Anker’s new 14-in-1 Prime Thunderbolt 5 Docking Station with ring light gets its first price drop today

First deal/$360

The official Anker Amazon storefront is now offering the first straight up cash discount on its new Prime TB5 Docking Station at $359.99 shipped. This deal is also live directly from the official Anker site. You’re looking at the first chance to save outside of some of the mystery box launch promotions very few folks had a shot at, and the best price to date. 

Regularly $399, this might not be a massive price drop, but considering we have been seeing less and less major discounts on Anker’s latest releases as of late, and this being the very first chance to save on its latest pro-grade Thunderbolt 5 dock, we wanted to make sure it was front and center. 

The first thing you might notice about this unit is its sort of M4 Mac mini-like form-factor and the halo ring light embedded into the top of the unit. Albeit a touch gimmicky, I came away quite impressed with lighting action after giving this one a go for review – it’s not got that 16 million-color gaming gear setup, but rather a more classy and subtle vibe that adds a modern touch to your workstation. 

While you can get a complete breakdown of the feature set here, the short form version is that this is a complete Thunderbolt 5 docking solution that can support multiple monitor setups and comes loaded with just about all of the I/O potential one would expect from a 14-in-1 solution at a price point like this:

• Thunderbolt 5 upstream port (140W Max power)
• two Thunderbolt 5 downstream ports
• two USB-C ports (10 Gbps, 45W total)
• three USB-A ports (10 Gbps)
• 120Gbps data transfer
• SD and TF card readers
• AC input
• 2.5Gbps Ethernet port
• audio jack
• HDMI 2.1 or DisplayPort 2.1 port

Everything else you need to know is right here.
