BenQ GR10 HDMI 2.1 Steam Deck Dock - 4K 120Hz USB4 Gaming Hub

In this review the BenQ GR10 Steam Deck Dock is evaluated as a portable, performance-focused hub for handheld PC gamers who want a simple way to play on TV or use cloud gaming services. The single biggest reason to buy is its HDMI 2.1 output that enables 4K 120Hz or high-refresh 1080p output with HDR10 while keeping the Steam Deck charged via the built-in PD100W pass-through. It is best suited to users who need reliable video performance, low-latency streaming over Ethernet, and a compact flip stand for living-room play.

Key Features

• HDMI 2.1 output: Delivers up to 4K at 120Hz, 1080p at 360Hz, or 8K at 60Hz with HDR10 for smooth, high-frame-rate displays on compatible TVs and monitors.
• 100W Power Delivery: The USB-C PD100W pass-through provides strong charging for the Steam Deck so battery drain is not a concern during long sessions.
• 2.5 Gb Ethernet: A wired 2.5GbE port offers more stable, lower-latency connections for Moonlight or GeForce NOW streaming than typical Wi-Fi.
• Multiple USB ports: Two USB-A ports and one USB-C port support 10Gbps data transfers for controllers, headsets, and external storage without bottlenecks.
• Flip-stand design: The two-in-one stand flips down to hold the Steam Deck for TV play and flips up to reduce the dock footprint when not in use.
• Aluminum alloy shell: Metal construction helps dissipate heat and keeps the hub stable during extended gaming sessions.

Who It's For

The GR10 is ideal for Steam Deck owners and other handheld PC gamers who want a tidy way to connect to a TV or external display and use cloud gaming services like GeForce NOW or Moonlight with the lowest latency possible. Gamers who value a compact, well-built accessory that charges the device while providing high-bandwidth video and wired networking will appreciate this dock.

It is less appropriate for users who need HDMI CEC control from their TV (the dock does not support HDMI CEC) or for those who require an all-in-one docking station with many legacy ports beyond modern USB and Ethernet. Also, users with devices that cannot accept 100W PD may not see the full charging benefit.
