The Hub for Every Device: Enjoy unparalleled compatibility, connecting everything from your tablet to your gaming setup.

Note: 1. Specifically optimized to enhance ROG Ally’s performance, especially using 30W Turbo mode. For an even better experience and to meet the hub’s power needs, we recommend using a charger with 100W Power Delivery.

2. Not compatible with cases featuring a kickstand. Case thickness should not exceed 2 mm for proper fit. Not compatible with AYANEO and Nintendo Switch devices.

3. For 4K@60Hz video output, make sure to connect via an HDMI to HDMI 2.0/2.1 cable (no longer than 15 feet) and manually set your game to 4K@60Hz in the settings to achieve this output. Avoid using HDMI to DisplayPort cables or adapters as they are not suitable for this product. If an HDMI switch is required (an 8K one for best results), double-check that the HDMI cable length at both ends does not surpass 6.6 feet.

4. We recommend connecting your power adapter (45W and above) while using your Steam Deck with the hub to maintain stable video output and device functionality. Be mindful that playing graphically demanding games on high-resolution settings can strain the Steam Deck’s power capacity. If you encounter any latency issues with connected external devices, consider reducing the game’s image quality settings for a better play experience.

    This dock works great with my steam deck, but I also use it with various Samsung devices for Dex mode as well as with my laptop occasionally. Connects with all of them first try without missing a beat, with quality as expected from Anker.

    I just got this charging station, and I really like it. The build quality is great, and it’s really heavy. I hooked it up to my Nacon Revolution PS5 controller and dongle. I plugged it in with an Ethernet cable and hooked it up to a 75″ Samsung TV with a 4K HDMI cable. The picture is crystal clear, and I am very happy with the whole setup. The only problem I have is that sometimes it disconnects and I have to unplug it and plug it back in for it to start working again. I’m not sure if this is a problem with the power supply, HDMI, or the dock itself.

    Works exactly as it should. has a nice and sturdy feel to it and is full metal construction. specifically got this because i didnt want a cheap plastic dock, even if the features were identical.

    Even without the charger, I am content. The quality is good, but somehow, I would expect if it says it can go up to 100W charging, it would come with the charger.

    Golden Review Award: 7 From Our UsersSo I’ve been looking to upgrade my setup at home when I dock my steam deck. A few months ago I purchased a usb-c hdmi dongle to dock my steam deck and switch to my monitor. Purchased an anker one and it was only $19.99. The problem was while gaming I couldn’t charge my deck so it would limited my playing time. So I’ve been putting in hours on Persona 3 Reload in handheld mode and with Metaphor Refantazio coming out soon I felt the need to upgrade my at home setup to allow me to play longer. So happy Anker came out with a dock! A USB C hub is a great alternative and technically this is a usb c hub with a stand. Now be aware it does not come with a charging cord…BUT…to solve that issue either use your steam deck charger which is a 45w charger and it will charge your deck with no problem or purchase a 45w charger. My deck has a skull and co grip on it. The plug fits and the case fits on the stand with no problems. I included pictures so you can see how the plug fits and case. I also included pictures of me using my official deck charger to charge my deck and the previous dongle I was using. I will continue to use the dongle for my Switch. I’m so happy I can play longer. For reference my monitor is a Dell 27 inch curve.

    Golden Review Award: 9 From Our UsersThe product is built well and looks very nice but it’s too small for the Ally X. Works fine with steam deck. If you have an Ally X look for something else.

    Utilis pour docker une console Rog ally. Aprs avoir essay un model d’une autre marque avec des micro coupures d’images, j’ai lu des avis et opt pour ce modle qui me donne toute satisfaction. Le format est compacte, pas de soucis d’image, le port sur le ct est pratique pour les rcepteurs sans fil pour les souris trs bon dock.

    It seems to do everything as advertised. It fits my steam deck with a skull and Co case on it. Its from Anker so I don’t have to worry as much regarding if the specs are accurate and if it uses quality parts that will last.

