Landing with the March Pixel Drop, your Google Pixel phone can now become a mini PC thanks to Android's Desktop Mode.

This has been hidden in developer options for a while now, but they’re now releasing it officially. Limited to Pixel 8 and newer devices and no 4k yet.

    I have a 9a running Graphene and with a “usb C laptop dock” I can use it in “desktop mode”, but I would warn that it is still EXTREMELY buggy and finnicky.

    Still neat though.

        Just got another update yesterday but not sure if there’s any “desktop mode” changes in it. So far my complaint is “desktop mode” things I change/set do not carry over to my next “desktop mode” ?session?.
