I wanted to be able to use my keyboard while charging the tablet.


Thank you @confusedwiseman@lemmy.dbzer0.com for the advice on the 90 degree adapter!

This is nice, but it seems like a laptop with extra steps?
Yeah, except I paid a measly 150 bucks for it NEW, weighs 480 grams with a thickness of 6.9 millimeters. 🤣
AND I can use my mechanical keyboard with it of which I had two so didn’t need to buy a new one. 😎
Looks good!
Man I miss the days when you could get devices with multiple kinds of ports built in. Seems every device now has fewer and fewer ports. Cost cutting disguised as streamlining.
I agree! But to be fair, it’s one of Samsung’s cheapest and weakest tablets. Mine is buffed up with some extreme debloating, but for normies, I think not having more than a charging port on this price range is normal.
But! I do wish they made these with multiple ports, since ,evidently, you can use them as a laptop to some extent (browsing and text editing?).
The future of computing
I was baffled plugging my s23 into my work dell dock and hooking my BT mouse/KB to it and running termux. Pretty legit!!!
Then we are siblings in tech! I’m typing this on my S23! 😃
PS: which I NEVER intend to upgrade from within the S lineup, since I heard that the S24 and above contain some kind of hardware built in containing non removable slop AND One UI 8 and above don’t allow unlocking the bootloader😩 Do your research though, since I don’t have any sources for this at the moment, and the most urgent item on my agenda right now is buying some potato chips 💪
Looks great, but one suggestion. Add a 90 degree port adapter. Take the pressure and risk off that port on the tablet.
Sic! That’s exactly what I was wondering what to do about! :D
Done and done.

Nice! I would recommend some 3M dual lock instead of Velcro for a more secure flush mount
Crazy! I had no idea this even existed!

That looks very cool. If i dont procastinate on it again i get it for my (partially complete) setup. (MiniPC+PowerStation+Touchscreen)
Damn, this post is full of good tips.
