Hi there, the TS4 I am using now is lukewarm and the outside temperature is 17 degrees Celsius. If it gets hot to the touch I would contact CalDigit. - Derek

Hi there, the base of the stand is metal, but the stalk part is plastic. I see what you mean with the cable, the issue to me is that the MagSafe cable is quite thick, so if the cable comes out a bit deeper there is a chance the base wouldn't sit flat. - Derek

@@tryandbyte exactly 👍

You're welcome!

I have now bought the mini hub and am wondering can I use the usb A port to connect an Ethernet adapter to access the internet?

Thank you for your patience. No, the case doesn't have the MagSafe magnets built in, it should charge if the puck is close enough but stands / mounts aren't strong enough to hold the phone up. Hope that helps.

The best people to contact for this would be Twelve South directly as we don't sell to India.

Thank you! The MacBook Pro that I use is the 14" model. I don't think there would be a problem using it with a 16" MacBook Pro as long as you aren't an aggressive typist. - Derek

Thank you @MaggieMoxie 😁

@@tryandbyteidk if you mention it but HOW strong is the MagSafe??? I’ve always felt like MagSafe was just a bit too weak from Apple. Cases help, some have EXTRA magnets to strengthen it very much.

Hi sorry, I have been away from the channel a bit. I can't actually find my Apple Sport Band to make the comparison, you may need to ask the Nomad people directly. - Derek

@@tryandbyte Hi, no problem! It´s still unclear but I got a vague answer on Reddit that they are seemingly the same width now. I ordered a copycat band for a cheap price and will see for myself if at least that one is okay. Thanks for the answer, have a good one!

Hi there, it does come with an Australian plug. In terms of AirPods, I think they mean the first generation that didn't have wireless charging capability. We tested it with the AirPods Pro, and it worked, I haven't tried with the AirPods Pro 2 yet.

Hi, sorry I have been away from the channel for a bit - these stands aren't compatible. You need to get the Stand One with the integrated MagSafe charger for iPhone 14 Pro compatibility. - Derek

Not sure on this one, I think they have now transitioned to the Base One MagSafe chargers.

Thank you so much! Glad it was helpful. :)

Hi, if you want a Nomad charger that supports USB-C power then the new Base One range has you covered - it also has native MagSafe support. - Derek

@@tryandbyte No, I want this charger, but with Type C upstream. Base one is completely different kind of charger. It's like recommending a sweater instead of a coat. Those are not the same things.

You're welcome!

Thank you so much Jacquelyn!

Hi Michael, thank you for the comment. In terms of the cases, the one is the video is a Nomad one so I can't comment on the Apple leather cases. In terms of whether the charger leaves a mark, from my testing it doesn't (it could be because the strength of the magnetic alignment isn't as strong as MagSafe). In terms of the camera bump, we haven't heard of any issues with the 13, with the 14 we will need to see. With wireless charging, phones will tend to get warm, it isn't anything out of the ordinary with the Base Station. Hope that helps.

@@tryandbyte Thanks!

Hi, I just had a look again and it doesn't tilt to a full 90 degrees - it still tilts the phone slightly upwards (70 degrees according to Twelve South).

Thank you!

Hi, yes you can - up to dual 4K 60Hz.

Hi, there could be a number of reasons why. If the status LED on the dock doesn't light up, it means that the cable from the TS4 to the computer is connected to the wrong port (it has to be plugged in the port marked 'computer'). Beyond that there could be a number of things - CalDigit support would be your best bet from there.

We hope to have one of those to review soon! - Derek

Hi, yes that is true (this behavior isn't specific to this dock). CalDigit has a utility that helps you eject all the drives in one click prior to sleeping the machine but I don't use it. - Derek

yes! all the time! this thing is a colossal piece of #%$^

Hi Touseef, unfortunately it doesn't support the 9th gen iPad. - Derek

Thank you Zachery, glad it was helpful.

Not easy at all! I am still struggling with consistency (balancing it with my day job and all).

