    Still on the fence about buying a dock. How does JSAUX quality compare to valve?

    I can’t imagine playing anything without the trackpads and my original steam controller has been lost in the void of moving.

    Reeaally hoping they announce the steam controller 2 with square trackpads.

      I honestly wouldn’t bother with the official Dock. I’m sure it’s a good product but it’s a bit pricey and doesn’t offer much over third-party ones.

      What I would be careful of is potential malware in the cheap Chinese docks. I plugged one into a packet sniffer and it was attempting to poll my network and connect to weird IP’s (and that traffic was NOT from the Deck as it wasn’t connected). These things could be more than just dumb hubs internally.
