Hi Juan. Thanks for all your videos. Got a question if you have a moment. I watched your unboxing video, the "your reactions" video, and this one. Since your setup was off-camera in the unboxing video, I'm confused about one thing: Does this phone work *_wired_* to your NexDock? How does it hook up? Single USB-C for video, keyboard & trackpad? I thought Motorola publicly said ReadyFor was wireless only, which to me would defeat the purpose, because it requires you have a fully functional OS on your laptop in order to use your phone as your laptop. Plus wireless lag and/or requiring Wi-Fi doesn't sound awesome if you're trying to write an email in a hotel or something.

Edge 2021 is wireless only. It's USB C port is only 2.0 which is data only no video output. So you could still broadcast it to a nexdock (if it's got wireless compatibility.) and use the wired connection for mouse/keyboard functions. But G100/200 and Edge+ 2020/2022 versions are all wired compatibile (USB-C 3.1 +displaylink.) Which allows for wired video output and data. Though G100/200 and Edge+ 2020 are on Android 11.

I like your Smartphone as a Desktop Videos. But I'm really missing footage on browser performance on Dex and Ready For. In my opinion browers are the most important apps on a phone. Samsung phones struggle with killing apps in the background. How about Motorola? I really need a more polished multitasking experience. Dex caches apps minimized to the taskbar and removes them out of active memory. This way websites often reload when maximizing to fullscreen. Even switching from one maximized browser window to another often reloads websites. I know you can use "The long live app" function with multistar but it only works with one app at a time. Does ready for do better?

1st time im hearing of this and its very interesting. i like the shortcut to v, games and productivity apps. thats a very nice idea

What about refresh rate. Dex is stuck at 60hz. I have to change the hdmi mode to screen mirroring to get 120hz on a 144hz monitor.

Well, the Tisofu USB C Hub MacBook HDMI Adapter - 7in1 Docking Station USB C Dongle Dock USB C Hub MultiPort Adapter I bought on Amazon did NOT work on my Moto Edge 2022 (not the + version) when connecting to my Hisense TV or Asus monitor. I have on order an Anker USB C to HDMI Adapter (4K@60Hz) on order. If that does not work, the Moto Edge 2022 is going back as Ready For is not working as advertised. It is basically the most purchased and highest rated adapter. I could have gone with something cheaper that had nearly as much ratings but it is a brand I'm not familiar with. I figure if it can't work with an Anker product, it will not work at all and at this point, I'm not willing to drop $60 for Motorola's Ready For dock.

Please JUAN, I just purchased the Motorola edge Plus 2022 model unlocked version at Best buy I am currently on Verizon prepaid and have no home Wi-Fi I am interested in this decks or 360 docking items that I hear you and the other people speak of besides my phone and the cable connectors what do I need to purchase is there a particular item that you suggest so that I can hook my phone up to it and use Motorola ready for?

The thing I like about RF over Dex, you shouldn't need to buy anything specific. It works better than Dex with many different accessories, docks, monitors, etc. If you.want a laptop dock, check my videos on nexdock and Uperfect, or try to shop the old HP laptop dock. Otherwise RF should work great with any old laptop hub with USBC in and HDMI out. My current monitor even connects directly with USBC, no adapter required.

@@SomeGadgetGuy thank you for your reply I just now hooked up my Moto edge Plus 2022 to my TV it's working perfectly. I'm in my 40s and my husband and I have only had $200 phones before but I had to have the HDMI out we don't have cable,or Wi-Fi now, and we never have and I don't plan on ever getting it. I pay plenty enough for the phone and phone service that I should be able to do everything I need to with this dog on thing including hook it up to our TVs or laptops or whatever other device we may come across. Really appreciate your help we have nobody else to get any of this information from.

Do forget the Moto Razr and I think Moto fit that had the lapdock and Firefox based desktop mode

Dex knows the resolution of external monitors and I don't experience any performance issues when using Dex or on the phone. And I have an older Samsung S20. Dex also integrates well with Samsung televisions which I use all the time. Don't see any reason to change. Nice to have competition though because Dex is a bit rough around the edges.

