The Lenovo ThinkPad T14 Gen 3 is now a year old, but it's still plenty powerful and modern. It packs in 12th-generation Intel Core vPro and AMD Ryzen 6000 PRO processors, a 14-inch 16:10 display, and more. Like many great ThinkPads, the connectivity is also pretty solid. It includes two Thunderbolt 4 ports on the Intel models, two USB Type-C (USB 3.2 Gen 2) ports on the AMD ones, an RJ45 Ethernet port, a SIM card slot, and more. If you're planning to use it at your desk, though, you'll probably want to consider a docking station to increase the number of ports. We did the digging, and found some of the best docking stations that are available to purchase right now:

A recap of the best docking stations for the ThinkPad T14 Gen 3

While all the docks mentioned in this collection are great options to consider, the official Lenovo Thunderbolt 4 dock is great if you have the Intel variant of the ThinkPad T14 Gen 3 with Thunderbolt ports. Any Thunderbolt 4 dock we've mentioned should work fine over USB-C, too on the model with AMD chips, though you won't get full bandwidth and support for extra displays.

This is why I've suggested the Anker 575 USB-C docking station as a backup. If your budget is tough, though, a simple dongle like the Acasis US-C Hub is great. Whatever you might be looking for, there's a dock for you.
