Great video...is there a way I can use my phone as monitor ? Like download app, plug in usbc HDMI and watch Blu ray or gaming device on my phone...example my tv breaks so I need to do that ?
Matt Halpain AGREED!! I’ve been holding onto my iPhone 6s for this very reason. I’ve made up mind finally. When the 6s gives out, I’m going Android finally. Actually looking forward to it.
I did that with my old Moto G1 and the connector, almost everything worked flawlessly! It's amazing how many people didn't know about it. Video liked as always!!!
I have now been using my note 9 for one month now and I must say that it is a fantastic phone. I bought the 512 GB version with 8 GB ram. I have tried the Samsung DEX and use it paired with a bluetooth mouse and a bluetooth keyboard. The phone is connected to my TV or my computer screen throug a HDMI cable. This works really good. Probably this solution will be the end of heavy laptops. Previously I used to have a Sony Xperia Xz but had problems with low capacity battery and very poor options for connecting gadgets to the USB C connector.
I have one that lets you plug in an hdmi cable as well as a couple usb ports so you can also plug in a keyboard and mouse. I think it was normally for newer mac systems but works great for the galaxy s8+ for me. We are so close to your smart phone replacing desktops and laptops. Imagine a cafe that you dock your phone and now you have full peripherals
I have an advice about powering up cheap Chinese fans or other stuff from your pricey phones... -> *do not do that,* especially motors can give a good voltage spike to your phone when they are stopped suddenly. It is called back EMF
Great idea about reading a card for pictures. With the new Note 9 out and being able to expand to 1 TB, something like this would be very useful. And it's nice to just be able to do the other things just in case. Like back-up.
Dudes video was everything I needed and wanted to know... Now your comment... fucking epic haha I laughed so fucking hard. I love sarcastic people lol good job broski
These tips are really amazing Redskull. I DON'T KNOW WHY these tips are not shared in a guide when you buy and android phone. My favorite you mentioned was connecting the keyboard to the phone! You've got me wanting to experiment with my OTG connector for my guitar lesson video. I'll see what I can come up wit, Thanks!!
You should definetly been one of the most followed reviewer, I bought a rugged phone based on your video and everything was verified with phone in my had. This one is another great video for someone like me who discovers new technologies as he goes. Keep doing great!
Nice feature ! Nice Samsung Galaxy S9 Plus too ! Although you can use OTG adapter to play games, can you do a video that you can play games with gaming controller ?
Far more useful than any iPhone will ever be. I love my Note8 that I got last October. Switching from about 7 years of iPhone to Android was by far the best decision I have made.
Hey Alex good to see u again... Ps 3 controller can be used via Bluetooth there is an app called (Axis ) available on playstore. it will detect the controller thanks me later anywayz....thumbs up
No, because smartphones have built in BEC (battery elimination circuit) that regulates the rate at which it can charge and discharge to prevent such things from happening.
So I'm getting that the biggest thing you can do is burn through your battery with no way to charge it except to stop doing what you're doing so you can unplug it and connect a charger. Does that thing work with a powered USB hub by chance? If so can you plug different things into it and switch back and forth between them? And can you keep the phone charged through the powered hub while using it?
it's even possible to use an external cd dvd writer on OTG with certain phones, but you do need a cable with the extra male usb to supply power the writer attached to a usb wall charger.
I've been using my OTG for several things. I connect a SDR to receive rf for a scanner, ADS-B receiver for monitoring air traffic, or just to listen to odd radio frequencies. On the geekier side, as a network admin, I'll use the OTG with a console cable to check routers and switches without having to lug around a laptop.
how can you prove I’m a Apple fan just because I crossed out -Apple is the best ftw- , I called you out only for begging for likes, you really butthurt Android fam
This was an awesome video, thanks so much. I have like 5 of those things from different phones my wife and I have had and never knew you could do all this stuff with them.
Redskull my xperia z3, z5, and one of them was of my friend i put it in counting cuz it was my fan =)) but the warranty repaired them so no big deal, other than loosing the devices for more than 2weeks :)
I've just found out how useful it is , I've got a note 8 phone ,& the little gadget came with it , I've also got a panasonic camera , but when I downloaded the app for it , it didn't work , i tried 4 times & gave up, then I tried the little gadget with the camera lead to my phone & can now transfer photos instantly , straight from camera , it's brilliant . Great video , thanks for sharing .
