Your Pixel can now double up as a full Android PC with nothing more than a USB-C cable - Lemmy.World

This has been hidden in developer options for a while now, but they’re now releasing it officially

And are there apps for normal desktop office work?

I’m surely not gonna use Google docs or Microsoft’s cloud clobber.

Any apps that are available on Android can be used with desktop mode, including Collabora and OnlyOffice. I assume there will be variable levels of optimization though since this is still so new.

So new, as in, it has been available forever, just not on google phones. But every other manufacturer has done it at one point or another in the last ten years if not more.

Yeah I’m not very familiar with the android landscape since everything that’s not GrapheneOS is a total shitshow. Sounds like app optimization may be less of a concern than I anticipated, that’s great
