I do light design and image retouching on it, as well as email, web browsing and writing.
As someone who is in the market for a new Mac in the next year, I watched the keynote with a pretty good amount of excitement and anticipation.Īt the conclusion of Apple’s keynote presentation, I found myself staring at the screen with a dazed and confused look on my face.įor years I’ve had a MacBook Pro for taking work on the road. When it comes to the Mac, Apple is making it reeeeeaaally hard to be a fanboyĪpple recently released new MacBook Pro models with great hype. 5 meter 40Gb/s transfer speed and 2 meter 20Gb/s. OWC’s Thunderbolt 3 Dock comes in Space Gray or Silver, and cable length varies between. And the device is powered, so it can charge your iPhone. 5 USB 3 ports, Firewire 800, Ethernet, Display Port, audio-in and SD Card slot are included, along with two Thunderbolt ports capable of driving 4K displays. The OWC Dock is a bit more than that, but also gives you significantly more options than straight dongles from Apple.Īs you can see in the image above, the OWC Thunderbolt 3 Dock includes plenty of ports. In yesterday’s rant, I mentioned some would have to spend upwards of $200 for dongles to gain the ports they found necessary. The Dock is obviously in response to Apple’s latest MacBook Pro announcement I wrote about yesterday.
OWC is accepting pre-orders for their Thunderbolt 3 Dock, due to ship in February, starting at $280 (depends on the length of the Thunderbolt cable you want included).
