I’m a big fan of JSAUX. I’ve got a few of their accessories for my Switch and Steam Deck, and they’ve always worked great.

So when I heard they’re launching something new for Switch 2, I was instantly curious. The new SnapPort is a USB splitter designed to give you more options on Nintendo’s next console. But here’s the thing: we don’t know what that top USB‑C port is capable of yet.

What Does It Do?

SnapPort turns one USB-C port into two, letting you plug in a charger and another accessory at the same time.

Two versions are available for $19.99 each:

  • DD0012 – Two USB‑C ports (one for 100W charging, one for data up to 480Mbps)
  • DD0013 – One USB‑C + one USB-A (same specs)

It’s small and neat — 43mm × 37mm × 30mm — and snaps onto the console with magnets.

Here’s the Catch

Even though the hardware looks solid, we don’t know what the Switch 2 USB-C port supports.

  • It doesn’t support video out, so forget to use it for displays.
  • It might support charging and data — but how reliable is that with a splitter?

Until we’ve tested it after launch, this is all guesswork.

Would You Even Use This?

This feels made for niche setups:

  • Tabletop gaming + wired controller
  • Using the rumored camera + charger
  • Wired accessories like a keyboard or headset

If that’s your vibe, it could be handy. But if you mostly dock or go handheld, this might just collect dust.

I love JSAUX accessories — they’ve never let me down. But the SnapPort is launching ahead of real info about Switch 2’s ports. For now, it’s smart to wait, watch, and test before spending.

Would you buy a USB splitter now — or hold off until we know more?
