You could try the Dell WD15 - no thunderbolt ports but they have HDMI ports.

There's also this one which I've seen recommended around the sub as a replacement to the TB 15.

Are you looking for a multiport adapter or a USB dock? I think most adapters you'll find will work, but the key to finding a dock, as far as I'm aware, is DisplayLink (pluggable) not DisplayPort-alt (WD15) if you want multiple displays.

Sidenote, if anybody knows where to find a cheap HP Elite USB-C Docking Station let me know.

I actually got it from Amazon. Ordered it last Friday and quickly noticed that it was pulled. Not sure if it's a inventory problem, because the device certainly works. I'm on day 2 without a single issue.

Alternatively, they have a single display version for users that won't ever need more than the standard extended display.

I'm going to put it here in public. I have not ordered it yet, but everything I have seen shows it is TB3 with PD compatible while also opening up another TB3 port. I think I am going to use this to put the Node on the floor so I can keep my desktop clean and have my 3D printer, etc.

It sounds to me you're talking about a docking station.

Something like this: https://www.amazon.com/Plugable-Specific-Chromebook-Thunderbolt-Supported/dp/B01FKMN1BW

(Just an example. You should research and find one you like).

It takes USB-C in from your laptop, and outputs HDMI, old USB, audio, etc., to your I/O devices, and will power your laptop while you are hooked up.

I'll believe it when I see it.

In the mean time, I purchased Plugable's dock which has worked PERFECTLY. Couldn't recommend it enough,

Is passthrough charging possible at all while also acting as a USB host (like for a flash drive or gamepad)? I see this done all the time on USB-C laptops, but I can't find any accessories that support this on the 6P or 5X.

Some examples:

  • dodocool USB-C hub with charging port: This works fine on XPS 13 and Chromebook Pixel laptops, but on Nexus phones, Android prompts me to either charge itself (can't use USB ports) or power the connected device (USB ports work but can't charge). I believe the problem here is that the hub doesn't actually power the USB ports by itself, unlike normal powered hubs, which the Nexus can't handle.
  • Plugable USB-C Docking Station: This works great with XPS/Pixel laptops. It can fast charge my Nexus phones on the host port, but the USB and Ethernet ports don't work at all. I know the HDMI port can't work because Nexuses don't support USB Alternate Mode.
  • Anker Powered USB Hub: I wish there was something like this that connects to and charges a USB-C host.
  • Superbook Kickstarter: This claims to be able to charge USB-C phones while using the USB OTG, but it's only a Kickstarter right now so I have no idea if this will actually be possible.

    Basically, no matter what accessory I use, the "lsusb" terminal command returns nothing when my phone is charging. I've tried both stock Android and Cyanogenmod 13, but not the Nougat preview.
