Copped a Note 10+ a long time ago specifically because of your review. Still using it and it's still going strong. Paired it with a Gamesir X2, and it's awesome.
Dex has been around for years - yet, it is amazing how few people know about it. Literally allows you to use your Samsung Galaxy phones as a computer for nearly everything you need to do. Wish Samsung would do a major push on Dex for at least one year.
Yeah, it's like the most obvious marketing advantage in the history of man, and they're not taking advantage of it to increase sales?! So stupid. You can make so many vs iPhone commercials with the Dex advantage. Samsung needs to fire their marketing department.
I took my nreal airs to a bar with 2 Folds and an S21. NONE of them had any idea that their phones are full-blown desktops in disguise! All blown away by Dex once they tried the glasses on!
You are probably tired of buying older phones, but the LG V60 has the SD 865 - plus it's cheap. It has 3.5mm out, micro SD expansion, has a desktop mode, videos out over USB c, and supports a second screen. Always enjoy your content!
@@cryptomancer-909 one thing to note is the att variant gets its updates through att. So if you use the att phone like I do on cricket or some other service you won't get updates.
Huge coincidence. I actually just did this with an old S10 Store Demo that I had laying around. Took a while to figure out how to get it onto regular firmware, but it's working great. Always love your content ETA. Keep it up!
You totally read my mind ETA Prime! I wanted to do this with one of my older phones, which also is an 855. I was going to go through your channel to see how to set it up and how the performance would be. Then here you are, releasing exactly what I was looking for!
I use an S10+ as my daily driver, and it still has great performance for general phone purposes, mobile games, emulation, and all sorts of productivity apps. Works well streaming games from my PC and even emulating up to Wii pretty decently (thanks to Dolphin)
I wonder if snapdragon 8 gen 2 Samsungs and other androids can emulate rogue sqaudron 2 or 3 or time splitters. iPhone has been able to emulate rogue squadron 2 at about 60 smooth since iPhone 12/13. Which is ridiculous when android gpus are already surpassing iPhone. And even more ridiculous when android is more optimized for emulators but it has seemed like apples dolphin emulator has been more optimized for longer androids is just getting better now I guess the cpu really matters for emulation cause they do have high cpu single core scores and from eta primes videos of iPad and what not is ridiculous how well it emulates GameCube. I know snapdragon 888 and 8 gen 1 with the new dolphin updates can emulate call of duty mw3 Wii smoothly finally which is crazy with how hard that game is to emulate!
@@bulletpunch9317 skyline is good but it doesn’t compare yet to yuzu or ryujinx. It’s amazing how smooth many new switch games run on pc even better than the physical game for the switch that literally just came out! Like Pokémon scarlet and violet. Brilliant diamond and shining pearl don’t seem to work at all yet on android from videos I seen of s22 ultra which no matter what people say every android with the same flagship chip is going to get the same performance around other than maybe a redmagic but oneplus and xiaomi having better emulation than Samsung is a dam lie I seen s22 ultra emulate smash bros ultimate switch at 120 fps
Really like my S10, which I got specifically for games/emulation via Dex, per ETA Prime’s recommendation a few years ago. Also recently got a gamevice flex for it. Fun times.
The most useful gadget I like to watch most in this channel. A good hdmi connector and convertor. It breathe new life into many products by giving them new purpose and ability.
I've had this phone for like 3 years, and i am just discovering that you're able to do all of this, and have never known what dex even was..this is blowing my mind dude..i feel like an old person discovering smart phones for the first time LOL
Yep. My daily phone is a Galaxy s20+ (SD865). I have a gamesir for playing directly on the phone, plus a bunch of random controllers around the house (xbox,ps4,moga,etc.) Plus usbc-to-hdmi adapters plugged into each TV/monitor around the house. It's great to finally have a device that I can literally play anywhere, in any room in the house, while traveling, while waiting to pick a kid up from practice, etc.
LgV50 is also a good option as well. I purchased one about two years ago for 150 (LG devices devalue very quickly for some reason) 855 snapdragon, hdmi out through usb-c, micro SD slot. It's a great handheld/retro emulation device that can play some of the newer android games.
