AYN Odin 2 Super Dock overview
We start the AYN Odin 2 Super Dock review with a brief unboxing and overview of the features. Inside the box is a user guide which is in English and Chinese. And we have the AYN Odin 2 Super Dock itself. It measures around 4.9 x 3.7 x 1 inches (12.5 x 9.5 x 2.6 cm ) and weighs around 252g.
On the front we have the docking slot with a USB Type-C which goes into the AYN Odin 2. On the left are two USB 3 ports, on the back is the power LED, USB PD charge port for up to 100W charging, a HDMI 2.0 port and gigabit Ethernet port. And on the right side are two USB 2 ports for a keyboard and mouse for example.
The top of the dock lifts up to reveal a slot to install a SSD. It is compatible with m.2 NVMe M and B+M key, as well as SATA B+M key in 2230, 2242/2260 and 2280 sizes. It simply slots into place and then is held down with a small rubber screw thingy.
Using the AYN Odin 2 Super Dock
As part of our AYN Odin 2 Super Dock review we will cover setting up and using it. Using the dock is very easy, connect any cables and peripherals you want to use. If you want output to a TV then connect HDMI, wireless controller dongle, keyboard and mouse dongle and so on.
Once you are ready, dock your AYN Odin 2 and power on. After a few moments it should appear on the TV. If your AYN display is blank, you can go into the Retroid settings to leave the display on if you prefer seeing on both at the same time.
If you are using a new SSD, go into the Files app, choose the storage from the side menu. Click on the three dots and then Storage Settings and you can format it for Android there. You can copy over any files to the new storage such as more games, you can never have enough, plenty of space for movies, music and more.
The AYN Odin 2 Super Dock is a great accessory if you enjoy gaming while on the go and chilling out on the sofa with a wireless controller. You get up to 4K 60Hz on your TV, pass through charging, more storage space, wired internet connection and more.
Compatibility with Odin 1
As a note it is also compatible with the AYN Odin 1, the Lite model does not support video output over USB, but everything else works fine. The Odin Base and AYN Odin Pro models support video over USB and everything also works great.
