Now that I've been using a #PinebookPro for a while, I've effectively been working on a mobile phone SoC with an attached keyboard and screen.
I wonder if I can flip this on its head, and find a way to stick my phone into a docking station that acts as a USB-C charger and hub, into which I can then plug a USB keyboard, mouse and HDMI display.
The Ubuntu Phone of yore promised this; are there any contemporary Android efforts that go in a similar direction?
@xahteiwi Should work fine with either a Librem 5 or Pinephone if you are running an OS with convergence (PureOS and Mobian are examples). I'm typing this from a Librem 5 docked into a UPERFECT X Mini laptop dock (and before that a Nexdock 360) that is acting as my personal laptop and when docked it's basically a desktop OS. I've been using a set up like this for over a year now.
@kyle Excellent, thank you for the resource! This kind of deep dive is exactly what I'm looking for.
@xahteiwi I discuss it all in more detail with a number of photos in this post: https://puri.sm/posts/my-first-year-of-librem-5-convergence/
