    I keep a lapdock in a quick go bag for the weekend or when I’m at my desk without my computer.

    I like dex, 80% of my computer usage is just Internet or quick server commands.

    My wife handles her YouTube channel 100% from her phone and having the option for a bigger screen for some task is great.

    I never understood why Google disabled display out via USBC, it comes built in on most chips.

      Doesn’t that require USB 3.x? Some of the Pixels have been USB-C 2.0.

      Probably also requires wiring up the correct lanes from the chipset and possibly even paying the manufacturer for that feature.

        They come correctly assigned from the chip manufacturer. The manufacturer supports DisplayPort over USB-C, and Google removed the code in their implementation.
