I am looking for a desktop cradle style charging dock for my USB-C devices (both for my iPhone and iPad). Back in the day, Belkin had a version of it for Lightning devices (actually there was two variants, one for phones, and a wider and heavier for iPads: https://web.archive.org/web/20160920152242/http://www.belkin.com/us/p/P-F8J045/ and https://web.archive.org/web/20180223015546/http://www.belkin.com/us/p/P-F8J088/). I am looking for someting which had all of the functions for the USB-C link (video out, 10 Gbps, 100W charging, Thunderbolt are optional), and ideally has a USB-C socket instead of an inbuilt cable. Anyone saw something similar to theese? Yes, i can use google (and used a lot), and i can use both temu/aliexpress, but i am looking for real life expiriences about the dock/stand charging and data transfer capabilities.
Got a tip for us?

Nevermind, I made something useable to myself. I disassembled two of my old Belkin ones (one for the phones and one for the tablets), and designed and 3D printed a pice of plastic to hold a very cheap USB-C cable from aliexpress. The cable are very crappy (and the connection is sometimes unstable), so i need to find a better one, but the idea seems to be working. These posts are in hungarian language, but i took a lot of picture:
