Perfect fit for Samsung Dex

I bought this dock to use with Samsung mobile devices with Dex mode. It works great with our Note 8, Note 9 and Tab S4. I highly recommend this dock.

Pros
  • High test results for support and durability
Cons
  • Some bugs

The phone is now a computer

The device works great with my Samsung Galaxy S20 and S20+. I had problems at first, but the Plugable staff helped me to conclude that I was using the wrong key with the blue tooth keyboard/mouse.

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • So far so good

Like this tiny but powerful DEX module

That's missing, I'll update when I'm satisfied that it works the way it should work as a Dex module. Technical tests are in progress. Looks good, time will tell. It has a good guarantee if any problems arise. Good company, since I use their products I don't see any problems in the future.

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Nothing

Reliable little device that keeps my workspace tidy

Totally happy with the purchase. All of the devices I use are USB-C, so being able to easily switch from my gaming laptop to my Samsung Note 10+ or Microsoft Surface Go and use peripherals on all three is great. Also, it looks pretty slick on my design.

Pros
  • Impressive
Cons
  • Updates available

Be careful! Best in Computers & Accessories

- It takes a while for your smartphone to connect, sometimes you have to flip the USB-C cable and then plug it in (why?) - It can ruin your phone without interrupting connecting and disconnecting when attempting to charge (can cause phone overheating!) - Continuous notifications about connecting to device, phone had to restart to stop displaying and stop overheating! - Couldn't get an ethernet port to work and connect to my phone (Galaxy Note 9). - Charging slow but works - Can use Galaxy Dex…

Pros
  • This is amazing
Cons
  • No automatic connection

Works fine but LED stays on

Works great with my Galaxy S10e for Dex. All ports including Ethernet work perfectly. Other docking hubs I've seen/tried have short short cords to connect your phone to, but this adds up to a good 3ft, making it easier to use for actual phone calls. But I don't understand the need for constant (and bright) LED lighting around the base of the device that doesn't provide any functionality. It's useless and distracting, especially in a dark room. 1 star for adding a silly feature nobody wants…

Pros
  • Handy feature
Cons
  • Some cons
