look for the office desk. Disappointed that it does not charge always. Material looks good though.

Doesn't charge my phone
When I'm at home, I plug my phone in one of two places, the bedroom or the living room. Rather than having to move a cord back and forth, I was looking forward to having a base for my phone throughout the day. However, I have a Samsung Galaxy S20 and I'm disappointed with the charging capabilities of this dock. Not only do I have to push it down hard, it also has to be sitting at the right angle or it doesn't charge, and this is with or without the cover. What this is good for? Running my table top fan which is usually plugged into my laptop. I received this product for an honest review.

Ten stars
I love this so much! It’s great for SO many things.. charging of course, can charge my phone and watch at the same time because there is more than one USB port, you can also connect your phone to the tv, it’s also convenient just for FaceTime videos it holds it up well for you so you can chat hands free without it falling over or only having one hand available. Love it!!

So Many Ways to Use!
This phone dock opens so many new doors to ways that I can use my phone. I've hooked my phone up to our TV to show my photos and screen to others. I've charged my phone on it. I've also just simply used it to hold my phone upright to read recipes while cooking. I still exploring and learning all of the ways I can use this dock to enhance my phone use. The only downside is it didn't come with directions or an idea sheet for what you can do with all of the ports so I've been doing my own research online figuring out how to optimize my phone use with it. I wish it came with better directions or even some of the cords needed to complete the hookups but we do have so many random cords in our house I easily found most of what I need. Overall, this little dock is easy to set up your phone on and opens so many more doors to effective ways to use your phone.

Works great
This Targus USC-C phone dock is just what I needed. It is small and compact and I like that it does not take up much room on my desk. You can charge your while while also doing so much else with it like connecting to your tv. I have no had any problems with it so far and now that I have it I am not sure how I go back to how I was doing it all before!

All In One Unit
I placed this on my nightstand to charge my phone while I sleep. The box only included the unit, no cords or plugs. Once I plugged it in, there is a very bright green light that is always lit and it made my dark room even brighter. There are a lot of input outlets to charge numerous items at once. I think I will re-locate the unit since I cannot turn the green light off, but other than that it is a nice all in one device!

great charger
So convenient - it is easy to transport to any room in the house - the base can tilt to two different angles. You can connect a keyboard to it also and charge to devices at the same time. All while taking up a small amount of space and it stays out of the way an d its very lightweight.

At first I didn't really understand how this worked out until my tech husband helped me understand. This thing does everything. It's the perfect dock to keep all of my wires for things in one place. Highly recommend

Multiple features
I'm not the most tech savvy person so I'm not sure if I've gotten all I can from this. It does work better with Samsung and Motorola devices but can be used with others. Basically I use it to mirror apps from a smartphone to a desktop or laptop. A good product for tech smart people.

I got this universal USB-C charger for a family vacation so we can charge multiple devices at once. It works well, is quick to charge and reliable. It is built well, durable, and has multiple features. I would recommend this charger if you’re considering it.

Not terrible
Not terrible. The concept is cool but I own a gaming pc and don’t need to turn my phone into a computer. I look at my pc as a portal pc. The concept is good for possibly a business person but for me I don’t see it’s worth it.

Wow!
I'll admit I didn't know what to expect from this when I got it as I'm quite the luddite, but this dock proved to be quite the incredible tool in such a small package. Setup is ridiculously easy, and I used my S21 and hooked it up to a portable keyboard I had and was seriously impressed. Absolutely get one of these if you travel and bring a keyboard and a USB cable or three and you will quite literally have a computer in your hand.

Perfect device for travel.
I have a Samsung phone that I use for everything, but found I need a laptop when I'm in a hotel room. I hate carrying a lot of things when I travel. With this docking station and a folding keyboard/mouse combo, I basically have a desktop when I'm in the room without having to carry any extra baggage. I love it.

Gets the job done
Its a multi use phone dock basically. You can use it to charge your phone but also their are others ports in the back that can used to charge other kinds of things. But it does not support apple products.
