I don’t think there’s ever been a Nintendo Switch accessory that I’ve hunted down as much as the Genki Covert Dock. This is a seriously impressive piece of tech that combines the functions of a dock with the power of a portable charger into one travel-friendly adapter. It’s a mainstay of my own personal Switch setup, but it only ever goes on sale during major sales events like Prime Day.
You get everything you need straight in the box (barring the HDMI cable to actually connect to a TV), with a USB-C cable and a selection of different power outlet adapters. That’s for the true traveler, but I find the Covert Dock just as handy when making the long trek from one room to another. This is an official Prime Day deal, so it’s exclusive to Amazon’s Prime members, and will run out on October 9.

Should you buy the Genki Covert Dock?

I find myself recommending theGenki Covert Docknearly every year - and the latest iteration doubles down on what made the original so compelling. You’ve now got full 45W power output for a nice speedy charge, and support for 4K displays as well. That’s not going to bother the Nintendo Switch’s 1080p display too much, but will be handy if you want to cast other devices to agaming TV.
Those who regularly take their Nintendo Switch on the road with them will find the best value here - especially if you regularly find yourself staying in hotel rooms. Simply connect the HDMI to the dock, the USB-C to your console, and you’ve got big-screen Switch play wherever you are. I mostly use mine for moving between the living room TV to another room without having to unpick all those cables around the main dock itself. However, it’s got me out of many a Mario Kart 8 jam at friends' places as well.
There’s also the question of the Genki Covert Dock Mini. This is a smaller option which won’t bulk out your carry bag so much (and is currently on sale for$39.99 at Amazon). You drop the USB-A functionality on this model, though, and charging is limited to 20W. For the sake of $8 I’d recommend most players go for the full Covert Dock, though if you’re particularly concerned about packing space the Mini is still a solid option.
