OWC today announced its new Thunderbolt 5 Dock, a high-performance connectivity hub designed for creative professionals and power users who need expanded port options for their setups.
The dock features three Thunderbolt 5 ports offering bi-directional data speeds up to 80Gb/s and up to 120Gb/s for display needs. It can power up to three 8K displays or dual 6K displays on Macs, making it suitable for the latest M4 MacBook Pro models that support Thunderbolt 5.
With 11 ports in total, the dock includes two USB-A 10Gb/s ports, one USB-A 5Gb/s port, 2.5GbE Ethernet, microSD and SD card slots, and a 3.5mm audio combo jack. It delivers up to 140W of power, enough for the most energy-hungry notebooks.
The $329.99 dock includes a certified Thunderbolt 5 cable and external power supply. It's available for pre-order now from the OWC website, with shipping expected in early July. OWC will showcase the dock at COMPUTEX TAIPEI from May 20-23.

Apple today sent out invites for an experience in Los Angeles on Wednesday, October 28, and the "Pro and tell" tagline on the invitation likely means that the rumored MacBook models with touch-enabled OLED displays will stick with MacBook Pro branding instead of the once-rumored "MacBook Ultra" name.
The long-rumored "iPhone Ultra" ended up being named iPhone Duo, so speculation that Apple...

With just three days to go until the iPhone Duo is released, Apple is getting ready for the launch. Behind the scenes, the App Store now has screenshots of Apple's built-in apps running on the Duo. We've seen some apps in marketing materials, but images of the ones we haven't seen give us an idea of what it will be like using the iPhone Duo day to day.
Many apps are shown in landscape...

Here I am in 2025 and im still stuck with my old OWC 10-port Thunderbolt Pro dock because no vendor has made a good 10Gbps Ethernet dock since. I realize there is bandwidth constraints and considerations for such docks and that most Apple Desktops now come with a 10GBps option.
I ended going with a separate adapter that costs almost as much as the dock. Is 10GBs ethernet still that niche that its so expensive?
But I'd rather have a nice OLED monitor with all those sockets built-in (including ethernet). No extra power bricks and space taken on (or under) the desk.
Given OWC’s terrible reliability record for such docks (I used to have one and it always failed to connect or provide power to devices), it’s another hard pass for me, despite MR’s constant endorsement of that brand. CalDigit is way more reliable.