Well lg no longer makes phones it might be what helps it devalue which is good and bad good if you want it cheap to get for games bad if you want to get rid of it
I actually prefer the S10 compared to the newer ones. This still has an sd card slot. The newer ones are too powerful which heats up quite a lot when gaming compared to the S10.
I just changed my phone from Poco X3 Pro to S10e after watching your channel. I really love it, especially the Dex mode and small form factor. I got the 8GB RAM 256GB ROM version.
Galaxy S10 series (Snapdragon variant) is a nice device for in-house emulation & it still has a headphone jack so that you can connect it with the sound system without interrupting DeX Mode.
If you happen to have a gamesir X2 controller... their app comes standard with button mapping for games like genshin impact, and I have to say that it actually works rather well. The lag or lack thereof is equal to that of the 8-Bit do Pro 2 controllers. If controller support is something that you're looking for 4 games like this almost any controller that gamesir sells I believe comes standard with that app that allows for easy mapping
I've bought entire cars for that price in the USA. 300 bucks? Bought an 800 dollar late 90s Ford Taurus once. Perfect condition except one scratch where a dog jumped on it, softly driven, 35,000 miles because the old lady only drove it to get groceries and to church. The car ran perfectly, for 800 dollars. Not as easy to get a deal that good now, but yeah...American second hand prices are the best.
I was driving that care when I was 20, so about 10 years ago you could get a perfect condition vehicle for less than 1000 bucks if you shopped around in small cities and towns.
That lit up screen is going to get some burn-in sitting on the home screen for a long time. For me, DeX worked fine with the screen off, so not an issue. I've tried it on an S10e and an S8 Plus, which is the cheapest setup you can get. Powered by a Snapdragon 835, I got mine with a few cracks for 20$ Canadian. Pair it up with a cheap docking solution and it runs pretty smoothly! Expect a bit less performance and more heat from it though.
This is the perfect idea for my Note 4. 1440p, micro HDMI out. Screen is a bit discolored because it was in a house fire so this solution totally makes sense. It runs Marshmallow which means it should be supported by all the emulators. The Exynos 5433 is only about 65% as powerful as the 9820 but still should be plenty for emulating anything through 6th gen consoles and PSP. I have a hacked 2ds I use to play 3DS and DS games. I cannot run Xenia or Cemu so no BOTW for me. It will run Dolphin though so I can utilize my massive GC and Wii collection. I have an old laptop for stuff like Xenia and Cemu anyway. I basically have a Wii U on a flash drive I can use on any supported device.
I've got the Note 8 and it doesn't directly support HDMI over type C, but I bought the DEX dock that came out at the time and it, along with the phone have been gathering dust, so I'm going to turn it into a little emulation and media streamer for my non smart TV in the bedroom
This sounds like a great idea for a cut price home made Android and emulation gaming console. I think I might give this a go - especially at it's also a cheap way of getting desktop Dex up and running too. On eBay in the UK there seems to be plenty of S10's going with 8 GB of Ram (but see below). One thing to bear in mind for this of us not in the States though: International models of the S10 use the Exynos 9820 system-on-chip, while the U.S. and Chinese models use the Qualcomm Snapdragon 855. Any of phones you could run this same setup on?
It is kinda amazing by what older Android phone can do now, I have the S20Fe, I done this and I have a razer kishi with a lot of my emulators setup on it. It brillant, as at work on slow day I can play God of War, then go home, put into my Dex dock (samsung did make one) and just carry on where I was, its kinda amazing. Dex is amazing and I think really overlooked.
I want to get a samsung phone and a usb c > hdmi for that purpose. Pretty much a better switch because on the S22/S23(when it comes out) you can emulate switch games.
@@LastFirst-iq2fn I generally find it to charge up the device, but very slowly, exmple I put on at 70% after a 2hour gaming, it was at 72% so its basically feel like as fast at it charging the device is take up the power. (when it not doing anything in the same doc it would full charge up in the same amout of time).
