[Enhancement]

At the time of my unboxing I heard the provided cables and adapters are pretty much mandatory for regular use. I tried using a reliable usb A power adapter and cable and it wouldn't power on the pocket and dock at the same time. It had no issues powering on the dock alone. But there should be a more reliable array of third party cables and adapters without the risk of concern.

USB-A cables can only supply 500 mA/2.5 W to the Dock and Pocket, and I believe this is by design. They require much more power than this. The Pocket does however charge slowly with a USB-A cable. It is in the Pocket manual that USB-C cables are recommended.

Did you try it with a USB-C PD power supply that can supply more power? It should work with many of them.
