Product: HP Spectre x360 Convertible 13-aw0059tu
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I have searched the internet and read reviews via google searches but cant seem to pinpoint which docking station to use or if there is even one available for the new HP Spectre 13" x360. I have a work laptop set up, docking to my two monitors as I am working from home (along with the rest of the world due to COVID-19) and really need something to switch between my monitors and audio. I am looking into switch plugs but as my new laptop only has 1 USB port it is suggested to hook these into a docking station. My current docking station supplied from work is HP but the laptop is much older and uses a slimline dock that locks into a plug on the side of my computer that my new Spectre does not have. Can you please recommend me a docking station for my Spectre?

@reggie001, Welcome to HP Support Community!
 

For using the docking station, we recommend you get an externally powered docking station as it wouldn't have to rely on the laptop for it's power source and hence, would provide better performance with an without the adapter connected to the laptop.

 

I hope that answers your concern adequately. Let me know!