This use to be my setup with a fold 4 with shadow pc on it but I ended up getting a onexplayer and now I use my old fold 2 with dex as a live security cam feed plugged into a Asus zenscreen on my gaming desk . Alot of ppl have been sleeping on the possibilities with Samsung Dex .
Some time ago one of my family memebers upgraded their oneplus 5T to an iphone so i got it for free. It runs dolphin full-speed and has pretty long battery-life too. There must be a plethora of devices like that that don't get any use nowadays. Amazing performance per watt!
Hey Eta prime, I was wondering. Have you thought about experimenting with e/ os? It’s a googleless android os meant for privacy. I heard it has a desktop mode but it’s the one that’s built into base android
You shuold use some adapter that support USB charger like UGreen Type-C HUB. While in SS DEX, you can turn off the phone screen to prevent heat up. I use it sometime when away from my laptop, it work well. Some monitor now have build-in docking, it can connect the phone and charge it at the same time.
I was just playing a game on my OnePlus 8 with my kishi controller and was like. Hey this looks like a good idea. Have the same SD865 with 8GB of ram 😁
Hi. Big fan. Been watching for about. A year and a half. And I actually bought my s9 solely for display out. And I've had mantis buddy for like. About a year as well. It was really my bypass for playing pokemon unite on a TV, I was really into it when it came out but to be frank on the small screen its not as immersive. But yeah I was even pushing my s9 to play gamecube, and I actually got kh2 at 2x running somewhat decent. I was getting ALOT of lag between loads but that may have been me using Vulkan instead of oil. I literally am holding myself back because your kinda my mod inspiration just always working on a budget and thats just the life I live.
That magnetic system on the fan is amazing. Do you know of any phone/tablet holder or arm that uses the same mechanism for when watching on the bed or couch?
I recently bought a new s20fe snapdragon edition. It's an amazing phone. I wanted to try dex mode to play games on my monitor. But how about the audio? Will the sound out put from my phone or from my monitor?
I'm digging my moto g100 - snapdragon 870, 8gb RAM, MicroSD, headphones jack, video out over USB-C w/ "ready for" (Motorola's version of Dex), and it's easy to unlock the bootloader to install LineageOS or whatever. It's a fairly big, but the upside of that is that I can easily get 2 days worth of battery on a single charge. I paid $270 for it on eBay last year.
I use this for Call of Duty Mobile. S20fe and DEX connected to a usb-c hub with usb ports and hdmi out on my Samsung 65" tv with Xbox controller. It's amazing. The only downside is you cant use the controller to navigate in the menu. To solve this I use a wireless mouse with my hub. This setup turns any mobile game into a console like approach.
Is this is why i am kinda interested in the Razer Edge. Yeah it is a little over kill for a android hand held but imagine if they also put a desk top mode in there? with the detachable controller it would be real simple to go from a pretty powerful docked device to a killer hand held on the fly. That being said, i am still going to wait for actual test units to make their rounds and see if the community actually starts dev with it in mind.
Didn't razr change the specs, have to apologize, mislead customers, and put a horrible screen resolution on the thing? I've spoken to like 6 different handheld reviewers personally, and every one of them thought it was a piece of crap.
@@cheeeeezewizzz no idea what you mean by the screen resolution. It is a beautiful screen. It is 1080p if u see that as some how bad in a 6 inch screen. The amoled and high refresh rate also make it look even better in game. Calling it a piece of crap is a over reaction at best, dishonest at worst. There is a lot of missed opportunities with the razer edge but for the money in the android space it is a pretty good little package. A lot of reviewers are putting it up against a steam deck which is not even a valid comparison.
@@cheeeeezewizzz Razer severely fumbled the launch in a way that will negatively impact trust for a lot of folks, but at the end of the day it’s still a very powerful device
This is a neat concept for sure i bet the cell doom would would be an interesting thing to play this way certainly odd world strangers wrath would be interesting to
Been watching yr content for a while and really enjoy them. I found out that Samsung put a weaker chipset in UK phones.(Exynos 9820)😢😢! Do you have any ideas which phones to look out for in the UK to recreate this process
We've reached a point in technology where "old technology" is still very capable of running current software and apps. The Samsung S10 is still an amazing phone not just for gaming, of course you always breathe new life into tech people moved on from. Thanks for posting
Wow! I haven't seen that live wallpaper background in a looong time. IF it's the same one I'm thinking of. Light Grid or something? The dev of that app has a few other cool live wallpaper apps too iirc. Been around a long time now.
