Antank S3 PRO Aluminum Alloy TV Dock for Nintendo Switch 2

I loved this Antank Switch 2 Dock compatible with Nintendo because it’s compact, stylish, and very functional. The aluminum design feels sturdy. The 4 K HDMI output works great and the connection is stable

I’ve been using the Antank Retractable Dock for my new console for about a week now, and it’s a significant step up from the standard plastic dock. If you’re looking for a premium feel and top-tier specs, this is a fantastic choice, though there's one small detail to keep in mind.
The Pros:

Incredible Build Quality: The Aluminum Alloy housing feels amazing. It’s not just for looks; it helps dissipate heat much better than the original dock, which gives me peace of mind during long gaming sessions.

Future-Proof Performance: The 4K@120Hz HDMI output is the star here. On a compatible TV, the motion is buttery smooth. It really unlocks the visual potential of the new hardware.

Super Compact & Retractable: The retractable design is genius for travel. It shrinks down to a very portable size, making it easy to toss into a carrying case without worrying about snapping any protruding parts.

Fast Power Delivery: With 100W Input support, it handles power management effortlessly, ensuring the console stays fully charged even when running demanding titles in docked mode.

The Cons:

The USB Situation: My only real gripe is that it only has one USB port. If you use a wired controller and an Ethernet adapter or a headset dongle, you’ll find yourself needing a separate USB hub.

Cable Sensitivity: Because it supports such high bandwidth (4K/120Hz), you really need to make sure you’re using a high-quality HDMI 2.1 cable. The dock can be a bit finicky if the cable isn't up to spec.

Final Verdict:

This Antank dock is a must-have for anyone who travels or wants a more "pro" setup at home. It’s sturdy, supports the highest possible refresh rates, and looks sleek on the desk. It loses one star only for the limited port selection, but in terms of performance and build, it’s a winner!

Works perfectly with Switch 2. Provides a clear image and fast charging for various accessories. Compact, easy to carry, and a great alternative.

This is much more portable than the dock that comes with the system, to be sure. It also improves on that dock by adding the option to toggle between behaving as a TV dock or acting as a charging stand and letting you play on the screen. Switching is simple with the toggle button on the back. It also has the HDMI and two USB ports (one hi-speed and one 2.0, colored accordingly so you can easily differentiate). It loses the ethernet port which I doubt most people make use of on-the-go, but you could get a small USB A ethernet adapter to bring along as well and still save space over the first-party dock.

It's light and has a good feel to it with the aluminum body. The retractable stand doesn't pop out but is pulled from the slot on the bottom of the dock. It's easy to push and pull but stays in place well. When the system is docked, it is supported by the body of the dock partially, much higher up than the previous iteration of the dock.

This works great! I wanted a second, less bulky dock for traveling and for our bedroom tv and this gets the job done! Worked seamlessly just like the dock that comes with the switch.

UPDATE: I originally rated this 2 stars due to input lag. Antank reached out and provided another dock to me so I could do some additional testing. It turns out my TV (a Hisense 55U8K) was automatically switching to a "game mode" with the official Nintendo dock but not with the Antank dock. When I switched the TV to the "game mode" manually with the Antank dock, the input lag was gone.

The dock looks great, and I love the slide out design. It technically works and displays an output to the TV.

Works reliably would buy again. However, there is one improvement that could be made, and that is that the sliding segment could expand further to conform to the use of a case as well.
