Ports
You won’t have to worry about your boss barging into
your cubicle to steal – borrow – another dongle. The
Elite Dragonfly features two Thunderbolt 3 ports, an
analogue combo jack, a wedge-style lock port, and a
USB Type A port. The Elite Dragonfly also manages
to pack a full HDMI port into its svelte body. We wish
the Thunderbolt ports weren’t both on the right side,
however, as they could impede mouse usage.
