Recommended Cockpit Platform

I am using OpenCPN on an Android phone, Samsung Galexy 10+.

It is OK but has some issues. Recently it has crashed a couple of times and it is also some of the controls are just too darn small.

I have been using PyPilot and parts of the interface either do not work or are so small that I can not use them except in perfect conditions.

I have a RayMarine C80 and a cut out for that. It is on the side of the cockpit, in the seat back. It would be nice if I could find a way to mount a replacement there. It is not a great spot but all that is available. It means I have to be able to view from an pretty good angle. And gives an idea of the space available.

It would be very desirable to have power and other connectors come from the back.

First and foremost it needs to be a solid platform for OpenCPN.

Finally I am most decidedly NOT a computer geek, it needs to be a pretty simple platform.

I know I am asking a lot and there may be nothing that fits all criteria. Still thought it might be worth asking.

Many thanks.
