PC gaming needed a budget champion and the Steam Deck filled that role at just the right time.

    If you have a cool living room setup (nice tv/sofa/soundbar) the dock is a must have!

      I never saw the point in wasting my money on a dock when it takes me 15 seconds to just plug my laptop in with a HDMI cable and have more power and compatibility. G

        Well, in my case, my Steam Deck is way more capable of running games than my laptop, so the point of a dock would be to play games on a bigger screen. I mean it seems kind of self-explanatory, no?