Personally I use Samsung DeX a lot, I don't have a fancy setup, just an old 32 inch FHD TV, I use it mostly for UA-cam with a Samsung Galaxy S9 which has a broken display. I use also a dock with USB C in USB C PD HDMI 2.0a, USB A 2.0 USB A 3.0 and a microSD card slot (The external microSD doesn't work when there is a microSD inside the phone, there is no separate controller on the dock).
While looking this video, glancing at my trusty S8+ ... lol it feels weird. Thankfully now in Europe we'll have Qualcomm with the S23 series, it was about time and waiting was worth it. ETA, mind sharing please which animated wallpaper you're using on the S10? Thanks.
Did the same thing except I made a case for my note 20 ultra to use razor jungle cat as a handheld and use the original dex station to connect to my tv so I guess I made a Samsung switch lmao but the reason I used the dex station is the fans
I like the idea of using an old smartphone lying around at home. Is it possible to connect two controllers and play with a friend togheter? For example an old ps2 game like fifa?
Is it possible to have DeX running and have a UI like emulation station on the mobile screen at the same time? You could just pick a game and load the emulator on the DEX? I’m not an android person so something like this may already exist??
was able to snag a s20 FE for $107 !! amazing performance
Awesome! That’s a super deal
That's a steal ! Where you buy it?
take me 2 of these too
Soon it will get 107$ as normal price.
So its a standard price lol

I love this setup. I use the S10e with Dex and an external monitor as my work travel setup and it's been great when it comes to packing light

I'm digging my moto g100 - snapdragon 870, 8gb RAM, MicroSD, headphones jack, video out over USB-C w/ "ready for" (Motorola's version of Dex), and it's easy to unlock the bootloader to install LineageOS or whatever.
It's a fairly big, but the upside of that is that I can easily get 2 days worth of battery on a single charge.
I paid $270 for it on eBay last year.
I use this for Call of Duty Mobile.
S20fe and DEX connected to a usb-c hub with usb ports and hdmi out on my Samsung 65" tv with Xbox controller. It's amazing. The only downside is you cant use the controller to navigate in the menu. To solve this I use a wireless mouse with my hub. This setup turns any mobile game into a console like approach.
Is this is why i am kinda interested in the Razer Edge. Yeah it is a little over kill for a android hand held but imagine if they also put a desk top mode in there? with the detachable controller it would be real simple to go from a pretty powerful docked device to a killer hand held on the fly. That being said, i am still going to wait for actual test units to make their rounds and see if the community actually starts dev with it in mind.
The edge doesn't have Dex, but it does have HDMI video out. So no "desktop" mode, but it will send your screeen to the tv
Didn't razr change the specs, have to apologize, mislead customers, and put a horrible screen resolution on the thing? I've spoken to like 6 different handheld reviewers personally, and every one of them thought it was a piece of crap.
@@cheeeeezewizzz no idea what you mean by the screen resolution. It is a beautiful screen. It is 1080p if u see that as some how bad in a 6 inch screen. The amoled and high refresh rate also make it look even better in game. Calling it a piece of crap is a over reaction at best, dishonest at worst. There is a lot of missed opportunities with the razer edge but for the money in the android space it is a pretty good little package. A lot of reviewers are putting it up against a steam deck which is not even a valid comparison.
@@cheeeeezewizzz and this is based on owning the edge 5g and a month of running it thru it’s paces vs a few other hand held
@@cheeeeezewizzz Razer severely fumbled the launch in a way that will negatively impact trust for a lot of folks, but at the end of the day it’s still a very powerful device
Word im second to watch these love your videos man keep it up
What is charging your smartphone when connected to the monitor?
Could you except the same results if you were gaming on the Tab S6 since it uses the same processor?
