    Who is using a fully supported Samsung phone with Your phone? How do you like the connectivity of it? Also, do all messages etc come through reliably?

    I've used it before when I had an S20+. It was nice at first and I did get all notifications and could even make calls from my computer directly through the phone but the beauty of this quickly wore off and it started getting annoying to see the notifications so I got rid of it. I'd rather just use my phone for what its made and have my computer separately for my stuff.

    I am using Dell mobile connect now but would like that extra usability of your phone.

    What extra usability? They do the same thing in my experience, both will let you access the files on the phone wirelessly, receive messages, make calls, and even mirror your screen to control your phone from your laptop via the Dell Mobile Connect app.

    I think the MS application is a bit more streamlined. I have been using mobile connect for almost a year now and love it. I like the fact that you can run android apps on screen with your phone where I can't using mobile conne t and my iPhone. Not as easy anyways.
