Shouldn’t any dock that works via USB PD work for this as long as the lighter USB adapter is rated for enough juice?

For simple reference, cheap SD cards will have speeds around 75-100MB/s a gen 3 NVME SSD(What’s in the deck) Will have speeds around 2500-3500MB/s. (I should mention here that there are very substantial diminishing returns for many many games once you get beyond around 600MB/s speeds and you will not likely see a 3-5x faster load time in most games.)

High end SD cards can reach around 170-180+MB/s Which is about as fast as a pretty fast Spinning Hard drive, but with lower latency(Which is the biggest killer of HDDs, seeking to get the needed data).

Game load times will definitely be worse off of an SD card(Especially cheaper slow ones)

I picked a Samsung Pro 512GB SD card for my deck with claimed 180MB/s speeds. I’ve installed games onto it and even played Nioh 2 off of it. Load times weren’t terrrible, but could be faster. An inconvienence, but a cheap and easy way to double my decks storage and put lesser used games on the SD card.

You can also migrate a game from card to SSD or back easily.

Was extra dark for me as well, I was pretty sure I was seeing some pretty extensive compression effects as well,

Overall a far worse experience than playing native with lower settings/framerate. Also much worse than using something like Parsec on Desktop.

I have rather large hands compared to most people, and the only the part I find not great are the buttons on the back, I have to curl my fingers fairly aggressively to use them and they’re designed to be pushed straight in to the back of the Deck, so they don’t actuate very smoothly when pushing the sides of them.

For reference I have about an 9" span from thumb tip to pinky tip when hand is splayed.

Smells exactly like the Index.