Thank you so much. You showed me how to get value out of something I already have. And, your info will solve a few of my problems for free. Once again, thank you.
This is the very reason why I didnt cheap out on a new cell phone and chose the S9+. It works exactly like a monitor so I use it for school purposes. I ended up buying the DeX from Samsung to make life easier anyways but the fact still remains how powerful this phone is with multitasking as well as other neat stuff. Very good presentation 👍
Thank you! I had no idea you could do all this with the connector. The part about the camera or drone SD card and to use it as a way to transfer files is really awesome and useful
I was wondering what the hell that thing was that came with my Note 9. Now I know. Thanks for another great video! I look forward to trying it out as a dslr monitor.
New video! Cool things to do with the Samsung Galaxy S10 & OTG connector: th-cam.com/video/tfjcIaaG4pM/w-d-xo.html
You can even connect printer and use them to print using apps like Hammermill
How do u have 1 like
Thank you
Great video...is there a way I can use my phone as monitor ? Like download app, plug in usbc HDMI and watch Blu ray or gaming device on my phone...example my tv breaks so I need to do that ?
How do I tell the phone to send power if it does work automatically
Here's what you can do with OTG connector:-
Connect anything that has a USB port.
Actually, the OTG connector is the USB port.
Y
Right, I dont understand this video, u can literally use anything, the hell is this video xD
Ntfs HDDS not working! And yes 99.9% Usb HDDS runs under NTFS
I work in phones sales, so I was thinking of how I could explain this in about a sentence and this is what I came up with lol.
Basically: Android>iOS.
Purchased an S9+ yesterday after a lifetime with Apple. Feels Like being released from prison. 10/10 would recommend.
hahaha! Great analogy! Welcome to the dark side :)
xXZombieKillerZXx * Basically. Must have typed that on an iPhone...
xXZombieKillerZXx Ah, I figured someone who talks smart should probably use proper spelling and grammar. Good phone though btw.
Maria R welcome to the party.
an a?
This $5. Connector puts my over priced iPhone X to shame
I’m getting a Samsung as my next smart phone
Can't tell you how many times I have read that comment about Apple in general over the last few months.
Matt Halpain AGREED!! I’ve been holding onto my iPhone 6s for this very reason. I’ve made up mind finally. When the 6s gives out, I’m going Android finally. Actually looking forward to it.
Caveman-74 I just switched from Iph 6s to galaxy s9 and the change is colossal! I really encourage you to do this because you will not regret it!
Matt Halpain it's free in Galaxy S9 box
how old are you? 30, 35?
Using a keyboard with a phone feels like cutting a grape with a sword
Ohh I love this part almost most of all!! I could sit and input all my passwords instead of running into typos with the tiny phone keyboard.
They did surgery on a grape
Stefan
That's insane I forgot about my otg I threw it back in the box and never touched it because I thought it was some sort of charging adapter lmao
Oh, no worries, not that many people know what that's for :)
haha me too, thought it was just to tranfer date from old phone to new one.
lmao FACTS. I'm getting it back and putting in right into my wallet lol, this thing is actually amazing
You thought it was for the headphone jack lol
Same
I did that with my old Moto G1 and the connector, almost everything worked flawlessly! It's amazing how many people didn't know about it.
Video liked as always!!!
yeah, not a well known thing!
You can plug a hub and use both the mouse and keyboard at the same time
correct
Or use a wireless keyboard/mouse and only need to connect 1 receiver :)
Have been using that feature for years.
Use Bluetooth keyboard and mouse, and you need no connectors...
Yep I did that with my old Motorola phone that had something like Samsung's Dex.
I have now been using my note 9 for one month now and I must say that it is a fantastic phone. I bought the 512 GB version with 8 GB ram. I have tried the Samsung DEX and use it paired with a bluetooth mouse and a bluetooth keyboard. The phone is connected to my TV or my computer screen throug a HDMI cable. This works really good. Probably this solution will be the end of heavy laptops. Previously I used to have a Sony Xperia Xz but had problems with low capacity battery and very poor options for connecting gadgets to the USB C connector.
Wow Alex, I genuinely I had no idea you could do all this with the connector. Damn 🔥
Yeah and supposedly you can do much more with it! :)
Can you add flies from your galaxy to the flash drive?
Andrew Frayre Yes absolutely. You can transfer files in either direction.
*these*
I have one that lets you plug in an hdmi cable as well as a couple usb ports so you can also plug in a keyboard and mouse. I think it was normally for newer mac systems but works great for the galaxy s8+ for me.

