Hey all. I was looking for a dock online and noticed a decent amount of third party ones on ebay and Amazon. Anyone tried any, or know a good brand?
I don’t see myself playing on my TV much, just when I have friends over, so I can’t justify the cost of the name brand.
I’ve been using the JSAUX dock since the end of 2022 and have had no issues. Lots of ports which is nice. I recommend it
Agreed. I have 2 of these (but I have the HB0603 version), and the experience has been flawless so far. Make sure you get a power brick that delivers 45W+, or you risk losing video under heavy load. Happened to me using the Steam Deck’s original charger while playing Horizon: Zero Dawn.
I had one of these and everything worked well at first. I then upgraded my deck to a 2TB SSD but the new deck image from Steam seems to have made the USB ports no longer support my external controllers. My work laptop comes with a G5 unit and that works fine with them so I’ve not investigated the JSAUX issue yet.
Reminder that while JSAUX makes good accessories, it’s recommended to buy their products from Amazon or another store, and not actually use their web site.
Email addresses and possible other information used on the JSAUX website were sold to advertisers and other companies. It’s not clear if JSAUX is selling the info, if they had a data breach, or something else because JSAUX refused to explain. They make enough good and unique Deck accessories that I won’t discourage people from buying their products, but it’s best to avoid their website even if they have a good sale going on.
Oh interesting, thanks for adding the info. I bought it from Amazon myself but when linking to products and stuff I always use the website as it’s the official source of information and people can then navigate to their preferred retailer of choice to buy it
Seconding this one after a friend recommended it to me. I have two and they are nice and portable. They even work as a standalone adapter for USB devices without the need to power
