Four third-party docking stations for the Pinephone Pro

Last Updated on July 19, 2024 by pg@petergamma.org

Comments of the YouTube video maker below:

  • The battery is not charged to 100% while docked in his experience, it only charges to around 50 %.
  • He tried 3 different brands of USB-C to HDMI adapters with power delivery (PD), ,e also tried a 4th, the Anker 7-in-1, which is not shown in this video but it too works too.
  • If you don’t use a powered dock, the Pinephone Pro dies in just under an hour.
  • The original Pinephone has a convergence dock that is powered, but you can’t use the convergence dock with the PPP, but this contradicts to this add:

  • He used Mobian with Phosh on an SD card
  • Manjaro/Plasma Mobile is on the eMMC (not shown in this video).
  • H found Plasma to not be very good at handling external displays.
  • The settings would get screwed up or something would break and throw everything off.

Tested docks:

  1. Anker 7-in-1
  • not shown in the video, tested afterwards.
  • It works, but he says not what he tested, we suppose it is
  • we suppose power delivery works
  • we suppose that mouse works
  • we suppose that keyboard works
  • we suppose that HDMI out works
  • as the YouTube video maker has tested with the others.

Issues with three usb-c docking stations tested by the MRIS

  • We already have tested 3 usb-c to HDMI adapters with the Pinephone
  • the cheapest which could do that we found on Aliexpress

HDMI out worked with none of them.

  • keyboard and mouse worked with one.
  • we did not test this with the other ones.

issues for us personally with the adapters tested in the above video:

  • None of them is tested with the Pinephone, but only with the Pinephone Pro.
  • None of them was tested for wired ethernet.
  • Wired ethernet for the Pinephone is fin, but tricky, and only runs with selected Pinephone distros.

Information for product sellers who do stock market speculation and scalping with products mentioned by Peter Gamma on www.petergamma.org

According to the little experience of Peter Gamma from www.petergamma.org, many of the products listed here are still full of issues which need to be resolved. If you do stock market speculation and scalping with those, you will loose Peter Gamma from www.petergamma.org as a buyer of these products and as a reviewer. Is this not risky? Will you not loose a majority of your costumers as well?

And is it not so, that society in general does not accept stock market speculation and scalping with products as those which are listed here? And will you not be politically incapable of finding a majority of the voters if you do stock market speculation and scalping with these products?

And as a consequence will you not be condemned and punished by a political referendum soon? Especially if you do this to a Swiss, since are not majority of Swiss against stock market speculations and scalping with people on a budget? And people in Switzerland are known for a lot of political referendums, since we have direct democracy in this country.

And Peter Gamma from www.petergamma.org will fight up to the European Court of Human Rights against people who do stock market speculation and scalping with the products which are mentioned on www.petergamma.org. And if they do not have yet the legal basis there to do so, he will fight for it.

What is a scalper?

A scalper is someone who buys something and resells it at a price far above the initial cost. For instance some says: “He got theater tickets through a scalper”: Someone who buys tickets to an event in order to resell them at a profit. And is it not also scalping if you take reviews from this site to make out of it a new product offer, and sell it for a higher price? We doubt that you will be successful with it. Since Peter Gamma will review your product and will user not come back to www.petergamma.org after that?
