  • It seems like a pain in the neck because of the difficulty of writing code for Android, especially older versions, since the API’s keep changing and the older SDK’s might be hard to find and use (I haven’t tried). It helps if you can root the phone, but that isn’t always easy either. Plus, a phone-sized PC display doesn’t sound that useful. For a wall or desk display, you might be better off with an Inkplate (e-reader with reflective e-paper display) or similar.




  • I don’t understand that chart really, but charging speed is carefully controlled in the phone, based on monitoring the battery temperature among other things. They won’t charge from 0% to 80% at 100 watts even if they might hit 100W momentarily under the right conditions. Fast charging is hard on batteries anyway. Make sure you are ok with replacing the battery every so often, if you’re going to fast charge regularly.
