Pretty good for my Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 9.7
Not much to say but I wanted a docking station for this tablet and I got ethernet, keyboard, and mouse working. The HDMI part is something else altogether, ok but not great. You can plug this to a power bank or to the usual charger though I would recommend the latter.

A Must Have!
This docking station for my Samsung S2 is really great. It allows me to connect a monitor, keyboard, mouse and other peripherals. I can now use my S2 tablet like a desktop making work a lot easier and convenient. So far it has worked flawlessly. Out of curiosity I tried to use the dock with my Samsung Galaxy S7 cell phone but the micro usb cord from the dock does not fit into the phone'system micro usb slot. There must be a slight difference on the dock's micro usb so that it only fits my S2 tablet. I would definitely recommend this dock for your S2 tablet if you want a more convenient work station.

Not correct dock!
You can clearly see that this is not the correct dock. Look at the last port on the left. Its supposed to be the built in charging cable. When you compare the device I recieved and the product picture on the right, You can see that 1. The cable is missing 2. The shape of the port is incorrect. The port shape should be an "L" shape.Clearly not the correct dock.Be weary when ordering.Amazon was great and issued me an instant refund and free return shipping.

which doesn't look as good as it could
As of today, February 18th, 2016 there has been no review on this product. I have had this product for about a month now and have realized that this is very, very new with very little information about it on Google and even on Samsung. I even called Samsung for support on it and multiple people told me they don't know anything about it and finally said they would find someone and call me back; no one has called me back.Test/Review:* Video: Used HDMI/DVI-D cable from Amazon.* I can only get a square 720p resolution on my widescreen monitor, which doesn't look as good as it could.* Overall, it works, but video quality and widescreen use is not good.* No dual views; meaning Tablet and Monitor, it is one or the other only.* USB: I tested keyboard, mouse and USB drive all working through a "hub" from monitor.* Had no issues, works good through USB "hub" on monitor to allow 5 USB ports.* Ethernet: Works great for the Apps that will actually use it.* A few Apps would not recognize it as an Internet source and say you must connect to Internet or use Wireless connection.* Updating System will not work and even updating Apps from Samsung will not work unless you unplug the Ethernet cord.* If using multiple users, this can only be set from main user, so if you need to get an update and the only way you can get it is by turning off the Ethernet, not possible.* By the way, you cannot have both wireless on and Ethernet on, it will continually drop your wireless.* Other: Power is okay, but is at decreased charging time.* Design is sort of okay, there is a filler plastic piece for the thinner Galaxy Tab S2, which seems an afterthought because this is supposedly specifically made for this tablet.* Plugging it in is landscape only, the cord is too short for portrait, which some may want.* Overall, I think the product is okay, was hoping for a lot more, but just okay. I really like using an external keyboard and mouse, which works great. It would be nice if there were more Apps that work with it, even Samsung Apps would be nice. More information on the product and perhaps Samsung knowing something about their own product would also be helpful. The biggest complaint I would have is the disappointing Video, which is something I was really looking forward to. To me, using this to plug in a monitor is not really beneficial as is.

It IS the Correct Dock! And it works as it should with some limitations depending on your Tablet
I purchased this for my S2, but if you research the model it works with some other Samsung Tablets that have a MicroUSB Power/Data Connection. Reviewer ARB is mistaken, it IS the correct dock although Samsung changed the shape of the end of the MicroUSB cable (probably so it would fit more tablet models). See my photos, the output USB cable on the left is built in, just pull on the tab below and the cable comes out. You use your original Samsung wall charger and MicroUSB cable to power the dock (plugs in on the right). This gives you 2 USB-A ports plus an Ethernet internet port while still charging the tablet. Both USB ports and the ethernet port work great on my S2 model SM-T813. BUT, the HDMI port does not work with the T813 because this particular version of the S2 does not support the MHL standard which is required for HDMI output from a tablet. So, buy it for the USB/Ethernet/and Dock/stand capabilities, but check if your tablet model is MHL compliant if you really need HDMI.
