JSAUX reveal new transparent RGB dock for handheld gaming PCs

A new see-through dock for the Steam Deck, ROG Ally, Legion Go, and others is on the way courtesy of JSAUX. Yes, it has RGB.

Accessory maker JSAUX has a wide range of docks available for the likes of the Steam Deck and ASUS ROG Ally — and that range is growing with a new transparent option.

This past year has seen a slew of transparent shell options pop up for sale for the likes of the Steam Deck and Ally — offering gamers a way to customise the look of their portable PCs. This new dock from JSAUX, due late in January, now extends that see-through transparent look to your docking station too.

The new transparent dock comes in two variants (dubbed the HB1201S and HB0801S) — one offers an eight port solution, whereas the other is a 12-in-1 product. Both have RGB of course.

The HB1201S is the more advanced model, sporting HDMI 2.1, an SD card slot, and a 3.5mm audio interface jack. Here's an overview of how they stack up:

This pair of new docks are currently available for pre-order — starting at a nice $69 price point for the HB0801S model, with the HB1201S up at a cost of $99. The full specs and details can be seen on the JSAUX store.

The docks will work with a range of handhelds, including the Lenovo Legion Go, Razer Edge, ROG Ally, and of course the Steam Deck. It's worth noting this dock is not compatible with the Nintendo Switch however.

JSAUX shared that they are expecting shipments to start at the end of January 2024.
