Still on the fence about buying a dock. How does JSAUX quality compare to valve?

I can’t imagine playing anything without the trackpads and my original steam controller has been lost in the void of moving.

Reeaally hoping they announce the steam controller 2 with square trackpads.

I had the JSAUX HB0603 and Valve’s, and JSAUX is solid. I went for Valve because of the 3×USB-A with 3.1 Gen 2/“3.2”. But the HB1201 is likely better with more 3.1 Gen 2/“3.2” ports, while HB0601 is USB 3.0 only. JSAUX tend to have a more forgiving right angle connector, while you absolutely need a extender with Valve’s to reach a Steam Deck in a case (particularly the Dbrand Killswitch). I also found Valve is better at detecting 4K resolutions in Desktop Mode, while JSAUX just goes into 1920×1080, which can be preferable (4K is very illegible). On the other hand, I absolutely did not like JSAUX HB0603 being “better” constructed out of aluminum, because it easily scratches plastic, but the HB0601 and 1201 might be different with plastic lips.
