Razer unveiled the Handheld Dock Chroma, a new device built for portable gaming devices like the Steam Deck. The dock allows players to connect their handheld of choice to an external monitor, as well as connect additional accessories through USB ports. It does not have a release date yet, but it will retail for $80.
The announcement is part of Razer’s CES 2025 lineup, which featured multiple gaming announcements. That’s become standard for the hardware maker, who previously revealed its Razer Edge handheld at CES 2023. While it didn’t reveal any new gaming devices of its own this year, the Handheld Dock Chroma continues the company’s push into the portable PC space — this time by creating an accessory for its competitors’ devices.
Recommended VideosThe Handheld Dock Chroma is a bit like the Nintendo Switch’s TV dock, but for devices like the Steam Deck or Asus ROG Ally. Players can place their handheld onto the adjustable stand, which features an anti-slip rubber mat to keep devices in place, and plug it into the dock via the charging port. From there, the device can be connected to a TV or monitor via an HDMI 2.0 port on its backside. The device can then output games at up to 4K at 60 frames per second (fps)(.
The back of the dock also includes an Ehernet port to enable wired internet play on handhelds, as well as three USB 3.0 ports. The latter allow players to connect external devices like keyboards, mice, or wired controllers to their device. As for power, the dock includes a 100-watt passthrough.
As you might expect from Razer, the dock also features RGB lighting that emits from its underside. That can be toggled with a button on the side of the dock.
