My personal computer is a 2014 MacBook Pro Retina and my work computer is a 2016 HP EliteBook with USB-C port. I'm hoping that since this display supports USB-C that I can use either my personal or work computer with it (and daisy-chain two monitors for dual-monitor functionality).

Can I turn off the charging of the macbook from the monitor (when I already have a full charge of the battery), but at the same time that the monitor is connected and I could work with it.

Hey everyone,

I'm wondering if I can drive this monitor from a USB-C-to-DisplayPort Cable.

I am looking at the upcoming Thunderbolt 3 docking stations, and all of the products announced only have 2 Thunderbolt-3 ports on them. Most have either HDMI or Displayport ports as well, though. I'm obsessive about cables/mess, and only want to have one connection running into my 2016 MacBook Pro with Touchbar.

My thinking is that I can use a USB-C-to-DisplayPort cable into the monitor from the dock, as the specs show that the Displayport on the dock can do 4K video.

1st, Will this actually work? I'm assuming it will.

2nd, Will all of the Monitor controls still work? I love how this monitor has all the brightness/color setting controlled through system preferences, and I would want this functionality to work as well.

Has anyone tested either of these things?

For reference, I am looking at the Belkin Thunderbolt 3 Express Dock HD, and the Henge Docks Tethered Dock for MacBook Pro 2016 (Thunderbolt 3).

Thanks all,

James

This is a high-end monitor that needs to work for some time to cover the initial investment. But the Apple Store only mentions a "one-year limited", which is obviously not enough. And competing manufacturers offer a lot more.

The general consensus of people I've talked to recommend against long-term operation of a MacBook Pro with a "less than stock" power supply. That is, people say you can damage a MacBook Pro 15 using the power supply for a MacBook Air, for example.
So can you just plug the USB-C connector from this display into the new MacBook Pro 15 as a single-plug "dock", or do you need to plug in the MacBook Pro's power supply as well?
