I have both a Fold Z 3 and a S22 (both purchased on 3/11 from Verizon) and I want to use them as a PC replacement. I am confused as to what to do as when I look up a docking station, they only show for laptops and tablets, and DeX says it is built in but how do I connect USB devices? I look up actual DeX devices (station and pad) and they show they are only for Note 8/9/10. I need help determining what I need to get. Monitor, cables and what will give me the ability to attach USB and possible other memory cards.  Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Suggest going on YouTube and searching 'Fold Z 3 Dex' and S22 Dex'.

I have used my s10+ 1TB to connect to a hotel TV via a USB-C/HDMI cable and used the phone to navigate through DEX, but I could have easily attached a blue tooth keyboard and mouse.

Since then I now use Microsoft's Your Phone Companion to access my phone from my PC or laptop.
