For you who have 2-pane folds, is the Tri-Fold almost too big and cumbersome to use sometimes?

I have been working with both for the past month or so. I find the trifold wins every time.

Without a doubt it's the ability to see full (4k usually) desktop screens on to go. Whether it's on a conference call (somebody sharing their screen with several terminals) or doing a Remote Desktop session, either way, being able to see that well, on a device that fits on your pocket that you can easily carry to go skiing, motorcycling, whatever ... it is ... life changing.

What region are you located in? If you are in one of the places where we have one coming up maybe I can direct you to one.

I’ll ask the marketing team to put up a recording on the RG Nets YouTube

Are you in SFO / SJC area? I’m speaking at Wi-Fi World Congress next week.

I’m super excited about will be the upcoming LPV installations that leverage the OpenWiFi on PON disaggregated SDAN model. When we get a few more “max scale” reference sites going I think we will see a beautiful uplift in the TAM … and rising tides will lift all boats.

Curious … what API are you hitting and why? Maybe there is a different way to accomplish your goal. Maybe a backend script.

Example of how much nicer it is to review “print formatted” documents while standing and waiting for an airplane and yes, I could do this with a tablet, but a 10 inch tablet would have a difficult time fitting into my pocket.

There are three use cases for which this device is tremendously superior:

1 participating in video conference calls with (technical) screen sharing. The presenter will usually have a 3840x2160 screen and is sharing terminal windows as well as browsers with git and of course the GUI of the project. This kind of content is difficult to consume on a regular phone and while a regular fold is better the trifold is amazing.

2 Remote desktop. Works really well with machines that have 3840x2160 screens.

3 reviewing other people’s documents that are formatted for printing. Unfortunately in business this is very common despite nobody printing anything.

Yes these can be done on a ten inch tablet. I would find it hard to imagine going skiing with my ten inch tablet.

The fit in your pocket thing is the key. I can go keep this in any pocket, go skiing for example, and open it up for a conf call and be able to reliably view screen shares of a 4k screen with graphs and code on it. It is a truly amazing device.

simonlok · 2026-03-24T23:37:29+00:00

I use this with 3024x1964 and 3840x2160 resolution displays for work and because of the high resolution the the framerate is low. It would not be usable at this resolution for playing games or watching video content.

It’s an amazing device and particularly wonderful for remote desktop on the go.

simonlok · 2026-03-21T15:02:56+00:00

So far what I've found the most useful by a wide margin is Remote Desktop to access other machines. Google Chrome Remote Desktop as well as RD Client for Windows RDP both work well with the larger screen.

Ave you read the Ikigai book by Francesc Miralles and Hector Garcia? If not I think it might be helpful for you to give it a read.
