You can with at many android phones. The only big brand I know of is Samsung, but I use an iPhone, so I haven't bothered to look into how widely this is among Android devices.
Samsung have Dex which is basically this but for android devices obviously. It's "ok" but its still android underneath.
No, that is not at all what your link says. The article is talking about a specific software named "DeX for PC, Mac", DeX itself is not discontinued.
Whoops! I appreciate the correction; I'll leave the comment there in case someone else thinks the same thing.
Looks like they only discontinued pre-Windows 10 and MacOS support. Windows 10+ still seems to be supported.
It feels like we’re a long way from that but headed in that direction with everything being on the same architecture now. This was much harder to see with intel in the picture.
Apple is diametrically opposed to cannibalizing their own hardware market. If such a product ever does exist, it will likely exist in the form of an arbitrary $600 accessory.
If that were true as a general rule, they’d still be trying to sell iPods and you wouldn’t be able to play music from an iPhone…
The confusing, overlapping MacBook lineup at various times is at odds with this assessment, I'd have thought.
I don’t think we’ll ever see that. Without the plug, maybe, but with one? I don’t see that happen.
