Dockcase has a new docking solution in the pipeline, with which it is targeting handheld gamers and those who own a Steam Deck in particular. It features a built-in touchscreen that is said to make configuration a breeze.
Dockcase now has a new docking solution on offer, the Chizha. This model is clearly aimed at owners of gaming handhelds, the Steam Deck in particular. Designed like a stylized mountain, the system basically holds the Steam Deck securely in place and expands its storage space and connectivity.
The 212.4 x 178.7 x 90.1 millimeter docking solution is equipped with a wide range of ports. Firstly, a USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C port is used to connect the gaming handheld. HDMI 2.0 is available for video output and can also output 4K material at 60 FPS. Audio signals can be output via an optical output. A Gigabit Ethernet port is on board for those who prefer a wired internet connection. Further ports include two USB 3.2 Gen 2 ports in Type A and Type C, as well as USB 2.0. USB PD with a power output of 100 watts is supported.
The system can accommodate an SSD up to M.2 2280 format, and cooling is also provided using a 40mm fan. A touchscreen is integrated, making it easy to adjust the settings. Information on pricing or release is still pending.

I have been active as a journalist for over 10 years, most of it in the field of technology. I worked for Tom’s Hardware and ComputerBase, among others, and have been working for Notebookcheck since 2017. My current focus is particularly on mini PCs and single-board computers such as the Raspberry Pi – so in other words, compact systems with a lot of potential. In addition, I have a soft spot for all kinds of wearables, especially smartwatches. My main profession is as a laboratory engineer, which is why neither scientific contexts nor the interpretation of complex measurements are foreign to me.

Growing up in regional Australia, I first became acquainted with computers in my early teens after a broken leg from a football (soccer) match temporarily condemned me to a predominately indoor lifestyle. Soon afterwards I was building my own systems. Now I live in Germany, having moved here in 2014, where I study philosophy and anthropology. I am particularly fascinated by how computer technology has fundamentally and dramatically reshaped human culture, and how it continues to do so.
