Switch Charging Dock - innoAura Portable Compact Switch Replacement Charging TV Dock for Switch & Switch OLED, USB C Power Input Port, USB 3.0 and HDMI Port with Cooling Structure Design

Works exactly as described and frees up a ton of space in comparison to the original dock, while being much more travel friendly.For those interested, the USB port is powered by the switch when it’s docked so no external power is required.

Good alternative to the normal switch deck. Much more portable, and works with any usb-c cable. Feels fairly durable.

**Review was originally 1* as non-functioning at the time of review. Writing that here for honesty**So after the two hours of absolute frustration, this item is finally working. Because the other reviews don’t seem to mention it, I will:If you’re using an official Nintendo Switch power supply to power this dock do NOT put the USBC end all the way in the dock. Because even though it will push all the way in it does NOT supply power.It also made me panic because I kept thinking the problem was at the plug end, as opposed to the dock, so I’d unplug it from the dock to test it in my Switch and it wouldn’t charge! Had to completely unplug it from the wall and plug it back in to get it to charge the Switch handheld (to be clear, this is while I was testing to see if my power supply was working to rule it out of faults). So pushing it all the way into this dock, for some reason, temporarily shorts the power supply. Unplug and re-plug seems to work.If you’re just going to leave the power supply in this dock, as opposed to swapping them in and out, then you’ll be fine leaving it plugged in as you would with the official dock.With the official power supply the dock will charge and display on the TV in the same fashion as your official dock out of box. I will say that it can be slightly fiddly to get your Switch off the dock ((I usually do a gentle side to side wiggle motion to get the Switch off the dock)) but otherwise it feels secure enough.There is a USB port that will charge a Pro Controller (again, I have an official charging cable in use).I cannot comment on whether unofficial cables/power supplies offer a different set of problems/work better.**THIS DOCK DOES NOT COME WITH ANY CABLES. Be prepared to supply your own power supply and HDMI cable. Mentioning this for anyone who missed it in the description**.All in all for the £25 price point I paid this is a nifty little dock. It really is travel sized and will easily fit in your bag/pocket/certain storage cases.

Works exactly as expected for me.So I plugged a HDMI lead from this to the back of my TV and used my MacBook USB C charger to power the adaptor. Connected the switch and it came up on my TV within seconds. We have used this quite a few times now and it has worked every time.Only complaint (but not worthy of loosing a star) is that without the switch on the adaptor, it is very light and doesn’t stay flat because of the cables. However when the switch is placed on it, it’s perfect.A lot cheaper than the official cradle.Oh and it’s not as easy to connect the switch compared to the original cradle as it hasn’t got the high sides to slide it in. Still a great item that is working exactly as described for us.As a test, I tried using this with a standard USB C power lead and it didn’t work! You need a high capacity/power USB C charger. It mentions in the description what is required.As I mentioned, I’ve been using my MacBook Pro power lead and it works fine.Thanks

Firstly please do not buy!!!!Purchased for my sons Xmas and have not used once!! After arriving and failing to connect we soon realised that comments mentioned having the original Nintendo charger. We had already purchased the recommended charger: adapter with this dock via Amazon so straight of the back it cost us £40.Then we won’t out and purchased another official Nintendo charger another £25 and still could not get it to stream to the tv.The light and dock itself seems to power up and the Nintendo charges while on the dock but no matter what we try it will not cast an image to the tv. All in all we spent around £65 to get it working and still nothing wish I had just spent the extra money and brought a second hand official Nintendo dock!!!This is a disgusting product and as a parent I implore you not to waste your hard early money on this tack! Please just go and purchase a second hand official dock this is not worth the hassle!!

This thing is tiny and amazing for travel (which is what I bought it for, remember to use the original switch power cable or equivalent and a decent hdmi cable which do add up to extra space)Only downside is that the output is a little faded and pale so it wouldn't make a good permanent replacement but very useful for a few days away.

Perfect for TravellingCompared to the official Nintendo Switch Dock, this foldable dock is way more compact and easy to carry around. It even fits in one's pocket. If you travel a lot, this could probably be the solution you've been looking for.Ease of UseThe foldable dock comes in a nice box with clear instructions on it. Without any tinkering, it works straight out of the box. Just plug your Nintendo Switch on the dock, connect HDMI and your official Nintendo Power supply, then press the button on the dock to switch to dock mode. No software needed, no drivers needed, no complicated steps to memorize, as simple as that.Btw, people have been talking about 3rd party docks bricking Nintendo Switches. However, it shouldn't be something to worry too much about. I'm pretty sure if you use the official Nintendo power supply, and keep the system from getting into sleep mode while in the dock, you'll be fine.ConclusionNice budget compact Nintendo Switch dock for Travelling.
