My Steam Deck rarely leaves its official dock. My old desktop's harddrive died so I thought to use the Steam Deck as my main PC until I picked up a new HDD. Fast forward a month and the Steam Deck is still my main PC; I've switched from Windows to Steam OS and I'm happy to be here. :)

I refuse. 7 inches is definitely enough, I’ve been told.

Underrated combo: Steam Deck Dock + Old Steam Controller
They fit each other so well it's a shame they don't make the controllers anymore

Love my steam deck. I have a high end desktop and find i do more in my living room (rather than my home office) with the steam deck! Finished Kakarot on max settings, Finished RDR2 on High settings, working on BG3 on Steam Deck with Streaming.

I’m buying a Steam deck LCD today for like 250. And I’m gonna be letting it sit on the dock using it as a a PC and for gaming. A little embarrassing but I didn’t know the Steam deck existed until like last month and it fits my soul since I live in different hotels for work. Always on the go!

One thing reviewers don't mention is how inflexible these docks actually are (those with a cradle and a short usb-c cord attached to the dock.)... Because once you dock it, you render the Steam Deck input useless, requiring external peripherals to interact with the device. Either a computer mouse+keyboard setup or external controllers. The solution I find most comfortable and flexible are docks that offer an actual USB-C port where you can attach ANY length of usb-cable you desire. That way I can use a 3m cable and enjoy playing on the Steam Deck in my hands, with the inputs I love, while still getting the benefits of playing on a big screen.

I had a nice, all metal dock off of Amazon for $19 with more ports than the official dock, then returned it and ordered the official dock just because it gets updates from time to time, also jsaux makes a nice metal piece that goes right over the official dock so that you can still dock your deck with any case on your deck for like $13

If you are playing while charging, the battery backup will take a huge hit.

If you play connected to a tv in that case- a console or pc makes more sense.

I misread your channel as 50, 000 subscribers because your production quality is really high. Videos are great.

This video will be the deciding factor in me buying a dock and an Xbox elite controller right now!

Do you have a cat by chance? And does said cat chew on your charging cables?

I heard many conflicting information about the Steam Deck Dock. Some say it's safe to use forever, others say that it will degrade the battery faster if you let it docked for too long. I have a Nintendo Switch that I bought on launch day, and I commited every sin of battery preservation, even letting it on the dock for months, and the battery still works perfectly. How is it for the deck? It battery degradation something I should worry about?

For me, it's just the final reason to get the dock. It NEEDS a home...

I’m just not crazy about the price, especially when I’ve seen cheaper with the same offers.
