Baseus Technology unveiled its Red Dot Design-awarded Baseus Metal Gleam 7-in-1 Docking Station Thursday. It supports ultra-high-def 4K@60Hz resolution for content output.
The company touted an absurdly low-sounding price of $19.99. “It has no match in its tier with a competitive price of $19.99 since the passkey to access such a high-resolution hub is way higher,” the company said.

The dock‘s HMDI port allow output of 4K content for high image quality in videos, movies and gameplay, Baseus said.
“Why can’t docking stations be as widely recognized as chargers? We aim to bring docking stations into every household!” said Baseus CEO Shiyou He.