FPSRussia you've been missed. Sheds a teardrop. Lol
You had me at the USB fan. Subscribed!

You deserve a subscription from me
I actually save those from every Samsung phone I get :) I have like 6 of them now :D Thanks for watching!
Thank you, like some many other commentors, mine has been sitting in be box my phone came in. I will definitely use it now.
Holy shit, technology these days is incredible!
ps. Love videos like these, high speed speech tips and info, easy to follow and actually useful and no bullshit. Insta-subbed.
awesome! Thanks! welcome to the channel!
I remember when i got otg in my n810, good times 👌
It's not technology, it's Samsung
Vsoundelend that is why I love Samsung.
yes you right this feature almost forgoten. no many user know this.
yeah, i know, but Android can do sooooo much!
Redskull veryyyyyy
I just got one with my new note 9 and I was wondering what it was for lol
Drinking game:
Every time he says otg connector, take a shot.
Best of luck

Hey, thanks for watching!
That's so they can sell you something else to do the job. Creative and curious people usually think twice to find a better and less expensive way.
my connector is sitting in my phone box ...wow
Most people don't know what it can be used for :)
Redskull I agreed...but why Samsung is not telling us all about it? They made the product..guys like you show us all the tricks ...thanks again
Same
I just thought it was to transfer files from the old phone. I should have been more creative.
Mine too and I thought I was a phone expert lmao 🤣🤣🤣🤣
You can also connect the stereo speakers, it would be amazing 🔥🔥
Can it really do the trick? Did you try?
Android dongle: comes with the phone, does everything.
Apple dongle: have to buy separately, can only be used to attach headphones.
yeah, a bit lame...
Love the icons on your phone where you get them?
I use Nova Launcher and the Glif Icon pack
You should definetly been one of the most followed reviewer, I bought a rugged phone based on your video and everything was verified with phone in my had. This one is another great video for someone like me who discovers new technologies as he goes. Keep doing great!
Wow, thanks!
What icon pack are you using for this video
Pls answer
Hey, he is using Nova Launcher and the Glif Icon Pack... Since he felt so big to reply to his subscribers.
Perry Zuokemepade thanks brother!! Have a nice day
Nice feature !
Nice Samsung Galaxy S9 Plus too !
Although you can use OTG adapter to play games, can you do a video that you can play games with gaming controller ?
Thanks! Yeah, you can do a whole bunch of stuff with that OTG connector!
It’s an android thing most android devices can do this and you can get otg hubs with multiple connectors.
I once connected an Xbox 360 controller, it works for some games :)
Well thank you for this video because I have a Samsung galaxy s9+
Thank you very much for watching!
One of the most useful smartphone-related videos on TH-cam. Great work!
Thanks for checking it out!
I had this lying in my S9 box for a year and didn't realise what it would be for. Thank you. This is a cool video.
Thanks for checking it out!
Let's go bowling niko
let's do it!
Hmmn. I hope samsung can make something where we can plug and power a refrigerator.
in a few years :)
Time to play pubg with my wireless keyboard
Sean Chris is that even possible?
wow thats pretty amazing, anyone know if you can use a usb hub and connect both a mouse and keyboard via OTG to complete own people on PUBG Mobile?
just plugged a Logitech wireless receiver into the otg and both the wireless mouse and keyboard work perfectly right out of the box
Relcan use a wireless mouse and a plug in keyboard
Can I use a bluetooth wireless keyboard with a regular dongle based mouse to play pubg mobile?
This was very informative! You just helped me solve some media uploading and down loading issues. Thank you.
Far more useful than any iPhone will ever be. I love my Note8 that I got last October. Switching from about 7 years of iPhone to Android was by far the best decision I have made.
Holy crap this guy is devoted to sounding like gru from despicable me. Nice illuminati checker board wall. Its creepy
Haha..ya man👍
The weird thing is that Russians have such a homophobic problem but for a country that hate gay people when they speak English they sound fucking gay
Does anyone know the name of the icon pack he's using on that phone?
i use Nova Launcher and the Glif icon pack
Redskull thankyou 😊
Can't find these in the store?
Thanks man. Actually iam searching for this comment after watching this video..
Was just looking for this myself. Thanks!
Hey Alex good to see u again... Ps 3 controller can be used via Bluetooth there is an app called (Axis ) available on playstore. it will detect the controller thanks me later anywayz....thumbs up
nice! Thanks for sharing, didn't know
it needs root , you forgot to mention that
Tahir Khan PS4 controllers work fine without a robot on the S9+
That usb fan is perfect for music festivals!! I had no idea they made those and now I know what to do with my OTG connector.
Wow. That blasted thing is very valuable. I'm gonna be using it allot now.
omg this is so useful! thanks a lot!
Thanks for watching!

