Hi everyone,
I have a Surface Pro 9 for work and looking for a usb-c dock/hub that supports:
usb c input to plug in my ultrawide monitor while in the office that will also charge the laptop (DisplayPort 1.2, 65w)
2xusb-a 3.0 slots for logitech and headset usb dongles
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thank you.
These guys seem to have some reasonably priced refurbed docks that suit your needs.

Thank you! I like the idea of these docks for a nice, clean desk setup.
I'm trying to figure out if any of these will also work with sending video to my ultrawide monitor by just plugging into usb-c? I run 3440 x 1440 at 120hz
In my current setup, I just plug my monitor into usb-c on Surface Pro, which charges and sends video to monitor, but now need the addition of the usb-a ports for my other devices.
I could just get a usb-c to 2xusb-a adaptor, as the Surface has two usb-c ports, but prefer something a bit cleaner like these docks
The Dell one should be one cable between your surface and the dock. May need a driver download. You may not be able to run 120Hz but definitely 60Hz.
I used to use this particular one for work with Dell’s version of the surface and it worked fine.
I'm a fan of the Dell HD22Q, which appears to tick all your boxes. $120ish frequently enough on Amazon, or $98 if you have eBay plus.
I most like it because it's compact for my wfh desk (relative to the bulkier Dells we have at work) and doubles as a wireless phone charger.
It's compatible with 4K 120hz in some configurations but may be worth consulting manuals.
Works superbly for me on HP and Dell laptops and got one for my mum who has a Surface Pro 9 (and had no requests for help come back).

Though I don't think the PD USB-C also supports data/video. Does have a second USB-C though.
