I'm not the mirror. Don't spam this opinion section. Your fake opinion doesn't matter because it's not true

Try looking up Jcally, they usually make reliable dongles.

I personally like the wallpaper, not the best but I like it:) it hides the camera and chin very well, the optional animated lockscreen is good too.
