If you’ve ever tried to pack a Nintendo Switch, a Steam Deck, and a mess of cables into a carry-on, you know the struggle is real. Enter Avermedia’s new duo: the Core Go and the Elite Go.
The Core Go is essentially a Swiss Army knife for your handheld. It’s a USB PD charger that doubles as a compact dock, offering 4K60 HDMI output and extra ports for your controller or mouse. It’s sturdier than the bargain-bin third-party docks but cheaper than Nintendo’s official version. If you’re a frequent traveler, this is a massive win for saving desk space.
Then there’s the Elite Go, which adds a built-in (albeit budget) capture card for an extra $40. It’s a niche play—perfect for a cramped dorm room where every inch counts—but you might be better off buying the Core Go and a separate capture device to save a few bucks.
The bottom line:
- Get the Core Go if you want a reliable, tiny travel dock.
- Skip the Elite Go unless you truly live in a shoebox and need everything in one plug.
