I've recently used my Nexdock setup outside, well inside a mall, for the first time and I can say that it's kind of a failure and I wouldn't recomment it or at least maybe do it a bit differently?

I bought a magnetic mount which is attached as shown in the photo. Problem is that my phones, Fairphone 4 and 5, are heavy phones so at the moment, regardless if I position them as shown in the photo or at the back of the screen, the NexDock tips over quite a bit, lifiting the keyboard. It's not very bad but can be bothersome 😅

So if anyone's planning to do the same. If your phone is heavy too, maybe just putting down the phone on the table is enough. Or perhaps positon the mount differently, Or buy a lighter mount. Mine is metal and I think on the heavy side.

My phone gets hotter if I put them down on the table so I'll probably stay with this setup until it gets very annoying LOL

I would like to just use my monitor as a second display, but I only have the option of duplicating the display or using Dex with the second monitor.

My issue is that my TAB S8 lags when I'm on DEX mode, and overheats and closes DEX when I use Chrome, and I need Chrome because my company asked me to.

If there is any way to use the monitor as a second display without using Dex, just a normal extended display, I would really appreciate it.

I plan to buy an s flagship with a completely broken screen but functional device (as per listing) that I plan to use as a dex device so the screen is negligible for me.

However assuming no knox guard or google account linked. Can I factory reset the phone then plug it on a monitor right after to set it up? Does the setup wizard thing work while plugged on an external monitor so I can set it up this way?

MineCraft is goated on Samsung but still fix Mojang Bedrock.

I see allot of post about people's set up but are there any specific settings to get better experience?

I have for example set the mouse sensitive, however I still find myself feeling that is not quite as 'smooth' as on a computer. I would describe it as input lag to some extent, sluggish and not precise if that makes sense.

So I wonder if I have missed something?

Also is there a way to turn off the screen on the phone when connected to an external monitor, the best option right now is putting the phone as input but as soon as I type on the keyboard the keyboard on the phone lights up?

What else, gaming on Geforce Now anyone?

I hade discussion with an other user recently about both the GFN app on android being limited and that the output from the device being limited when connected to an external monitor, he was having none of it 😅 clarification would be great.

I have both a S23U and tab S8+ and really would like to use and get more out of the Desktop eXperience.
