Docking Station for Nintendo Switch/Switch OLED, Ponkor Charging TV Dock, Portable Adapter Charger with USB 3.0 for Nintendo Switch Dock(No Cords)

I purchased this dock on March 11th, to use as a dock in our living room. It worked fine for a few months, even though it charges the Switch incredibly slow, so I decided to take my switch on vacation with family. After hooking it up on vacation, dock wouldn't output video but would still charge the switch. I chalked it up to a bad power cord or bad HDMI cable I brought, since I left the original ones at home. But once I got back home, the dock is still not working, even with the cords it had been working with for months. The $30 I spent isn't a lot of money, but I would expect the dock to last more than 4 months. Update: 10/13/22 - The seller has reached out to me and offered a replacement at no cost to me. Once I recieve the item I will modify my rating to reflect the customer service. Update: 10/18/22 - I received the item from the seller, and currently it is working fine. I will update my review to 5 stars, assuming that the first one I got was defective. Kudos to the seller for following up and replacing it at no charge.

I purchased this Switch docking station from Amazon thinking that the worst that could happen would be that it might not work and that I could send it back with amazons impeccable return policy. I couldn’t have been more wrong. After plugging this dock into my secondary television I took my switch off the factory dock in the other room I had been playing in and placed it onto this ponkor dock. The screen turned on for about 3 seconds showing that it was charging, then turned off and will not turn back on no matter what I do. My television never even recognized that it was connected to anything. The Ponkor dock isn’t a dock, it is a switch destruction device. What will Amazon and Ponkor do to make this right? Probably nothing! I urge you to run from this product and if this has already happened to you then I urge you to report incorrect product information on it and get it taken off Amazon!

- DOES charge switch (very slowly) - needs power source - device + buying cables separately = $50 - works marvelously - small/ compact First off, this DOES charge your switch; just very slowly, which is probably to make sure it doesn’t fry it, and BlackScreen your switch permanently. With that being said, having the console in use, drains more battery than it restores, which in my opinion, is fine (given the alternative) This really works marvelously. HDMI alone will not work. To anyone who says it’s defective, it does need a power source (USBC) It’s a great little thing that works great for smaller TVs, and as a second dock. one thing that is a minor annoyance, is that the cables connect from the side, so depending on your set up, that may be something to consider. One thing to keep in mind is... considering the fact that it comes without cables, (as mentioned in the description) it ends up costing about $50 get it up and running. Unless you have extra HDMI and USBC cables already. I feel that over all, it is a bit expensive for what it is.

Can’t say for sure this is the reason my switch now over heats. But I can say it didn’t start over heating until I started using this dock. The dock worked fine. We keep our switch on a dock when not using it. We have a couple TVs we like to use our switch on, and thought it would be nice to have an extra dock for that reason, so we wouldn’t have to keep unplugging the dock and setting it up elsewhere. Left our switch on this one at times just for charging when not using. Also played games via tv with it as well. It worked for both. However, eventually my switch began to over heat during game play. Now it has not been the same since. I stopped using this dock thinking it might have something to do with it, but wasn’t sure. Then went to read the bad reviews on this and saw so many saying “it’s bricked my switch”. Wasn’t even sure what that meant, had to Google the phrase. Apparently it means it breaks the switch so much that it no longer responds at all. Well, because I only have this dock no more than a few days to a week of my time, I think I’ve been able to stop the damage it was attempting to do before the switch became a brick. It it was this dock that ruined the fan on my switch, it managed to do some permanent damage. Who knows for sure, but I’d say with as many similar bad reviews about their switch being bricked, I wouldn’t chance it on this item. We ended up getting another official dock. It’s way too expensive to repair these things or buy new ones than it is just to purchase a working used Nintendo dock or a brand new Nintendo dock. Save your money and be sure you get one you can trust.

This dock is awesome. Currently using my switch I purchased back in 2018 and it works flawlessly. Read the directions, don’t connect weird third party power sources, and if you can use the original switch power block. Charging speed is just as fast as if you were to plug it into the original. Sound quality is too notch and portability is hands down one of the best features. I travel for work a lot so being able to throw this dock in a backpack and not think twice is a huge plus. Also for those of you who think you bricked your switch. Unplug and hold down the power button on your switch for 20 seconds. Release and push power again, it should turn on. This isn’t a dock issue, this is a switch issue when it gets hung up.

Bought for my daughter. It works very very well. Love the price

Works half of the time. The input is wiggly and causes the switch to cut back and forth from console to TV while playing. Not sturdy, and if you want your switch to be charging you need a fast charger to power the dock, otherwise it still drains the battery.

My switch stopped docking with the OG dock. I purchased a new one and even tried that, new HDMI cables, nothing. Purchased this and it works like a charm! My only complaint is that it just feels so loose on the dock and with kids around it makes me nervous. But that's not their issue. The picture is great and no delay! Only con is that it doesn't auto switch my TV to the input, I have to manually do so.

Funciona bien, cumple sus funciones. Lo único es que me parece un costo elevado, solo el tiempo dirá si vale la pena

Es muy práctico para llevar a otros lados y poder gozar de conectividad a una tele mientras use HDMI. Aunque no tiene gran peso y es un poco inestable para la concola que a vista le queda un poco grande. Da cierta sensación de poder caerse. Pero funciona para lo que está destinado y hasta el momento no ha tenido desconexión.

Buen producto, funciona perfectamente bien.

El producto es de baja calidad, y no duró ni un mes funcionando. La verdad no lo recomiendo. Ya que tenía sus dificultades para que lo detectará la pantalla y posteriormente dejo de funcionar

me llego en solo 3 días fue muy rápido el envió, pensé que no funcionaba porque conectaba el hdml y el cargador de pared, pero cuando conecte el hdml y un cable usb a la tv me dio la señal rápido sin problemas, sin duda lo compraría de nuevo vale la pena por el precio. Para los que tengan problemas prueben hacerlo así conecten el hdml y un cable usb a la tv y Nintendo y les funcionara (el usb es para la alimentación de la nintendo y tiene que ser usb tipo c a usb tipo a)
