I’m a bit like a proud parent when it comes to the Steam Deck OLED, and only the finest wears will do for my favorite handheld. That includes using what I believe is the nicest docking station you can buy, and if you’ve got your portable PC sitting on the floor or precariously propped up against something that isn’t accessory, I have a Black Friday dock deal for you.
The docking station I use for the Steam Deck is the Baseus 6-in-1, and it’s downto $29.99from $39.99 thanks to aBlack Friday Steam Deck deal. This is the accessory’s lowest ever price, and it’s only the second time it has dropped under $30 all year. It normally ends up sitting at around $35, which is why it’s worth waiting till the sales to pick up add-ons.
With the current discount in place, the Baseus 6-in-1 is down to the same price as otherSteam Deck dockswith less functionality. Examples that come to mind are the likes of Anker’s charging station, which is currently downto $29.74via a Black Friday deal. Both options feature the same number of ports, but the Baesus model has an extra perk that makes it far more versatile.

I’ve been waiting for something to replace theBaseus 6-in-1as my go to docking station for gaming handhelds for a while. However, this dock boasts an adjustable cradle that allows you to position portables like theSteam Deck OLEDat various angles. It also means it’s one of the only options that’ll fit most devices out there, includingAsus ROG Ally, the 8.8-inchLenovo Legion Go, and even unconventional handhelds like theAyaneo Flip DS.
Even if you do end up just using the one position for your Deck, the Baseus 6-in-1 folds into a neat rectangle to make it more compact. This makes it easier to fit into a backpack since you won’t have cradle corners poking outwards, but it also means it can appear more like a USB-C hub if you feel like using a laptop instead. It’s a small physical feature that makes a huge difference in every day use, and I’m here for it.

Of course, all of that would mean nothing if the Baseus 6-in-1 lacked the right ports, but it thankfully has everything you’ll need tohook up a Steam Deck to your TV. HDMI output is a standard at this stage, but it’s got that along with three USB 3.0 ports, 100W Power Delivery via USB-C, and 100 Gigabit Ethernet. The latter port is also in a much nicer spot than alternatives like theJsaux 6-in-1, as it lives on the side of that docking station and can get in the way.
The one thing that could be a deal breaker is that the Baseus 6-in-1 lacks DisplayPort output. That’s not going to matter too much if you use a moderngaming monitoror a TV, but some older PC screens might lack HDMI. If you need something with more output options, you’re best bet is the likes of theJsaux RGB docking stationorValve’s official Steam Deck dock, but both will lack an adjustable cradle. The latter does come with its own power supply and supports firmware updates direct from SteamOS, though, so there are reasons to go with a first party accessory.
