It’s a simple adapter USB-C male to female, in an angle, making the cable go behind the Deck, so it doesn’t wiggle on top.
(it’s not quite the same; one of their connectors is a shrouded socket)
Be aware that most of them are too tight and bend the port if you have even the slimmest case on the Steam Deck.
Can you clarify what the problem is that this solves? Your charging cable wiggles too much when it is plugged into the top? If so, I don’t appear to have that issue at least that I’ve noticed.
It just changes the direction of the cable so instead of sticking straight up the cable gets redirected and now is nearly behind the deck and flowing down.
Where it’s going to be bent by the table or whatever it’s resting on anyways?
Presumably the hand grips on the deck keep enough of a gap under the deck to keep this from being an issue.
I honestly do not understand the problem this solves
I bought a 90° USB-C cable.
And I LOVE that USB-C is uni-directional.
I tend to buy 90° connectors for all the things and it’s such a treat that USB-C is well designed.
There’s also a massive scandal with USB c now that more devices and phones are using higher wattages and the vast majority of cables on the market are e-waste that doesn’t meet the actual USB-C specification.
While that’s not the fault of the spec designers, one could argue that the massive failure to regulate has resulted in fire risks in every home.
Bro is misinformed on basic reality 😭
