Please note that Hori doesn't sell tempered glass.
The Switch Pro controller price seems too cheap.

hi guys, do you guys have any trouble getting the dock to function when using 3rd party adapter?

That's because it's not supported. The PCB inside the dock "talks" to the official AC adapter, before allowing current to passthrough. The same goes for any third party USB-C multiAV adapters like these, for video and audio:




Nintendo safeguarding its revenue stream, you're imprisoned by their official accessories when it comes to things like these.

Is it confirmed that we can't use third-party​ chargers?

Nintendo being Nintendo, you'll never know, until they release their own brand of powerbanks. From what I've observed, the key to fast charging is to get your third part chargers as close in capability as the Nintendo's own AC charger.

i charged my switch with my fren HP Elitebook charger in training lab b4. seems fine

charging should be ok, We were talking about the dock. u cant use a third party adapter on the dock to make the tv mode work.

oo... my dock still seal in the box

Will you be checking out suitable third party chargers?
If not, i will probably be buying another official charger to bring around.

I'm happy with the Anker PowerPort+ 5 with USB-PD Wall Charger. 15V 1.2A on the PowerPort+ versus 15V 1.25A on the official charger. The only other wall charger I can see that's closely matches the official Nintendo AC charger is the Dodocool 30W wall charger. A Lelong seller in Johor has it for RM176, but he hasn't been responding to the questions asked about this charger, not a sign of a good seller.

The Anker PowerPort+ charges the Xiaomi QB820 powerbank perfectly at 15V 2.5A, versus the Nintendo AC charger charging it at 15V 2.6A (full powah!), that's 38W of power coursing through that USB-C cable. Pretty scary to think that a cable that thin carries that much power, why I always stress the importance of properly certified cables.

Someone wanna be the tester for that Dodocool charger? Another good option would be the Google Pixel 18W charger, but that's even harder to get.

i didn't read all your earlier post in this thread but does the Anker PowerPort+ able to charge the Switch through the Dock (Switch able to support TV display)?

Got tips on how to avoid leaving the Switch in Sleep mode?
My Switch always end up in Sleep mode.

Im looking for a case for nintendo switch.
Anyone recommend anything for me please
Seems like the only choice in Malaysia are the hori cases

No third party charger works with the dock other than the official Nintendo charger.

Why avoid the sleep mode? It works and it saves battery power.

I left my Switch 100% charged but the next day, it shows that the battery is 84%.
The Joycons were removed when i left it in Sleep mode.

I know this might be silly to ask, I haven't got my switch yet, but I already bought US50 eshop card.. when i login to my account via browser show eshop unavailable to our region yet.. how can i activate the code so I can make purchase before I got my switch..

You got other Nintendo console?
Malaysia don't have eshop. Set your country to countries that have eshop like US.

Is any game running in the background, while in sleep mode?

Otherwise, it looks like battery indicator inaccuracy. I'd suggest "retraining" the battery by draining it to zero and then recharging it back to full, but if it was me, I don't really have time for that. My OCD dictates that I never leave the battery charge any lower than 50%, and I'd find a way to charge mine (inside my messenger bag) while I'm out and about.

For what it's worth, there are reports about these battery % inaccuracies on Reddit and forums. I've not experience any so far on my unit, so I can't say I have any useful advise on this.

Nope.. this is my first Nintendo console.. can just set other region?

Is the AC charger only included with the console?
Can't seem to find in Pro Controller packaging
Yes I only buy the Pro Controller solely for PC

My baby said hi to u guys.. 😄 .. Damn i just destroyed my tempered glass when i,m applying it just now.. Now i,m scared.. Only one left.. Any suggestion guys?
