The Switch dock isn't very portable. It's a little bulky and you'll still need to bring along a wall charger. Fortunately, there's a pretty awesome alternative. Right now Amazon is offering the Mirabox Portable Nintendo Switch Dock Charger for only $19.99 after you apply a 50% off coupon code "50Z2VU4B". This compact gadget charges your Nintendo Switch (at its maximum charging rate) and has an HDMI port for you to connect your Switch to a TV. It has all the functionality of your dock but in a much smaller size.
Mirabox Portable Nintendo Switch Dock Charger for $19.99
The Mirabox dock charger looks unassumingly like a regular wall charger. You can pick Black, White, or the iconic Switch Red and Blue color scheme. It even comes with a matching USB Type-C cable. It has three ports: one USB Type-A 2.0 port, one USB Type-C port, and one HDMI port. The USB Type-C port supports Power Delivery up to 31W (plus another 5W for the USB Type-A port). That's more than enough juice to charge the Switch at its maximum rate of 18W. You can charge your Switch even while you are playing it.
The HDMI port connects your Switch to any TV with an HDMI input. The Mirabox supports up to 1080p resolutions at 60Hz, which is good enough for the Nintendo Switch, since it doesn't natively support 4K resolution or 120Hz refresh rate anyway.
The biggest advantage of the Mirabox is that it is 1/10th the size of the Switch dock. That makes it infinitely easier to stow this away in your bag without having to buy yet another larger Switch case. You also don't need to carry another wall charger. As mentioned earlier, a USB Type-C cable is already included, and all you need to supply is your Nintendo Switch console and an HDMI cable. The fact that this deal drops the price by 50% is just icing on the cake.

Get the 65W model for Steam Deck and ASUS ROG Ally
Note that there's a 65W model that is $25.99 after you apply the same code "50Z2VU4B". This is overkill for the Nintendo Switch, however it's the preferred model if you plan to use the charger dock with the ASUS ROG Ally, which accepts up to 65W, or the Steam Deck, which accepts up to 38W.
