I have an HP 15z-cw000 CTO Pavilion laptop. I want to buy a docking station for it. I have learned about USB, USB-C, and Thunderbolt3 ports. My laptop has a USB-C port but I keep trying to find out if it supports charging of the laptop while docked. If so I will buy with a USB-c. However ever time I ask HP they never can tell me. They offer a Kensington 3 docking station but that appears not to be connected via the USB-c. Can anyone tell me of the port and also recommend some docking stations to buy?

It is a CTO machine therefore we don't have it specs but it should be very similar to the HP 15-cw0xx machines which have following ports
1 HDMI 1.4;
1 headphone/microphone combo;
1 RJ-45;
2 USB 3.1 Gen 1 (Data transfer only);
1 USB 3.1 Type-C™ Gen 1 (Data Transfer Only)
As you can see the USB-C port is for Data transfer only which is similar to USB 3.1 type A, only the shape is not the same.
