BOOX MAX 3, which also becomes an external monitor of a smartphone

The electronic paper tablet from ONYX has a large screen and has a model that can be applied to business use by compatible with pen input.The latest "BOOX MAX 3" is equipped with a high -speed CPU with 4GB of memory and 9 Android, which is higher and faster than conventional electronic paper tablets.I borrowed the overseas sales version so I tried an interesting use.It is an external monitor function.

ONYX BOOX MAX 3 that can support pen and touch.

BOOX MAX3 has an app called "monitor", and has a function to become an external monitor of other terminal via the mini HDMI terminal of the main unit.It can usually be used as an electronic memo using the included pen, but it can be used as an external monitor such as a notebook PC.

You can also use Android apps.There is an app called "monitor"

The display size of BOOX MAX 3 is 13.Type 3, resolution is 2260x1650 dots.Because the size is large and the resolution is high, the fine characters are easy to read, but it will be convenient depending on the application while displaying as an external monitor.

External monitor connection using laptops, etc. Tend to use.This time, I dared to connect using a smartphone.

If you have a recent smartphone, you can output it to an external monitor using an HDMI conversion cable almost from USB Type-C.Using the LG V50 Thinq on hand, the USB connection via the adapter was displayed as it was on the BOOX MAX3 screen with a mirroring.

In addition, since it is a monochrome electronic paper, the display of photos is somewhat difficult.In that area, it is easier to see if you select the display mode from four and change it in a timely manner.

On the other hand, the display of the text is no problem.It would be nice if you could display the full screen with this, but it may be good to use it a little when you are tired of seeing the smartphone screen.

However, there is a problem.First of all, when using it as an external monitor, power supply from the USB Type-C terminal is required.At the time of non -connection, there is a warning to connect the charging cable.In addition, the connection may not be stable or that the display has failed.This area may be compatible with the smartphone side.

It is better to connect the power when using it as an external monitor

The difficulty is that the connection is frequently cut off

By the way, Speaking of an external monitor connection of the smartphone, the Samsung Galaxy series and the top model of Huawei can display the dedicated desktop screen.So I connected Huawei Mate 30 Pro of Huawei Mate 30.

If you are a Huawei, you should be able to release a dedicated desktop screen

After connecting, switch to "Desktop display".What about the result?Unfortunately, the screen display was disturbed, and the desktop screen could not be displayed.Also, even if Galaxy Note10 is connected, it cannot be displayed in DEX mode.It seems that only mirroring can be connected to smartphones so far.

I couldn't start the desktop screen

If you do not use a tablet, you will keep it in your bag, and there are many people.However, if it can be used as an external monitor of smartphones and laptops, it can be used effectively at home or at the office.Although it is an electronic paper display tablet, the external monitor connection function of BOOX MAX 3 seems to be a function that expands the possibility of the tablet.