Just bought Samsung Galaxy S9 Plus And this video is really helpful, thank you
Thanks for checking it out! Enjoy your new phone!
Does charging devices using ur phone damage battery?
No, because smartphones have built in BEC (battery elimination circuit) that regulates the rate at which it can charge and discharge to prevent such things from happening.
Can you plug in a USB printer/scanner to it and scan directly to your phone?
It depends on if there's software available for your printer on your phone
This is an idea! I will have to try this
You can use it to transfer your data from your old phone to your new one. The Smart Switch app is designed to be used with this. Good video.
absolutely, that's the first thing I do with any new Samsung phone
Samsung Smart Switch does it quicker over WiFi
Great vid alex!
hey, thanks a lot for watching!
This thing is powerful. Greetings from Brazil.
So I'm getting that the biggest thing you can do is burn through your battery with no way to charge it except to stop doing what you're doing so you can unplug it and connect a charger.

If so can you plug different things into it and switch back and forth between them?
And can you keep the phone charged through the powered hub while using it?
I didn't try using it with a powered usb hub. I was afraid it may damage the port and didn't want to take the chance
you could use a wireless charging dock
Brooklyn Crowe
Oh yeah. Lol
Thanks.
No clue why I didn't think of that. I blame the whiskey.
Any way to connect note 9 with projectors for presentations????
kibsha ayyaz look up USB type C to HDMI cable and I think I should work
Another youtuber used the otg to connect to a floppy disk drive.
that's pretty cool!
it's even possible to use an external cd dvd writer on OTG with certain phones, but you do need a cable with the extra male usb to supply power the writer attached to a usb wall charger.

thanks for checking out the video!
Normally it's used to transfer stuff from your old phone to the new one...
That's what i used it for
You can also use a Ethernet to USB adapter with the galaxy to get internet straight through ethernet
True! I remember doing that a few years back with a Note 4
Ok just read yalls comments. Say what now??
Yes this would useful at airport for example. Much faster speeds using Ethernet over WiFi.
I can connect my screen with HDMI cable
momama1988
Aren't HDMI cables double ended? Is there such a thing as a cable with an HDMI on one end and a USB on the other?

Apple - guys... Wireless charging!
Samsung - smh
Asif Azeez The S9 and S9+ both can charge wirelessly....
And S8 and S8+. Samsung has had that feature for 2 years.
Older phones than the s8 could do it too I forget the first s phone that had it

I think the point is Apple finally got and are excited about wireless charging and we shake our heads bc we've had it for a few generations already
