Come on Valve, discount the Index…
Time to buy an official dock I guess…
My experience with the official dock has been quite negative, it would sometimes not work until the power cable is unplugged and then plugged back - that is with all the latest stable updates for everything. Other people on Steam forums run into this issue too.

I’ve noticed the issue too late for a simple refund process and their support was not cooperative at all.
I recommend looking at other docks instead, will cost you less and work better.
That’s too bad. I guess I’ll 3D print something to hold the deck and just buy an Anker dock instead. I’ve been only playing handheld for now, but it would be fun to hook it up to my TV at some point.
I’ve heard good things about the jsaux dock but I haven’t used it myself so idk
It’s on discount AGAIN?
I really wish i still needed such a device…I don’t really get out and about anymore, so my PC is more than good enough.
I keep wanting to buy it because of the amazing sales pitch, except it provides zero value to me. I already use my laptop in bed, lol… and if I’m going outside, I’m not going to be playing games. It doesn’t even make sense to pack for going overseas because my laptop works great for that. And it doesn’t work very well as a new computer because it’s likely far more underpowered than my other computers for video editing and other work I need to do, but is nonetheless a cool feature.
Not that it matters at all. Valve still don’t sell it in my country.
It’s nice even if you don’t get out much. Sometimes it’s nice to just lay down across the couch and play on the steam deck.
Of course it goes in sale after I just bought one.
Contact steam. I seen on reddit they said they can’t reimburse the sale part, but they can return the money on your steam wallet, takes the sale price and leave the difference there.
Or just contact Valve customer service, I’ve heard they are actually pretty good. I bet they would just refund the difference.