The only reason dex had gotten more resolution aware in newer updates of oneui is because of competition. But if you're using dex on a phone, it's only putting out higher resolution if you also install good Lock AND activate the right module. If you haven't done that, dex is only 1080p.

Androids desktop mode doesn't fit my use case, but it's interesting to see how far it can go.

It feels like as if Motorola take a look at DeX and EMUI Desktop and copy the best bit while giving some real improvement at the same time. I'd love too see what LG can do with Screen+ Desktop Mode for Android 12.

If you're looking for a Desktop system like this. Only choices is the ladder of the two. But Ready-For is looking more flushed out and though then Dex that's took them so long to get to a decent working point. Only thing that kind is a killer is Motorola's low OS updates of likely 1-2 os. While Samsung is up to 4 OS updates.

I got this running on a 70 inch TV from a Moto edge 30 via Miracast on a firestick (seems a crazy way to connect an Android TV to an Android phone). The picture quality is awful and the mouse horrible to control. Did I get something wrong or is it just not as good as dex?

I can do that with my Motorola G Stylus 2022 phone and it doesn't have ready for. I can mirror on firestick and chromecast. I can do that with any of my Motorola phones. I use castto - screen mirroring app on the phone and airscreen app on the firestick. That isn't really ready for to me. That is just mirroring that can be done with pretty much any phone. I have a wireless display adapter dongle (uses no wifi). If I use a Motorola edge+ 2022 with that, I think that is ready for (wireless). Using the cable connection for ready for is best way to get best picture quality and best response. Don't forget that you are using a monster size 70" TV (maybe 4k) so naturally a 1080p device can't put out the best picture quality on a large 4k tv. Somewhat similar to people using an old video game system on a large 4k TV. It is why some people use older crtv or 720p lcd because they put out a clearer picture. If the quad hd moto z2 force had the ready for capability, I think it would put out better picture because of its quad HD high resolution screen.

@@catflapqo It worked for my moto g stylus 5G 2022 but it also worked my older moto g stylus 2020. I am using mirror casting app with those phones and they aren't "ready for" enabled. I just did mirror display with both my firestick and also Chromecast with my old moto g stylus 2020. With my firestick, I needed to download a mirror app though but the mirroring works great with both firestick and Chromecast. I don't see any difference in picture quality. Remember your internet connection is being used by both the phone and firestick. If you have strong internet connection, the better connection and less lag. Wired is better because of the direct connection. Ready For (wireless) isn't that much different than mirror. I can mirror from my Samsung a54 5g as well. They call it "smart view". The Samsung Galaxy a54 5g doesn't support dex. The big benefit of the Ready For is the desktop experience and the wired connection. The wired connection would definitely give you more responsive experience especially with gaming. I have weak internet connection but it still works fine with me. No reason to mirror any video streams as I would just use the apps on the firestick/Chromecast. Get a usb-c to HDMI cord and plug the phone into a HDMI slot into your television. They are cheap. It would absolutely make the screen better and responsive. That is why we see ready for and dex being used as a desktop with a monitor. No need for any special dock as the cheap cord works fine. Skip any middleman (firestick Miracast) and any possible data degradation. I can't do that with my stylus phones as it lacks video out through usb-c. Keyboard and mouse would be way more responsive. I used a Bluetooth keyboard with a small laptop to a television with wall interference and there was lag when typing. It worked but little slow but I also have slow internet so that is also a factor.

Hey man, I understand if you are busy but I seem to have a problem. I have the Motorola edge 30 pro (12gb ram, Snapdragon 8 gen 1) and when I use my TypeC to HDMI dongle for a simple 1080p external monitor it just lags in KZread FHD (1080p).

Per Moto's site, ready for is on the Edge 20 line of phones (PC only on the edge 20 lite), Edge+ and G100. If they can bring the feature to their equivalent of Samsung's A series it would be big and get in the hands of more folks. Same if DEX were to be on the Samsung A series line at least the high end versions of that line.

Hello can you please make a video in English and focus on the TV function of the ready for app. Nobody has been doing it. The idea is to see the performance of the remote mode on the phone and see if it could simulate Android TV box experience. Can you add apps like Netflix, KZread and other VOD application you can have, maybe even a tv app if you have.This way we can see how the apps display in full screen and see how the remote is responsive with the interface.
