I own a Xiaomi Redmi Note 9 smartphone that I don't use anymore because the tactile functionnality gets unresponsive every few minutes and can stay so for a few seconds up to hours.

The screen is working because it reacts to power and volume up/down buttons.

I realized recently that the mounting a usb-c to female usb-a adapter I could use the wireless dongle of my Microsoft wireless all in one keyboard/trackpad and control the smartphone that way. Sadly its usb-c port doesn't support external monitors so I haven't found any practical use for it. I guess I should look for a miracast dongle if such thing exists but that would limit the usage to home wlan I guess and not be as portable as I think it could.