Hi Martin, thank you for the comment. I personally haven't come across the noise issue with the TS4 but the environments I work in aren't particularly quiet. As you say, the Element Hub only gives you USB-A and Thunderbolt ports, which defeats the purpose if you want the extras like Ethernet and SD card slots - so I would probably rule that out unless those ports are enough for you. I'd probably still lean towards a TS4 if I am getting a new dock. CalDigit are working on some firmware updates (there is supposed to be a macOS updater coming soon - but it isn't available as of now). It could be worth waiting to see if the situation improves. I've never used the OWC docks, so I can't comment on them. Let me know if you have any other questions. - Derek

@@tryandbyte Thanks, appreciate your input.

I just ordered my M1 Mini and I chose the following dock: Satechi Type-C Stand & Hub, Amazon ASIN B097CJMY9M There's also the Qwiizlab USB Hub. Good reviews here on UA-cam and Amazon.

@@herrwarmduscher5204 Thanks for the input, I went with a TS3+ which I got at a very nice discounted price, the hub is great as I am not a power user so it is more than sufficient for my needs, if I had had to pay full retail I think I would have gone with TS4, but my TS3+ was over £100 cheaper and that’s a big saving.

@@martinjn2920 Good choice! The TS3+ is probably a lot more practical since you can use it with other Macs due to the small form factor. The Satechi is very specific for the Mini. I'm also thinking about another dock for my 2019 Intel MBP 16". Have you tried the TS3+ with an Intel Mac by any chance? If so, how well it work with two monitors?

Hi Mauri. You'll need to make sure the 5K monitor is one supported by the TS4 though (for example, a dual 5K setup doesn't work with the LG UltraFine 5K). If it isn't the LG then I think it should work. I'd check with CalDigit to be sure. - Derek

Hi, right now the ETA is July. You can sign up for email alerts on the product page.

No problem, thank you for your support Ed!

Thank you so much!

Thanks Dave! It is a Nomad Sports Strap in Lunar Grey. -Derek

Hi! Sorry we only ship products to Australia and New Zealand. You'll need to contact SwitchEasy to find an American stockist.

Hi Maggie! This stand only comes in space grey. 😁

@@tryandbyte thank you!

Hi Miguel, thank you! It is a Moment Thin Case with MagSafe in Olive (mine is for iPhone 12 Pro Max, it is available for the 13 as well).

Hi Danielle, I'd say it would be the unique design (being in a customisable photo frame).

@@tryandbyte hmmmm🤔

Hi George, that is strange. In this video I am using it with an iPad Pro 12.9 and for the most part it held pretty well with the base - the desk clamp is good for a bit of extra stability. I am glad you managed to get a refund though.

Same problem was mentioned in the video: ua-cam.com/video/p47q6VWAuy8/v-deo.html Moreover like I said there also: No place for your Apple pencil. This seems a serious design flaw to me. Ge magnetic I would say.

Erratum: No place for Apple pencil in landscape mode

Hi Edward! The case is actually a Nomad Leather Rugged Case, what you can see from the front is the TPU protective bumper portion of it (the back is brown leather).

Hi Jonathan, you're right - sadly these are one size fits most. IIRC the Apple bands come with two sizes in the box.

Hi Valerie, it doesn't as it requires a MagSafe compatible iPhone (which is currently the iPhone 12 and 13).

Thanks Brandon! Do you mean if the receiver will fit with a Moment case on the phone? I don't have the DJI Mic but I doubt it, if their other devices are anything to go by (like the Osmo Pocket) there isn't that much clearance with the Lightning connector. In saying that, this could be a good reason for me to buy the DJI Mic..

Thanks Mankit! To answer your questions. 1. I work off a script that is condensed down to dot points - and I just glance at it every once in a while (and cut it out in editing). 2. Filiming takes 1-2 hours (it depends on whether I need extra product shots). Editing is double the filming time (and more if it needs a lot of titles and graphics). 3. The M1 Air is fine for video editing processing wise, storage is more of a concern. Especially long clips in 4K, it can really add up.

Thank you for your support!

Hi, there are ways of using Moment lenses with Android phones - there are a range of cases and mounts available.

Thanks Rob! Trying to make the most of my learnings with you.

Hi, you can pick up the phone easily as the base of the Forte is weighted. Let me know if you have any other questions - Derek

It seems like we will have to do it at some stage - right now it is nice to choose between different charging methods.
