I still don't understand why more of these things don't have charging included though, what the fuck do they expect me to do about that?
I want to try using this to display a video call on a monitor but because I'm using my phone for wifi/camera/screen is on I lost over 20% battery life in a 21 minute call with a USB-C to Display Port Alt adapter when I used it without a charger plugged in.
That adapter is one of the only affordable ones I've found with charging but the HDMI connection is intermittent and seems to drop out when the cable is moved slightly like the pins in the USB-C end are not making proper contact in the phone so I had to send it back for a refund.
Also why is there no option to change the screen's orientation? It's as if the Android people in charge of this were absolutely retarded. I plug my G5 into my TV and of course there's giant black bars on the side of the screen, but I want to plug it into a monitor that's setup in Portrait mode and have NO black bars, this should be possible but there is no option for it at all.
