5 in 1 Switch Dock for Nintendo Switch OLED TV Adapter Switch Docking Station with HDMI USB 3

Back in the MyFunDad labs, Dad and Jackson unbox and test the Rreaka USB-C to HDMI adapter on his Samsung Galaxy Note 9 phone. I was pleasantly surprised with this little device. I discovered the adapter on Amazon looking for a USC-C extender to copy files off of my phone. When I found this magic box with about everything - a SD/MicroSD card reader, 4K HDMI video out and USB hub - I HAD to try it! The adapter worked wicked easily right out of the box. I am super impressed with the Samsung Dex experience. I was expecting only ‘screen mirroring’ and was pleasantly surprised to see an entire different desktop on the monitor. I feel like I have a whole computer with me and I have used it many times at work where the computers are locked down. I can plug my phone in and accomplish any task but on a much larger screen and with a full size keyboard and mouse. I don't have to worry about sites being blocked on work Internet because I am using my unlimited Verizon Wireless 4G. I am able to compose emails for my volunteer activities, like using Scoutbook.com, with a full size keyboard. The Samsung DeX world even turns the phone’s screen as a touch pad. What is also super cool, is when you tap into a text field, the phone keyboard presents itself! I will do a video using those features soon. I have been able to connect a 1 TB external drive to move over 75 GB of videos off my phone so I can edit on my desktop. In the video you will see I was using ES File Explorer. I didn't know at the time that it got banned from the Google Play and Android stores for suspicious practices with ad clicking. That app is off my phone now for sure. I am enjoying Cx File Explorer as my new file management app. The Amazon listing claims to support the Samsung Note10/S10/S10e/S9/S8Plus/Note8/Note 9/Tab S4/S5/S5e/ Desktop Experience,Nintendo Switch,MacBook Pro/Air 2018. If you have one of the supported devices you need this adapter. It will change your life! I have not tried a 4K monitor yet. You do need external power to run DeX mode to a monitor. I dont see that as much of a hinderance since you would most likely have some main power source running your external monitor. I want to try using a battery pack and see how long that will last. In the MyFunDad Studio we check out the RREAKA USB-C adapter to transfer video files from my Samsung Galaxy Note 9 to Micro SD Card. The card mounted perfectly. There were more video files than I expected, so the bulk transfer didn't work. To get around that, I have been able to connect a 1 TB external drive to move over 75 GB of videos off my phone so I can edit on my desktop. This is the easiest way to transfer files off your phone. Most of the MyFunDad videos have been shot on my phone - since that is what I have with me, like all of the time. My phone storage was filling up and I needed something to connect a MicroSD card. I also wanted to edit the videos on my desktop. I have the USB-C adapter that Samsung gave me with the phone but due to the design of it, I couldn't use it with my Otterbox case on. I grew tired of spending the time to take off the case to move files. I tried to connect to my NAS and upload the files over WiFi, but that too was a complicated and time consuming. This adapter is perfect. Be sure to see our video using the HDMI out and full size keyboard and monitor. Read more

I bought the 5-in-1 USB Type-C HUB to use with my Galaxy S9+ in DeX mode. I decided to go for the 5-in-1 instead of the 4-in-1 because it allows me to access several types of media (SD, micro-SD, and USB3 without any other adapters, which is something that I value. I also purchased a folding Bluetooth keyboard to go with this, thinking I would by a mouse later, but I don't need a mouse. This isn't exactly related to this product, but it might be useful to know; when in DeX mode, using the Bluetooth keyboard, the phone screen turns into a touch pad! This was my first time using DeX and I was really impressed with that. DeX itself isn't as refined as I would have liked, but it gets the job done. I wish Samsung made a bigger deal about this because I find the technology to be extremely useful. I see us eventually getting to the point where our phones become the only computer we need. This is still a long way off because there are still many things that are not available within the Android ecosystem. Now more about this specific product... The build quality is really nice, it feels solid in my hand. I just wish that the USB-C wire was removable so I could use a longer cable without an extension, and I feel like that wire will be the first thing to fail, so having it be replaceable might have just made this thing perfect. I knew this when I purchased it, so I'm not taking any stars off for this, but it's something to consider. The connections are solid. I tested all the different media types, and I could access all of them (USB Drive, SD card, and micro-SD card). I didn't have a 4K monitor to test with, but it connected to a 1080p screen using HDMI without any issues. The refresh rate was good enough. I played a few games to test the response and it was not bad. I also watched a few YouTube videos, which all ran smooth. The sound played clearly and in-sync with the video using headphones connected to my phone, the speakers in the monitor, and a Bluetooth speaker (which I already knew didn't have a delay in sound). I also tested this with an RF wireless keyboard and mouse via the USB3 port, and that worked fine as well. When the hub is connected to an external 5V source via the female USB-C port, it charges my phone at full speed. This also works with a battery pack. FYI - As stated in the product information, you must connect a 5V power source to this device in order to have DeX mode activated. Overall this device does everything I need it to do and I'm very happy with my purchase. Read more
