Tried a skinny endoscope?

I had one that used the phone screen but was sh!te so sent it back. It kept losing connection.
I recently bought an endoscope (2 metre cable version) for the grand sum of £1.52 including shipping from China !) and also found it kept losing the USB connection, when used with my Moto G14 phone and the manufacturer-suggested AN CAMERA app. However, when using the nExt CAMERA app (free of ads btw) the app reported that the phone was too slow for the received video feed and suggested reducing the resolution using the apps settings. That solved the problem, at the expense of a somewhat grainy but still acceptable image.
 
Got mine today, works OK on my Pixel9a, build quality is not so great, the bit where you can press the button to take a picture or adjust the light intensity seems to be coming apart. (not a problem for me).

Anyhoo, it's now in my armoury of tools.
 
I bought the Toolstation one. The kids across the road enjoyed playing with it - I haven't really used it yet!
Will report back.
