![]() Luckily, the typing experience is decent.Īs for the screen itself, it's absolutely lovely. I wouldn't recommend it for any form of dedicated handwritten notetaking, but I suppose it works in a pinch for jotting down small things here and there in an app. The touch input works well for adjusting windows or quickly opening menus, though despite the screen's relatively low lag, it's not the most ideal for writing via stylus. It also has a touchscreen, which is nothing short of wonderful when it comes to navigation. Hidden underneath the kickstand is a USB-C 3.1 port, used for input, a USB-C PD/TB3 port for charging the device's 10,000mAH battery, yet another USB-C for plugging in an external device, and finally, a Mini HDMI, for anything that won't take USB-C. Whether or not you like these choices comes down to how you're going to use the UPERFECT if you're looking for something you can swap between use as a DEX machine and as a portable screen for say, gaming, it works wonderfully, while those looking for the traditional laptop style to be able to go full power-user with their phone might be left wanting.īeyond that, as far as features go, the UPERFECT lapdock has just about everything you could want. The folio keyboard is also a little unsatisfying to type on at times, feeling flimsy. However, it can also be incredibly annoying if you want to use it in your lap, as you would a laptop-since there's no hinge to keep the screen propped up, it instead relies on a small kickstand in the back, which isn't the best for keeping the whole setup balanced, unless it's on a flat surface. Plus, it has the added bonus of having everything you need on your phone when you need to get stuff done, all you need is the lapdock, and you can get to work, with all your files with you at all times. ![]() By plugging your phone into the lapdock, it becomes a fully functional laptop, complete with a desktop environment, widescreen app layouts, and the ability to run multiple apps at once. Utilizing the DEX or EMUI technology in Samsung or Huawei devices, these wannabe laptops strip out all the hardware inside a laptop, leaving the screen, battery, and keyboard intact as a shell, powered solely by your phone. Which is likely why I’ve become so fond of the idea of the “lapdock”. Yet, I’m too clumsy to type well on my phone’s keyboard, which is a struggle when my job, socialization, and hobbies all involve lots and lots of typing. For me, their portability factor never makes the other negatives, such as low-resolution screens or high temperatures ever worth the hassle. Having used various laptops throughout the years, whether it’s macOS, Windows, or even an aging one with Linux installed to make it faster, I’ve always found them to be much better in concept rather than execution.
