Editor's Notes & Price Research

Written by
This dock has the ability to act as a hub for a wide range of devices that support display output over USB-C. Using it along w/ the travel adapter set, and the Covert Dock replaces almost three devices, rather than just the Nintendo Switch Dock. For more detail reviews on this product, visit TheVerge, TechCrunch, NintendoLife or refer to the forum thread for more details - Discombobulated
Good Deal?

Nice alternative dock for switch. Great for travel and fairly well regarded as far as third party accessories go. Read about a lot of issues with third party Switch docks frying systems. This started as a kick starter campaign and I believe this is the cheapest price since the kick starter.

To get deal add to cart and use code "1-UP" for an extra 15% off. Should knock it down to $55.25 Now $59.50 with free shipping. I got this code by signing up for their email group (a pop up will ask for your email when you first visit the sit).

I do not believe this comes with HDMI cable just the USB-C cable to attach to switch, just the wall plug dock unit. You plug your Switch into the wall/plug unit and use the HDMI output to your screen. Excellent for travel or using on screens other than your main set-up.

This one is known to be one of the safe docks. And you are missing the point of this product. It is supposed to be travel friendly as opposed to carrying the bulky box around.
I think there has been known issues with 3rd party docks bricking the switch. The Genki one is suppose to be one of the safe 3rd party options. Although this price is still more than I'm willing to pay.
I got this dock last month and it works great. No problems so far!

Thanks, was able to order and needed something a little smaller for the kids' switch when in the move.

I recommend this much cheaper alternative https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B089N6YFCC/
Why is this post downvoted so much? Is the linked alternative poor quality/bad in some way?

$55 to fry my switch? No thanks. You can pick up official docks refurbished from gamestop or Nintendo for about the same price or cheaper gamestop had them on sale for $20 around the holidays and Nintendo has them for $40 regularly but Nintendo doesn't include the AC adapter for some reason.

Thanks op. Been eyeing this for a few months now. Didnt pull the trigger for the holiday sale, but finally decided to since I am traveling a lot this year. Code works for the bundle with the bluetooth adapter as well.

Quote from HermanMunchther :
Until a Nintendo update then they make no promises. A normal dock isn't that big anyway and ppl have taken the guts out to make them even smaller. also it's a switch play it in handheld mode if you are traveling for Christ sakes. The ac adapter can be plugged directly into the switch for charging. you don't need a dock for charging only.

I think the point is for the switch to still be playable by multiple people while traveling without the hassle of carrying the box and charger. Playing multiplayer on the switch's screen is incredibly difficult for more than 2 people.

As expensive as this solution is, some people are willing to pay for the convenience.
