Now, although I said that this is currently the best possible Steam Deck docking solution, I can’t say that I’m 100% happy with our review unit.įirst, the official Steam Deck dock comes with the same power adapter that you got with the console, the 1,5 meter long charging brick from Chicony. If you didn’t already, here’s the order link: Wishes for the Next Model Additionally, availability seemed to jump up and you can get one right now, without any reservation spots or extra long waiting times.
The design language mirrors the device, integration is spotless, and the performance is excellent. In other words, if you can afford the official Steam Deck dock, you’ll certainly be happy with it. Set at 89 USD in the US and 99 EUR in the EU Other than that, by offering regular firmware updates, you can rest assured that all of the potential bugs will slowly but surely get fixed.
Since this is the official Steam Deck dock, it’s no surprise that Valve wanted to make the device future proof. One pleasant surprise that I had within the first second of my review was the firmware update notification. If you need recommendations, you can check out our pick of the best HDMI cables for gaming. This is why I would recommend to get softer HDMI cables that aren’t as rugged as mine. Basically every time I would pick up the device, the HDMI cable would lift the 120 grams of weight without any issues. I own a rugged HDMI cable and the hard fat wires of it just played around with the light Steam Deck Dock. And since we’re talking about TV’s, this brings me to the topic of hard HDMI cables. What I would rather suggest is that you keep your TV or monitor at HZ, that way you’ll mirror the experience designed for the Steam Deck with no issues at hand. I’m not saying that it doesn’t have it’s uses, but 120 FPS gaming at 1440p is nothing more than wishful thinking. Yes, you’ll be able to power a 1440p or 4k display through the Steam Deck dock, but the performance of the games and applications will still depend on how well they are optimized. More than enough connectors for your day to day gaming.
