Seriously, this thing is bright.
With mySteam DeckorLogitech G Clouddocked it makes them look like true centerpieces on my desk.
The right-angle USB-C cable means the wire covers the top vents of the Steam Deck.
The RGB dock shines bright.
you might turn it in the other direction, but you are then blocking the power button.
Beautiful on the outside, but there is room for improvement on the inside.
It’s worth noting that the dock can be temperamental with specific HDMI cables.
It doesn’t make my cable management any less of a mess.
This isn’t the first time I’ve had this issue.
My car’s Android Auto also has high standards and will only accept the highest caliber of USB-C cables.
Third time lucky, I used the HDMI from my Xbox, and the dock worked perfectly.
Covering the vents seems like an obvious oversight.(Image credit: Jennifer Young - Windows Central)

The plastic build of the docks isn’t great for the money
The Razer Thunderbolt 4 Dock Chroma is a pricier option but doesn’t really tick the boxes of holding your gaming handset
The JSAUX RGB dock certainly lights up a room