This is a neat concept for sure i bet the cell doom would would be an interesting thing to play this way certainly odd world strangers wrath would be interesting to
s10 and note 10 line support wireless dex right?it also support screen share so either way you could emulate while using bigger screen or tv
I've been doing this for a couple years and been telling people about it 😁 good to see you bring this to people
I have a LG g8 it runs the same SOC. Also just got an update for Android 12.
What is the keyboard that you are using?
Been watching yr content for a while and really enjoy them. I found out that Samsung put a weaker chipset in UK phones.(Exynos 9820)😢😢! Do you have any ideas which phones to look out for in the UK to recreate this process
Thank you for doing videos like this, very awesome. Being on a budget you tend to have more devices vs. buying expensive ones.
We've reached a point in technology where "old technology" is still very capable of running current software and apps. The Samsung S10 is still an amazing phone not just for gaming, of course you always breathe new life into tech people moved on from. Thanks for posting
Old games are not getting more demanding
Yeah. The only thing really getting better is refresh rates, and cameras
That wallpaper is sick.
Wow! I haven't seen that live wallpaper background in a looong time. IF it's the same one I'm thinking of. Light Grid or something? The dev of that app has a few other cool live wallpaper apps too iirc. Been around a long time now.
Hello, did you used Good lock?
I have 2 S10+ still like new already set up one as a console.
Personally I use Samsung DeX a lot, I don't have a fancy setup, just an old 32 inch FHD TV, I use it mostly for UA-cam with a Samsung Galaxy S9 which has a broken display. I use also a dock with USB C in USB C PD HDMI 2.0a, USB A 2.0 USB A 3.0 and a microSD card slot (The external microSD doesn't work when there is a microSD inside the phone, there is no separate controller on the dock).
While looking this video, glancing at my trusty S8+ ... lol it feels weird.
Thankfully now in Europe we'll have Qualcomm with the S23 series, it was about time and waiting was worth it.
ETA, mind sharing please which animated wallpaper you're using on the S10?
Thanks.
ooooo.... I just picked up a gaems vanguard and this might be an interesting thing to test or run on it....
Great idea for older phones.
I saw a UA-cam channel , that guy overclocked 865 is beat easily beats 8 gen1.
Broken phone with good motherboard , it will be a fun project.
Im intersted. If to connect it to touch monitor via ucb-c will touch correctly work ? Like tablet ?
is there delay when playing fps games like codm? i think thats important to mention
what is vulkan and what are you using it for?
That’s pretty impressive
Got the s10e and it plays every single emulator ps2 psp gamecube etc at 100% with no lagg 8ts great
This is essentially what I just got my Galaxy Fold3 for 🙌🏻
Did the same thing except I made a case for my note 20 ultra to use razor jungle cat as a handheld and use the original dex station to connect to my tv so I guess I made a Samsung switch lmao but the reason I used the dex station is the fans
Plus if you use the original dex station you can use ethernet cable for cloud gaming
I like the idea of using an old smartphone lying around at home. Is it possible to connect two controllers and play with a friend togheter? For example an old ps2 game like fifa?
Which models came with 4K resolution with One UI 5.0? Did it come for the S10?
Can you make a video on how you are able to emulate all the different games that you have and where to get them.
What's that live wallpaper your using anyone know looks mint?
I may have to pick one up to emulation on and all for that price with the steam deck hub thing it be great lil emulate machine
The cool thing is how much gaming you can actually do. Yeah its not able to do every AAA but you absolutely can play games, even some esports!
Will the 2.4 GHz controllers work w the USB ports?
Hello! I have a old Samsung Note 9 with a broken screen. Will Dex work on that device?
Does the gamepad support rumble/vibration playing games with the phone?
Is it possible to have DeX running and have a UI like emulation station on the mobile screen at the same time? You could just pick a game and load the emulator on the DEX? I’m not an android person so something like this may already exist??
8:15 --- fly 43, fly.
Are you reviewing the red magic 8 pro?
does it have delay when using monitor for fps games? just wondering.
Is there a way to disable the device screen while its displaying to the tv?
