Can you screen mirror a flip phone and use OTG?

I doubt it. Wouldn't you need to download Home? Plus, you would have to make sure it charged while a USB hub is connected, but I have only known Samsung branded phones to do this. But I guess if you had a better model. I am not sure.

Interesting question.

Wondering how viable this may be?

How to tell if your Android phone or tablet supports USB On-The-Go

I've been fascinated by what you can do with stuff at a budgeted price.

For non Smart monitors, you can plug in an old Chromecast, then get the free app, add in the details they ask you to input, then it is good to go. They are very cheap now, and you have to make sure they are on the same WiFi network. But I have noticed these Chromecasts misbehave a lot, and require frequent factory resets. However, I like how you can basically mirror your screen. Then you can rotate your device, and it is kind of like using a set top box. You can use a hub too, to plug in storage devices and so on, plus a mouse and a keyboard.

The only downside is that on your web browsers, they are not ideally going to look right, due to it being a mobile screen that has been cast to a bigger display, but the desktop version of sites is normally fine.

The pop up keyboard can be hidden with an app called External Keyboard Helper. So you can type without the on-screen keys taking up most of the screen.
