Brydge adds three MacBook vertical docks with Solo, Duo and Trio

Brydge launched a new ProDock family for MacBook users on July 14, 2026, adding entry-level, professional and high-performance vertical docks that connect with a single cable. The lineup targets students, remote workers and power users with support for up to triple 4K displays, 140W charging and MagSafe-compatible wireless charging.

Why it matters: - Brydge is widening its MacBook dock lineup from a single product into a three-tier family. - The new options cover basic desk setups, dual-display workstations and high-end multi-display rigs. - The range could appeal to users who want a cleaner desktop without giving up external displays, charging or wired accessories.

What happened: - Brydge announced the ProDock family on July 14, 2026. - The lineup includes the new ProDock Solo, the refreshed ProDock Duo and the new ProDock Trio. - Brydge says the docks are designed to turn a MacBook into a desktop workstation through a single cable connection. - Mat Senton, Brydge co-CEO, said the family extends the original ProDock experience to a wider audience, from students to creative professionals running three 4K displays.

The details: - All three docks use Brydge's vertical docking design and include 10W MagSafe-compatible wireless charging, a 3.5mm audio jack and an SD card reader. - Each dock is available in precision-fit versions for MacBook Air 13-inch and 15-inch select models and MacBook Pro 14-inch and 16-inch select models. - ProDock Solo costs $229 and uses USB-C 3.1 with up to 10Gbps throughput. - ProDock Solo supports one 4K display at 60Hz, 90W laptop charging and seven total ports. - ProDock Solo includes three USB-A ports, two USB-C ports, Gigabit Ethernet, SD 3.0, 3.5mm audio and 10W MagSafe wireless charging. - Brydge recommends ProDock Solo for MacBook Air 13-inch and 15-inch models from M1 to M5 and MacBook Pro 14-inch and 16-inch models from M1 and newer for single-display use. - ProDock Duo costs $399 and is a Thunderbolt 4 dock rated at up to 40Gbps. - ProDock Duo supports two 4K displays at 60Hz, 90W charging and 10 total ports. - ProDock Duo includes three Thunderbolt 4 downstream ports, three USB-A ports, one USB-C port, Gigabit Ethernet, SD 4.0, 3.5mm audio and 10W MagSafe wireless charging. - ProDock Duo now comes in a space black finish, with a wireless charging pad upgraded to 10W from 7.5W and more sustainable packaging. - Brydge recommends ProDock Duo for MacBook Air 13-inch and 15-inch models from M3 to M5 and MacBook Pro 14-inch and 16-inch models from M1 Pro/Max to M5. - ProDock Trio costs $459 and delivers up to 80Gbps of bandwidth with TB5 compatibility. - ProDock Trio supports triple 4K displays at 144Hz or two 8K displays at 60Hz. - ProDock Trio delivers 140W laptop charging and 11 total ports. - ProDock Trio includes three high-speed downstream ports, three USB-A ports, one USB-C port, 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet, simultaneous SD 4.0, 3.5mm audio and 10W MagSafe wireless charging. - Brydge recommends ProDock Trio for MacBook Pro 14-inch and 16-inch models with M4 Pro/Max and M5 Pro/Max chips. - Brydge said any compatible MacBook can work with any ProDock, with display needs being the key factor. - The ProDock Duo and ProDock Trio are available now in the United States through Brydge.com, bhphotovideo.com and Focuscamera.com. - ProDock Solo goes on sale July 25.

Between the lines: - The refreshed Duo suggests Brydge is using its flagship model to keep the lineup current while the Solo lowers the entry price. - The Trio moves Brydge further into performance-dock territory, where display bandwidth and charging wattage matter as much as cable management. - The compatibility messaging shifts attention from chip matching to workflow needs, which could make the range easier to shop.

What's next: - Brydge will bring ProDock Solo to market on July 25. - The company is now selling the Duo and Trio only in the U.S. at launch, with no broader rollout announced in the release. - Buyers will likely choose among the three models based on display count, bandwidth and charging needs.

The bottom line: - Brydge is betting that MacBook users will pay for a cleaner desk and the right amount of I/O, from simple USB-C docking to high-end multi-display workstations.
