      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.

            @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.
