HI
long long time reader 1st time posting I usually found my answer on the form but I have one question that I cannot find answer to

I have the Nintendo switch 4.1 for about six months and I use it around the house I have the Nintendo dock in my room and I was using the Nyko dock and other Nintendo dock in the 2 living room now that I've updated to 5.1
I want to get a new dock in case something goes wrong with the Nyko dock so I want to know if anyone has tried the new docs that are compatible with 5.1 ?
I've seen mixed reviews on the insignia dock some say it works on 5.1 with official Nintendo AC adapter some Say it doesn't ? I found 1 that said it's compatible with 5.0 has anyone tried sorry can't add link google
Type C to HDMI Adapter for Nintendo Switch, MoKo 3 in 1 HDMI & USB & Type-C Mini Converter Cable Dock for Nintendo Switch - Black
I really don't want to buy a third official dock it's so big want one so I can travel with small and compact

THANK

To be 100% safe I would sacrifice or buy a new official Switch Dock and transplant it's internals into this: https://www.amazon.com/BASSTOP-Portable-Nintendo-Replacement-original/dp/B071YVC3NJ/. That was you are still using the Nintendo Dock's hardware, but in a portable dock. I am planning on doing this myself.

A few weeks ago someone posted this dongle:

http://www.yesojo.com/dongle

Unfortunately I couldn´t find any information about the compatibililty with the latest firmware...

For me it looks really promising, I was thinking about preordering it
It's already available on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/BASSTOP-Portable-Nintendo-Replacement-original/dp/B071YVC3NJ/... with no questions or answers, zero reviews, not not a single mention of supporting 5.x consoles without bricking. I would stay away from this, especially at $50.

It is made by YesOJO, the same people who made the Nintendo Switch exclusive Projector (there are some Youtube videos reviewing it).
I´m not saying that this alone makes them trustworthy enough for buying the dongle, but since it´s not their first product for the switch I would consider buying it after some positive reviews are available for it.
