        @domubpkm Of course but users usually work around things or comply. It's rare that people act and leave them dry

          I have a few defunct Apple products deemed useless due to outdated software. My Ipad 1 is a great jukebox and I can still go on the internet with it, and no I haven't been hacked!

          (I hate Apple's fakery of charging $$$$ for proprietary rubbish that has limited lifespan, is difficult (very difficult) too repair and the green credentials they harp on about - Apple, I hate you).

          Xiaomi Redmi Note 7.... And more...
          I have too many devices...

            For phone usage (text, limited internet/browser, calls) I found a Pixel 3a to be more than adequate. I don't use WayDroid or other functionality all that much on a phone, the screen is simply too small.

            I noticed some performance uptick with a OnePlus 6T but not really a "necessary" upgrade. The main thing moreso is 'does the UBPorts software support the phone or are there missing features because of the port itself'.

            My current FairPhone 4 is decidedly snappy during use, but what I thought was most interesting is it works quite well with a docking station, even with dual monitors. I have tried both the Dell WD15 K17A and WD22TB4 docks and found them to be completely compatible. The WD22TB4 is significantly faster.

            What I need most is stronger camera performance but Android has certain things on lockdown that prevent some camera potential from being tapped.

              @ezst036 Unrelated but you mean you can have dual monitor with the Fairphone 4?

                  @kugiigi I just had the conversation with @ezst036. I was asking if he manage to extend screen on dual monitors or if he just repeat the same screen on eahc monitor. I understand it was the second option...
                  @TheVancedGamer you managed to extend on dual monitor ???

                        @TheVancedGamer Oh that's cool. I guess you need a dock with multiple video out is needed. Maybe both monitors would work properly if you enable multi-display mode instead of the virtual touchpad mode.

                          Just wanted to clarify,

                          Yes, it was two monitors but they were mirrored, not extended. Makes the second monitor pointless for now.