    El producto cumple las espectativas, la verdad me ha dejado satisfecho, aspectos a mejorar es muy justop el tamao si la consola tiene un case o funda, con lo cual hace obligatorio retirarla para poder dejarla bien puesta en la base.
    la calidad del producto y su construccion 10 puntos.

    Golden Review Award: 3 From Our UsersI’ve not had a bad experience with an Anker product and this one is no exception. It was packaged nicely, build quality is excellent! It does not come with a power supply so be sure you either have one on the ready or you purchase one (I got an Anker 100w charger).

    This dock is Killswitch case compatible. This was my biggest concern but I can confirm that it fits like a glove. I actually fits better than i expected as it has these two rubber pads on the inside of the base that gently clip onto the bottom lip of the killswitch case and it hold very securely. The attached 90 degree usb-C plug also has plenty of length on the connector to reach through the case.

    l;dr: Es el mejor dock que puedes comprar para tu steam deck ya que no tiene ningn fallo que los dems si presentan.

    Contexto

    He pasado por 4 docks en total los cuales han sido:

    -El dock de Jsaux
    -El dock 9 en 1 de Ugreen
    -Un usb c hub 5 en 1 genrico de anker
    -Y por ltimo este de anker ms especializado para Steam Deck

    Devolv el de Jsaux y el de Ugreen
    Tanto el dock de Jsaux como el de Ugreen me han dado problemas como los siguientes:

    -Hay que desconectar y conectar el usb c si inicias la Steam Deck estando ya conectada al dock
    -Problemas con la imagen que se ve distorsionada
    -No funcionan con mi monitor 2k 144 de LG
    -Micro cortes en la imagen

    Este dock de anker (y el usbc hub de la misma marca) no tienen ningn fallo de estos mencionados, ni ninguno en general.
    Es funcional en todas mis pantallas y en todos los estados, no importa si la consola ya est conectada antes de encenderla todo funciona como esperaras que funcionara.
    En cuanto a materiales parece robusto y duradero.

    Por ponerle una pega podra ser entre 4 a 7 euros ms barato.

    Golden Review Award: 3 From Our UsersI’ve spent the better part of a year looking for a dock that works with the Rog Ally that won’t cause audio desync, after waking from sleep or ten minutes after docking the Ally. This is the first dock that I’ve had zero audio issues with, and zero image / video issues with. I’ve bought in a total of five docks from multiple different companies and this might be the final dock for my Ally. While it doesn’t fit the Ally in the Kill Switch case, you can still kickstand the case and utilize the dock, with the Ally sitting slightly more to the left. Now I might eat my own words in a week or two, especially if this burns out like the last two docks I’ve used from other manufacturers, but thus far it’s almost the perfect dock for the ROG Ally.

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersThis arrived in a simple box in a plastic bag with molded plastic to protect it. It included the docking station and a small, not very useful manual. It was in perfect condition.

    The docking station is made out of metal and is quite sturdy. It has rubber pads where you want it to both protect your Steam Deck and also on the bottom to keep the docking station from moving from wherever you put it. I have a soft plastic protector on my Steam Deck and it still fit in this docking station just fine.

    Hooking it up was very easy, just plugging everything in, which in my case is the Steam Deck power cord, HDMI cable, and controller cable into their proper ports and to the TV, then turning the Steam Deck on. Make sure you have chosen the correct HDMI input for your TV. An HDMI cable was not included, but most of us have many of them laying around anyway.

    Pretty much that is all there is to it. I had some problems getting sound and adjusting picture quality at first, but I am new at this sort of thing (mainly play games on a PC), and I had to find where to change multiple settings both in game, in the controller settings, and in Steam Deck settings to get everything to work. Once I did all that it was a blast! Graphics looked very good on both an older Sony TV and newer Visio that I tested this on.

    One thing I learned, I am not good at using a controlled in Doom Eternal! It will take some practice. The nice thing about this docking station, if you want to use a keyboard and mouse, you can!

    So overall I have no cons. It is a very good docking station for the Steam Deck, with many options for connections. It is well made and sturdy, and should last indefinitely. I looks good too! I look forward to using it to play many of my Steam games on TV!

    Turned my Steam Deck into a console! Great option to have!
