Like pretty sure with some smart shopping, $350+ tax, the cost you'd spend on this, you could a decent mid-range laptop that could do what dex could do but better (except for gaming), and probably get an app or dock that could mirror your phone anyway to said laptop for the Android desktop os anyway.

How does it go about charging the nexdock and the phone at the SAME TIME? Or it doesn't? You'd have to buy a separate adapter?

When connected to a gaming desktop with USB-C or hdmi, does it work exactly like a normal monitor in terms of latency ? I want to cable-connect it to desktop and use it from the couch like a laptop. Would that be responsive?

Does it need to be connected to a local network to have wireless mode... Or can you literally connect this outside on the bus directly to your phone wirelessly And like always have they allowed you to rotate to portrait mode in mirrored mode so you could have a gigantic cell phone

30hz over wireless is a deal breaker in my opinion. What's the point of even having a wireless option if that's the best they can do?
@danh2716 Жыл бұрын
Because you don't need more than 30hz to send/receive emails and check web blogs.

this should be usable on a PC with wireless display paired and then KB/Mouse paired through Bluetooth

I was looking at this as a companion for the ROG Ally. I am older... And am going back to school and figured why do I need a laptop if I can have something like this and the Ally. But the lack of passthrough charging of more than 15w sorta sucks.

I think it's really cool but 300$ is a lot of money for just a screen and keyboard

using it for the steam deck is the most backwards thing I have ever seen. its brilliant for your phone of course but the steam deck though. plug a portable device into a less portable but cumbersome device and use a controller when vie already head all of that built into the steam deck to begin with. its really 1 step forward and two steps back. the nexdock is to expensive to really justify in most occasions but its still smart.

SteamOS is based on Arch Linux and there's PC Mode in Steam Deck, so I totally doubt it's a bad thing.

we just need laptop with dedicated chip for these kind of thing, a dedicated operating system that manage it. maybe wifi 7 in the future. and ofc, the price, it need to be cheaper.

I wonder if you have the steam dock and the nexdock if it would work. Would love to have the ports on the dock and then just type c out to the nexdock. Could you test this?

Not at $300 for this laptop dock. You can actually get a full low end laptop at this price.

why not just use a portable monitor with a mini pc ? you can find the size you want for half the price of this thing, usb powered by your mini pc.

looks good, im probably being picky but i dislike that chunky bezel at the bottom of the display, screen looks weird to me because of it.

Check the potential typo in the description... "NexDick" seems like it may not be what you intended...
