I sit roughly 6-7 foot away from my 4K TV and I think it looks fantastic on the Switch, that was my biggest concern, that the upscaling would be really poor. I was very wrong.
Just turn your current one into a portable dock for about 50p by 3D printing a shell and transplanting the internals.
It much better than the standard dock and very portable.

But I like my standard dock
Then it means unplugging/replugging everytime. I dont want to do that either.
Does this 50p include the cost of a 3d printer
What 3d printer have you got by the way?

I used 50p of plastic on my mates 3D printer. There are also many services that will print and post your model for a few quid.

That takes literally 2 seconds! Once you've used a different form factor dock you won't ever want to use the stock one again.
Do you have the diagram or whatever it is that they need?
That looks incredibly unstable, like the slightest knock would send it flying?
It's much more stable than the stock dock which is very easy to knock over in the front/back axis. Not that it ever seems to be an issue people have come across.
Sure you could triple the size of the base if you need it to stay up if you give it a swift kick but my kid hasn't managed to knock it over yet.
That's for a refund, your warranty for repairs will still be valid for two years with nintendo so I'm not seeing the risk.
Fair enough good deal anyway.
£248.99 at Grainger Games.
Or £289 at Tesco with Rabbids and the comfort grip. Add Odyssey or Mario Kart for another £20.
The Maplin price is alright. Not outstanding.
