The company also provides a transparent self-adhesive port protector you can attach if you’re concerned about marks. Insertion is painless, the internal sleeve protecting against scratches while guiding it precisely onto place to mate with the USB-C plugs at the bottom of the dock. Side-on, there’s a fairly subtle Brydge logo end-on, an even more subtle Y. The dock also looks equally good whether you orientate it side-on or end-on. The solid metal chassis means that it remains firmly in place on your desk, and the base provides something you can press down on when lifting your MacBook out of the dock. The color is somewhere between Apple’s silver and Space Gray, so should look good with MacBooks of either color.
Look and feelĪs you’d expect from a Brydge product, it looks great. Just slide the MacBook down into the dock, and you’re connected. It doesn’t offer any extra ports instead, it offers you an instant, neat, and desk-space saving way to instantly connect your MacBook to your monitor. So the Brydge MacBook Vertical Dock is a different type of dock. That genuinely does deliver gigabit speeds, but needs a wired Ethernet connection, so that meant a second USB-C cable with an Ethernet adapter.
Just, you know, because it was available. Until, that is, we got Gigabit broadband. All my external drives are connected to the monitor, so connect one cable, and I’m done. A single USB-C cable from my monitor carries power, video, and data.

This is for those who don’t need extra portsīut one of the things I love most about USB-C is that it enables a single-cable connection between my 16-inch MacBook Pro and everything I need to connect to on my desk. The Stone Pro, for example, gets you 11 ports. If it’s extra ports you want, Brydge still has you covered today, in the form of a purely external dock. If you’re mainly using a MacBook Pro with Retina Display for your setup, this tough dock will provide 13 ports of connectivity you’ll find two TRS audio jacks, an SD card reader, HDMI output, six USB 3.0 ports, Ethernet, and two Thunderbolt 2 ports. The first, which we tried way back in 2015, is a way to add ports to a MacBook. There are, though, two different takes on the idea … The basic idea is that you use the laptop as a standalone machine when mobile, then snap it into a dock when you return to your desk, to effectively turn it into a desktop computer. The concept of a laptop dock has been around for decades now. Brydge acquired the company back in 2019 and has continued to develop new models since then. The Brydge MacBook Vertical Dock is the latest incarnation of what used to be Henge Docks.
