It worked, but there were obvious problems.

Good: Enables fast pass-through charging. The video output was good. My new S10e was immediately recognized for DeX. Aluminum was strong. They seem to cling to the body. The power and link LEDs were very bright, which is my gripe, but those are bright green and red LEDs, straight out of the 80's. It doesn't go well with the sleek look of the design. The small connected USB-C cable is so incredibly stiff that the phone moves around on the table as you adjust it. I couldn't use the small stand I had as an easel, I had to use a tripod with a lock so I could access my phone. This has been happening intermittently with my Logitech keyboard and mouse. It takes more than 10 key presses for the text to appear, it's not a lag, I'm used to it since DOS itself. It was literally like losing the connection and reconnecting the keyboard and mouse while using it. I tried the OTG adapter and my phone has no Kbps issues and neither do my PC and Chromebook. And finally, if I touch anything after setup, the audio/video connection breaks. It didn't reset DeX or lose data, and if the phone was my audio source I would still hear audio. I received this 3 days after purchasing the phone and it gave me an idea of what DeX is capable of, but so many issues made me return the product and try something else.
