DO NOT BUY! – Unitek Switch Dock for Nintendo Switch

Unitek Switch Dock – I purchased the unit I reviewed at regular price and did not receive a free sample.

The unit would not work with my streaming computer. The signal would cut in and out constantly. Tried 3 different known good HDMI cables, no go. Can use it on my television though without issue, but it doesn’t like being used with a PC. Other dock I have works with PC just fine, but needed one with an RJ45. While it works with the TV, the PC was the one I wanted to use it with while attached to the network.

The whole idea was to get it for the RJ45, but I guess I am still searching for one that works with the PC.

(EDIT, Feb 26, 2023)

The unit is now failing when being used with both televisions I have. Again, I am using known good HDMI cables. The picture cuts out and flickers to the point of being unusable. I moved back to the original Nintendo dock and the flickering stopped completely so I know it’s not my cables or my Switch.

I really wanted this to work, but that’s now 2 different after market docks that either don’t work at all or flicker and cut out frequently. Guess I am gonna just bite the bullet and buy the updated Nintendo Dock with the RJ45 on it.
