Confirmed with

  • Notebook (generic)

    Some laptop battery/power controllers require an exact 60W profile to begin charging — because this dock uses the older PD 2.0 standard, its negotiation can destabilize charging on laptops with strict power-profile requirements, resulting in no charge at all.

  • Steam Deck

    A user reports occasional use for power and Ethernet, but describes it as "prohibitively unreliable" long-term — it works initially but drops out after intensive/sustained use, likely due to insufficient cooling.
