I totally agree with you, unfortunately my Pixel device with GrapheneOS doesn't have anything similar to Dex mode :(

I honestly think the market is waiting on Apple to do it.

I think they have been reluctant to have a full desktop mode as most users will not understand why they need the App Store on a “desktop”.

Now that side loading is being forced on them, I hope they bring this to the phones which will kickstart phones as computers.

Anyway, my iPhone 15 will be the last phone I have that doesn’t have a desktop mode. I’ll hold out for a long time.
