I would really want to be able to hook up my sailfish mobile device to keyboard, mouse and display to use it as a (light-)desktop solution like Samsung DeX or Microsoft Continuum.
My current requirement would be proper mouse, keyboard and large display support, so I can surf the internet and write/read e-mails.

wauuu...this is great if will Sailfish x work like computer with mouse,keyboard and big screen like mini comp. I hope so that will be Sailfish os more functionality on next,next upgrade...two fingers up.
It does support mouse and keyboard, of course. It is a computer. For the display, we need Miracast support.

Try Bluetooth mouse and keyboard, you could get a surprise. If you have an Xperia X you can also try USB mouse and keyboard (provided you use an OTG cable and USB hub).

cemoi71 ( 2018-05-21 00:11:45 +0300 )editFor anything like this, it would be required to be able to run common desktop applications on Sailfish OS. Currently there's no realistic way to do so.
I should soon receive my Gemini PDA. I would love to use it with Sailfish as productivity device, but currently the only options seem to be Linux Deploy under Android or just a Debian installation.
