I feel like mobile games should start including more extensive and clear resolution options, and it's also crazy how slow the adoption of high framerate in mobile games is being, considering we've had high refresh rate mobile screens it for like 3 years now.

[@ETAPRIME]

Yeah, I’m confused on why we haven’t seen this yet. Mobile games are making so much money right now you’d figure they be on top of it by now.

[@fabiosarrica379]

@@ETAPRIME I'd also like to see more console ports to mobile. I don't really play mobile games at all, but it is super interesting to see how games that we're used to see being played on big boxes are able to be translated to tiny devices that consume a fraction of the power mostly unscathed! It would be interesting to see you tackle the new Alien: Isolation mobile port.

[@notyourbusiness1352]

Mobile phones are having high refresh rate screens, but they are centered for display. For games, mobile hardware is still hard to push to super high framerates with very low-powered CPU & GPU compared to consoles or PC. I think it's possible with more powerful mobile hardware. Also, we have temp issues. To not set the phone on fire I guess there are compromises they have to make since phones are too small to have large cooling systems. Allowing phones to push super high fps by game devs can also cause overheating, but power limits in phones should do the job.

[@fabiosarrica379]

@@notyourbusiness1352 While I agree with you, it's also true that not even less demanding games have adopted an option to look smoother on faster displays. And also, why not at least give the option to uncap the fps even if the device can't handle the full framerate? This also plays into what I was saying: if mobile games had more detailed options for graphics tweaking, it might allow folks who prefer it to play at higher fps while compromising detail and resolution. For heat, there's no real concern as the kernel and governor should be the ones responsible in limiting the performance when things get too toasty. Hopefully we get something better than the Gen1 soon

Thanks for the video. What adapter/docking station you can recommend for DeX with support 2k resolution (except original from Samsung)? And is possible to set 2k resolution for 4k Display in DeX.

But then I've tested same adapters with 4k monitor - all of them are able to set only 1080p.

[@nickthaskater]

Skull and Co Jumpgate is the best option to guarantee 1440p output on DeX. 1440p is the highest resolution DeX supports (up to 3440x1440). If you have Android 12 and can install Good Lock, you can unlock 1440p output on any dock/adapter. If you don't have access to Good Lock, get the Jumpgate. The display needs to natively support 1440p otherwise you'll get 1080p, unless the display can natively upscale.

I bought my Moto G100 with about 40% discount this year. Definitely not a budget phone, but we're getting there.

So we not only need phone producers to hop in, we need chips manufacturers to provide the means to do so on low end chips as well. After that, there is no excuse. Snapdragon 680 is pretty close in performance to Snap 835 that powered first Samsung Dex phone years ago.

So running Samsung Dex on phone will see MiraCast network and it shows up in the list. I have tried to sideload MANY software on Quest and can not get it to show up in Dex wireless options. Ideally a Oculus Quest developer would create VR software that "fakes" itself as a MiraCast device and Samsung Dex would see it as an external wireless display device.

I'm still waiting on OnePlus to release something like dex or this

[@dracer35]

Good luck with that. Ive given up on OnePlus. Now they are more like Apple than anything that even remotely resembles what they use to be about. Taking away super useful features and charging more for less so they can get you to buy expensive accessories just to be able to do the things that low end phone can do out of the box.

They do have an experimental desktop mode but it needs to be enabled through developer options and it's very simplistic. I think the last four options need to be toggled on for it to work

@@pallen9044 that's an Android developer feature, not something exclusive to OnePlus.

With the M1 chip being implemented in the iPad Air, I feel like Apple could’ve EASILY added a MacOS desktop mode into the device

Imagine thinking crApple cares about their customers

How are you connecting the keyboard/mouse/game controller? Over bluetooth?

[@nickthaskater]

You can connect with USB or Bluetooth

[@shashankks6708]

Does the phone charge in both configurations? The one with the dock and without

[@CLONE_IX]

Does the screen of the phone have to be on all the time?
