I found a dual-display USB-C dock with 8 ports - and no bulky AC brick

This is a review of the EZQuest Pro Series USB 4 Dual Display 8-in-1 hub that covers design, performance, and practical usage: it highlights the Intel "Hoover Ridge" JHL8140 chipset, detachable host cable, Fast Role Swap power protection, three USB4 ports and additional USB-C ports, supported video resolutions (up to 8K/30Hz or dual 4K@60Hz), and power-splitting capabilities (up to 77W to host / 23W to dock); the author recommends the dock for users who need a portable, full-featured hub and notes trade-offs such as lack of built-in Ethernet and reliance on a supplied cable, concluding it is a worthwhile $120 purchase for power users.
